  • Abstract
    A pion channel has been designed and nearly completed that will provide a good quality, high intensity pion beam of energies up to 300 MeV. Important channel features are a vertical bend plane, close alignment tolerances, short channel length, and remote handling near the production target. These features influenced the mechanical design of the magnets, support and alignment, collimation system, vacuum system, and shielding.
