The beta-beam concept for the generation of electron neutrino beams
was first proposed by Piero Zucchelli in 2002. The idea created
quite a stir, challenging the idea that intense neutrino beams only
could be produced from the decay of pions or muons in classical
neutrino beams facilities or in future neutrino factories. The
concept initially struggled to make an impact but the hard work by
many machine physicists, phenomenologists and theoreticians over
the last five years has won the beta-beam a well-earned position as
one of the frontrunners for a possible future world laboratory for
high intensity neutrino oscillation physics. This is the first
complete monograph on the beta-beam concept. The book describes
both technical aspects and experimental aspects of the beta-beam,
providing i) students and scientists with an insight into the
possibilities offered by beta-beams; ii) facility designers with a
starting point for future studies; and iii) policy makers with a
comprehensive picture of the limits and possibilities offered by a
beta-beam.
