文摘This paper presents a conceptual design for the first tentative surface muon source based on the proton beam provided by China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS). We have calcu- lated the optimal parameters of solid muon target, in which the method of Monte Carlo simula- tion is used to obtain the optimal muon beam parameters, such as beam fiuence rate, momentum spread and phase space distribution. A simple muon transport beamline system was also designed, which could transport the muons emitted from the muon target into the experimental area, where positrons from muon decay in a test sample are detected by a spectrometer. The beam optics of this new beam line is also described.
