Beams for European Neutrino Experiments
WP4 COLLECTOR

Main Objectives

The major motivation of this group is that the Collection System for the high intensity neutrino beams foreseen in SuperBeam and ultimatly Neutrino Factory projects will have to keep up with unprecedent challenging conditions.  

The group will focus on "horn" technology those general principles are well known but it will push the concept at the limits. To do so, it will take benefit of the experience of the Europeen CNGS horn presently in construction, and also on gathering experience of past and present european and non-european neutrino beam horn designs.

So, the main objectives are:

• identify the community in Europe interested in Collector studies ;
• form a network within this community;
• reinforce the links with Japan and the US collegues through the Neutrino Beam Instrumentation workshops;
• propose a programme of study for a bid to an EC Design Study;
• identify and propose the necessary R&D efforts to get the optimum Collector for a SuperBeam and a Neutrino Factory project

Meetings

Collector  meetings will take place in conjunction with both BENE and European Neutrino Group meetings. In addition, combined Target and Collector workshops are planned, as well as presentation of some status work in other WP meetings.
