Description
The Fermilab Test Beam Facility (FTBF) is a high energy beam facility devoted to Detector R&D. The facility consists of two versatile beamlines (MTest and MCenter) in which users can test equipment or detectors. The MTest primary beamline consists of a beam of high energy protons (120 GeV) at moderate intensities (~1-300 kHz). This beam can also be targeted to create secondary, or even tertiary particle beams of energies down to below 1 GeV, consisting of pions, muons, and/or electrons. The MCenter beamline is very similar to the MTest beamline but is currently undergoing reconstruction. Further details can be found at http://www-ppd.fnal.gov/FTBF/.
