st.steel inserts in collimator cave sweep magnet
Tim,
I am reviewing the simulation geometry for the collimator cave, and note
that there are rectangular inserts filling the region between the poles
of the permanent magnet that serves as sweep magnet number 1. The
material for these inserts is stainless steel. This is quite a lot of
steel, and plays an important role in stopping fast muons that are
generated in the primary collimator. I just wanted to check to make
sure that these inserts are in the drawings. They are rectangular and
come up to the elliptical beam pipe. The simulation results showed that
we do not need to worry about filling the corners around the beam pipe;
just leaving a rectangular hole for the elliptical beam pipe is fine.
