INTRODUCTION
MuSIC facility
The process in MuSIC facility:

At first, protons are accelerated in the MuSIC
facility.

Then, they will impact with a target to produce
p+ or p–.


m+, m– are emitted in p+, p– in the decay
process.
Last, particles will be detected by detector.
detector
target
proton
Particles (m+, m) are detected by a detector with
2 scintillators and 1 target.

The detector consists of
2 scintillators and 1
target.
2
scintillators have same
size 380x50x3.5 mm3
 Target is made of Mg.
The size of target:
370x80x20mm3
In this study, by using Geant4 simulation:
 First, without using dipole magneticfield(By=0T), the acceptance of detector is
determined.
 Using dipole magnetic-field (By = ±0.04T),
evaluate the acceptances of detector.
MOTIVATION
Evaluate efficiency of muon between beamline
and captured muon.
 Consider about detector acceptance. Detector
acceptance is defined as ratio between number
of detected e+ or e– and number of incident m+
or m–at detector.

RESULTS

For By=0T,

SUMMARY
In this research, with 0.1mA-proton beam,
numbers of p+,p,m+,m,e+,eー were estimated
 The detector acceptances were calculated.
