description | Operation of a mercury jet delivery system is presented. The delivery system is part of the Mercury Intense Target (MERIT) Experiment, a proof-of-principle experiment conducted at CERN in 2007 which demonstrated the feasibility of using an unconstrained jet of mercury as a target for a future Neutrino Factory or Muon Collider. The Hg system was designed to produce a 1-cm-diameter, 20 m/s Hg jet inside a high-field (15 Tesla), 15-cm-bore solenoid magnet. A high-speed optical diagnostic system allowed observation of the interaction of the jet with both 14- and 24-GeV proton beams. Performance of the Hg system during the in-beam experiment will be presented. |
