Simulations of the high energy beam transport section (HEBT) at FRANZ — •Ole Hinrichs, Christine Claessens, Manuel Heilmann, Oliver Meusel, Daniel Noll, Rene Reifarth, Stefan Schmidt, Malte Schwarz, and Kerstin Sonnabend — Goethe-Universität Frankfurt
The Frankfurt Neutron Source at the Stern-Gerlach-Zentrum (FRANZ) currently under construction
will deliver a proton beam of up to 20 mA constant current with energies between 1.8 MeV and 2.2 MeV.
This facility aims at exploring proton- and neutron-induced reactions of astrophysical interest.
The high proton flux is well suited for studying nuclear reactions related to the nucleosynthesis
of the p-nuclei, which might yield hints on the physics of type Ia supernovae.
Furthermore, FRANZ will offer the opportunity to measure radiative neutron capture reactions
for unstable branch point nuclei of the s-process.
We will present the current status of the beam line up to the BaF2 calorimeter.
This contribution will focus on simulations to optimise beam transport
and phase space distribution with respect to an optimised beam spot size.
This project is supported by the DFG (SO907/2-1) and
the Helmholtznachwuchsgruppe VH-NG-327.
