Measurement of the muon flux in a SPS test beam for the SHiP experiment — •Stefan Bieschke, Caren Hagner, Daniel Bick, Joachim Ebert, and Walter Schmidt-Parzefall — Universität Hamburg, Institut für Experimentalphysik, Luruper Chaussee 149, 22761 Hamburg

The SHiP experiment is a proposed beam dump experiment at CERN, dedicated to the Search for Hidden Particles. A high intensity, 400 GeV proton spill from the SPS delivered to a beam dump produces a large number of muons that need to be diverted from the detector. Knowledge of both the flux and the spectrum of the muons is crucial in order to design and optimize a magnetic muon shield for the hidden sector detector. Therefore, in a mid 2018 SPS test beam experiment, a replica of the proposed SHiP target will be used as beam dump and after a hadron stop, drift tubes will be placed as muon tracker and spectrometer.
