Advantages of 120 GeV Main InjectorThe (very successful) past:

Fermilab E866/NuSeaFermilab E866/NuSea Data in 1996-1997 1H, 2H, and nuclear targets 800 GeV proton beam

The future:

Fermilab E906Fermilab E906 Data taking planned in 2010 1H, 2H, and nuclear targets 120 GeV proton Beam

produced hadrons. Larger multiple scattering for the muon

traveling through hadron absorber and solid magnet.

Worse duty factor for beam structure. Higher singles rates.

Extracting d-bar/-ubar From Drell-Yan ScatteringRatio of Drell-Yan cross sections

(in leading order—E866 data analysis confirmed in NLO)

Global NLO PDF fits which include E866 cross section ratios agree with E866 results

Fermilab E906/Drell-Yan will extend these measurements and reduce statistical uncertainty.

E906 expects systematic uncertainty to remain at approx. 1% in cross section ratio.

Acceptance sitting at large x_beam due to the small beam energy. Acceptance sitting at large x_beam due to the small beam energy.

Outline of Feasibility Study• Momentum profile of secondary beams from 120-GeV

primary proton hitting 400mm Be target. Proton flux is assumed to be 1*1012 /per spill.

• Drell-Yan cross sections from beam interacting with LH2 target.

• E906 acceptance evaluated by E906 FastMC.• Final yield (= # of beam * # of target/area * DY cross

section * E906 Acceptance) as a function of beam momentum for beam.

• Repeat the study for the case of 980-GeV proton beam.• Summary table.

DY Cross Section, Target and Acceptance

• DY cross section is calculated utilizing the proton and pion PDF functions in the CENRLIB “pdflib”. A cut on M>1.0 GeV/c2 is imposed.

• 20-inches long LH2 target.• Three configurations of the focusing magnet

(KMAG):– I=1000: Low dimuon-mass– I=2000: Intermediate dimuon-mass– I=2750: Large dimuon-mass

Summary• A extremely small yield of pion-induced DY

measurement (~1/per year) at intermediate-mass region is estimated under the current beam and detector configuration for FNAL E906.

• Possible ways for increasing the production rate:– Increase of beam intensity: x10– Increase of momentum bite: x5 (1% 5%)– Increase of target length: x2– Usage of NH3 target: x5– Optimization of detection acceptance: x2

• Measurement of low-mass DY events is possible and interesting.
