the limit of0.1 lbs/hour. e) For small pad TOF MRPC, measure the responses with incident beam particle angle. 0-90 degree with 10 data points. And vertical and horizontal scans similar to c) for long MRPC. f) With and without thin absorber, study muon beam efficiency and pion beam particle rejection. The beam particle momentum at 2,5, 10 GeV/c. g) With and without thick (3m steel) absorber, study muon beam efficiency and pion beam particle rejection at beam particle momentum of 120 GeV/c. III RESPONSIBILITIES BY INSTITUTION - NON 3.1 BNL: Setting up electronics, assemble MRPC and gas systems, readout CAMAC, test beam coordination, providing LDRD fund for the testing 3.2 USTC/China: providing long MRPC modules 3.3 Yale University: Wire Chamber and pic04 readout system 3.4 Rice University: MRPC FEE, tray box 3.5 University ofTexas/Austin: Assembly TOF tray and DAQ 3.6 UCLA: LVIHV power supplies IV. RESPONSIBILITIES BY INSTITUTION 4.1 ACCELERATOR DIVISION: 4.1.1 Use ofMTest beam as outlined in Section 2. 7 4.1.2 Maintenance of all existing standard beam line elements (SWICs, loss monitors, etc) instrumentation, controls, clock distribution, and power supplies. 4.1.3 Reasonable access to the experimenters' equipment in the test beam. 4.1.4 The Accelerator Division will provide the ability to independently control the 4.5 foot halfsections ofthe beam stop in enclosure MT6-section

4.1.5 The test beam energy and beam line elements will be under the control of the AD Operations Department Main Control Room (MCR). 4.1.6 Position and focus of the beam on the experimental devices under test will be under control of MCR. Control of secondary devices that provide these functions will be delegated to the experimenters as long as it does not violate the Shielding Assessment or provide potential for significant equipment damage. 4.2 PARTICLE PHYSICS DIVISION 4.2.1 The test-beam efforts in this MOU will make use of the Meson Test Beam Facility. Requirements for the beam and user facilities are given in Section

The Particle Physics Division will be responsible for coordinating overall activities in the MTest beam-line, including use of the user beam-line controls, readout of the beam-line detectors, and MTest gateway computer. 4.2.2 Scintillator/Cerenkov counters provided by facility for trigger and start time. 4.2.3 Test beam facility computing support as needed, although 2417 support may not be available 4.2.4 The test beam facility shall provide a table or cart upon which the counter assembly is mounted, with a total weight of 250 Ibs. The cart needs to provide vertical as well as horizontal motion to a precision of a few mm. PPD personnel will make modifications to mount the counter assembly and stabilize the load and to provide linear motion. The value of the position needs to be available. 4.3 COMPUTING DIVISION 4.3.1 Ethernet and printer should be available in the counting house. 4.3.2 Connection to beams control console and remote logging (ACNET) should be made available in the counting house. 4.3.3 Assistance with setup ofCAMAC system. 4.4 ES&H SECTION 4.4.1 Assistance with safety reviews. 8 -----------------------...--.~
