Design and multiparticle simulation of the half integer slow extraction system for the main injector

One of the roles of the main injector ring in the second phase of the Fermilab upgrade is to deliver year-round slow extracted 120-GeV test beams. The half-integer slow extraction system design and results from a Monte Carlo simulation of fast spill are presented. The simulation was performed with a computer tracking program based on the TEVLAT program with a large number of particles (up to 1000). Particle tracking included the systematic errors produced by the magnetic multipoles with the dipoles and quadrupoles as well as random multipole errors.<
