3.2 The Paul Scherrer Institute beam lines
The beam lines at PSI are responsible for carrying the proton beam from the
ring accelerator to the production targets and experimental areas. Figure 3.5
shows the beam lines in the PSI experimental hall. The proton beam is split
into three beams two of which lead to a production targets in different
sections of the experimental hall. Users are given the responsibility of
controlling the magnets in the beamline after the production target in order to
achieve the beam tune they desire.
