Description

  • Content Description: In this document the authors outline a program of Muon Scattering Physics at the Fermilab Tevatron which goes beyond that possible with the currently installed E665 apparatus. The E665 experiment was proposed in 1980/81 and recently completed its first period of data taking. At this stage it is appropriate to review the directions of the program which was always intended to cover many periods of data taking. In the first section of this report we summarize the data taken during the period and attempt to characterize the physics results which we hope to achieve with that data. They do not anticipate major upgrades before the next run. They describe, in the second section, a program of measurements which they expect to make in that running period. They then itemize briefly the future physics which is possible with the excellent muon beam and a modified apparatus. This is in four parts, two of which involve moderate upgrades to the apparatus. At the present time both of these options appear very attractive to the collaboration and they intend to pursue both at this stage. The timescale to implement each is such that testing of apparatus towards the end of the next run is a possibility. From their point of view, it is very desirable that the PAC reacts to their plans so that more intense attempts to organize funding may be made. It should be pointed out that as well as the two funding agencies in the US, two in Germany will also be involved.
