Bend the beam by 45 degree

When we bend the beam by 45 degree, there were too much current on the scintilator. Gun grid voltage is lowered to lower the current.

We placed a permanent dipole magnet to sweep the beam. The sweeping magnet added to the end of the 3rd triplet magnets to sweep the beam.
