We request a total beam time of one month in the $\pi$E1.2 area. The preferred running period
would be to start on October 26. We need at least 14 days free access to
the area to mount and commission the experiment. The division of beam time is
listed in Table \ref{table:nonlin}. 

The proton measurements use a vacuum chamber which
surrounds a thin stopping target and silicon detectors. A germanium detector
views the target through a vacuum window. It provides the muon stopping rate
in the target by measuring the rate \atrn{2p}{1s} muonic X-rays.

The gamma and neutron measurements will use a thick target in air,
with minimal material near the target. The target has sufficient
thickness to fully stop the beam, and will allow an increase of the  beam
momentum with a subsequent higher stopping rate.
