| Abstract | Abstract Abstract
An option of background suppression at a rapidity greater than 4.0 for the muon arm area proposed in this report. An open geometry of the beam pipe is used in this option. The Meissner shield of the dipole magnetic field combined with a passive absorber creates softer background environments for the muon spectrometer than in the option presented in the ALICE Technical Proposal (TP) [1] Â [2]. First results of this study can be found in Report at ISHEPPXIV, Dubna 1998 [3]. |
