CERN’s accelerator complex offers a great variety of multi-purpose test-beam facilities. In this presentation, an overview of the secondary beams derived from proton beams extracted from the Proton Synchrotron (PS) to the East Hall and from the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) to the North Hall facilities will be given. The available secondary particle beam momenta range from 0.5 GeV/c up to 10...

We present status of and future plans for the various electron test beam lines at SLAC. The presentation will focus on ESTB, the End Station (A) Test Beam, which after rebuilds during 2017, will continue to deliver 2 to 16 GeV primary electrons (10^9) per pulse, or single electron (1-100) per pulse at 5Hz rate.

The PiM1 beam line at PSI has been employed during the last years mainly for detector tests and irradiation experiments. The beam momentum ranges from 10 to 500 MeV/c and the particle mixture includes electrons, muons, pions and protons. Recently, the momentum dependent fractional composition of negatively charged beam was measured by employing the time of flight (TOF) technique. The resulting...

The DAFNE BTF (beam-test facility) can provide electrons and positrons, tuning at runtime different beam parameters: energy (from about 50 MeV up to 750 MeV for e- and 540 MeV for e+), intensity (from single particle up to 1010/bunch) and pulse length (in the range 1.5–40 ns) up to 49 Hz, depending on the operations of the DAFNE collider.
The beam spot and divergence can be adjusted, down...

The Fermilab Test Beam Facility is a world class facility for testing and characterizing particle detectors. The facility has been in operation since 2005 and has undergone significant upgrades in the last three years. A second beam line with cryogenic support has been added, the process for getting beam has been streamlined, and the facility has adopted a unified data acquisition system. With...

In the framework of the CERN Neutrino Platform project, two extensions of the existing SPS North Area “H2” and “H4” secondary beam lines, able to provide low-energy charged particles with momenta between 0.4 and 12 GeV/c, have been designed. An overview of the design as well as the parameters of these ‘very low energy’ beam lines are summarized in this presentation. Results from simulations...
