Description
We describe a solenoid capture system suitable for producing an intense muon beam for eventual injection into either a neutrino factory storage ring or a muon collider ring. This arrangement allows for the capture and transport of muons of both charge states. An initial configuration featuring a low-Z solid target is envisioned for a 1-MW proton driver beam, while maintaining an upgrade path to 4-MW operation, perhaps with a liquid-jet target.
