| WP | 8: Collimators & materials for higher beam power beam |
| Task | 8.1: ColMat Coordination & Communication |
| Abstract | Within the frame of the EuCARD program, the GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung in Darmstadt is performing accelerator R&D in workpackage 8: ColMat. The coordinated effort is focussed on materials aspects important for building the FAIR accelerator facility at GSI and the LHC upgrade at CERN. Accelerator components and especially protection devices have to be operated in high dose environments. The radiation hazard occurs either by the primary proton and ion beams or the secondary radiation after initial beam loss. Detailed numerical simulations have been carried out to study the damage caused to solid targets by the full impact of the LHC beam as well as the SPS beam. Tungsten, copper and graphite as possible collimator materials have been studied. Experimental an theoretical studies on radiation damage on materials used for the LHC upgrade and the FAIR accelerators are performed at the present GSI experimental facilities. Technical decisions based on these results will have an impact on the FAIR component specications. A cryogenic ion-catcher prototype will be constructed and tested. The ion-catcher is essential for reaching highest heavy ion beam intensities in SIS100. The prototype will be setup at GSI to perform measurements with heavy ion beams of synchrotron SIS18. |
