考虑了载流靶上质子在锂透镜和四极衰变通道中产生的介子束。来自费米实验室助推器的8GeV质子束被用来为用于电离冷却演示的MUCOOL实验提供介子束。该方案还可以用散裂中子源的1GeV质子束的一小部分来产生µ子束。对整个系统进行了蒙特卡罗模拟。对于这两种情况，都对靶镜和匹配锂透镜进行了优化。结果表明，这样的装置，再加上一个基于四极磁铁的廉价衰变通道，无论有没有射频腔，都能产生相当强的聚束介子束。
Generation of muon beams with protons on a current-carrying target followed by a lithium lens and a quadrupole decay channel is considered. A 8 GeV proton beam from the Fermilab Booster is used to provide a muon beam for the MUCOOL experiment for ionization cooling demonstration. The proposed scheme can also be used to create muon beams with a fraction of a 1 GeV proton beam of the Spallation Neutron Source. Monte Carlo simulations of the entire system are performed. For both cases optimization of the target and matching lithium lens is done. It is shown that such a set followed by an inexpensive decay channel based on quadrupole magnets with and without RF cavities provides a rather intense bunched muon beam.
