Abstract

One of the roles of the main injector ring in the second phase of the Fermilab upgrade is to deliver year-round slow extracted 120-GeV test beams. The half-integer slow extraction system design and results from a Monte Carlo simulation of fast spill are presented. The simulation was performed with a computer tracking program based on the TEVLAT program with a large number of particles (up to 1000). Particle tracking included the systematic errors produced by the magnetic multipoles with the dipoles and quadrupoles as well as random multipole errors.<>
