“…[49]), a solenoid with axis of symmetry along the proton beam and target direction has the effect of transforming radial components of momemntum into azimuthal (angular) momentum. So, while it prevents the secondary beam from becoming larger, it does not by itself focus the secondaries toward a detector.…”

Neutrino beams at from high-energy proton accelerators have been instrumental discovery tools in particle physics. Neutrino beams are derived from the decays of charged π and K mesons, which in turn are created from proton beams striking thick nuclear targets. The precise selection and manipulation of the π/K beam control the energy spectrum and type of neutrino beam. This article describes the physics of particle production in a target and manipulation of the particles to derive a neutrino beam, as well as numerous innovations achieved at past experimental facilities.
