Realistic Modeling of the Muon g-2 Experiment Beamlines at Fermilab
Abstract
The main goal of the Muon g−2 Experiment at Fermilab
(E989) is to measure the muon anomalous magnetic
moment (aμ, also dubbed as the "anomaly") to unprecedented
precision. This new measurement will allow to test the
completeness of the Standard Model (SM) and to validate other
theoretical models beyond the SM. Simulations of the
beamlines from the pion production target to the entrance of the
g−2 Storage Ring (SR) using COSY INFINITY
contribute to the understanding and characterization of the muon
beam production in relation to the statistical and systematic
uncertainties of the E989 measurement. The effect of
nonlinearites from fringe fields and high-order contributions on
the beam delivery system performance are considered, as
well as interactions with the beamline elements apertures,
particle decay channels, spin dynamics, and beamline
misalignments.
