为了满足μ介子对撞机和基于μ介子储存环的中微子工厂对强μ介子束的需求，产生了1-4 MW质子束入射到20 T螺线管磁体内部的移动靶的概念，其中汞射流作为优选示例。这种系统的新技术问题包括质子束对汞射流的破坏和射流进入螺线管时的变形，以及材料寿命和在强辐射环境中处理活化材料的更传统的问题。作为中微子工厂和μ子对撞机合作的研发计划的一部分，与靶向有关的研发工作正在BNL E951的范围内进行，其第一个结果在这里讨论，并在其他贡献给本次会议。
The need for intense muon beams for muon colliders and for neutrino factories based on muon storage rings leads to a concept of 1-4 MW proton beams incident a moving target that is inside a 20-T solenoid magnet, with a mercury jet as a preferred example. Novel technical issues for such a system include disruption of the mercury jet by the proton beam and distortion of the jet on entering the solenoid, as well as more conventional issues of materials lifetime and handling of activated materials in an intense radiation environment. As part of the R&D program of the Neutrino Factory and Muon Collider Collaboration, R&D effort related to targetry is being performed within the context of BNL E951, first results of which are discussed here and in other contributions to this conference.
