The UA9 Experiment at the CERN-SPS
/ Losito, R (CERN) ; Laface, E (CERN) ; Scandale, W (CERN)
The UA9 experiment intends to assess the possibility of using bent silicon crystals as primary collimators to direct coherently the beam halo onto the secondary absorber, thus reducing out-scattering, beam losses in critical regions and radiation load. The experiment will be performed in the CERN-SPS in storage mode with a 120 or 270 GeV/c proton beam. [...]

Simulation results for crystal collimation experiment in SPS UA9
/ Laface, E (CERN) ; Scandale, Walter (CERN) ; Cavoto, G (INFN, Rome) ; Peggs, S (Brookhaven)
The UA9 experiment will first take place in 2009 at the CERN-SPS and will evaluate the feasibility of silicon crystals as primary collimators for a storage ring. A crystal placed at 6 σ from the beam core will deviate protons towards two Roman Pots and a tungsten absorber (TAL). [...]

Crystal Collimation efficiency measured with the Medipix detector in SPS UA9 experiment.
/ Laface, E (CERN) ; Scandale, W (CERN) ; Tlustos, L (CERN) ; Ippolito, V (INFN, Rome)
The UA9 experiment was performed in 6 MDs from May to November 2009 with the goal of studying the collimation properties of a crystal in the framework of a future exploitation in the LHC collimation system. An important parameter evaluated for the characterization of the crystal collimation is the efficiency of halo extraction when the crystal is in channeling mode. [...]

Manipulation of hadron beams with bent crystals in circular accelerators
/ Rossi, R (CERN ; INFN, Rome) ; Cavoto, G (INFN, Rome) ; Redaelli, S (CERN) ; Scandale, W (CERN)
/UA9
Over the past years the understanding and use of coherent interactions of charged particles with ordered crystal lattices has achieved excellent results. Improving collimation of hadron beams in circular accelerators, like the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) of the European Council for Nuclear Research (CERN), it is one of the possible applications. [...]

Apparatus and Experimental Procedures to Test Crystal Collimation
/ Montesano, S (CERN ; Orsay, LAL ; INFN, Rome2) ; Scandale, W (CERN ; Orsay, LAL ; INFN, Rome2)
/for the UA9 Collaboration
UA9 is an experimental setup operated in the CERN-SPS in view of investigating the feasibility of halo collimation assisted by bent crystals. The test collimation system is composed of one crystal acting as primary halo deflector in the horizontal plane and an absorber. [...]

Improvements of the crystal routine for collimation studies
/ Mirarchi, D (CERN) ; Redaelli, S (CERN) ; Scandale, W (CERN) ; Taratin, A M (JINR) ; Yazynin, I (IHEP)
A routine has been implemented to simulate interactions of protons with bent crystals in the collimation version of SixTrack. This routine is optimized in view of producing high-statistics tracking simulations of collimation cleaning assisted by bent crystals. [...]
