Measurement of the natC(n,p) and natC(n,d) reactions from n_TOF at CERN
/ n_TOF Collaboration
The energy dependence of the cross section of the (n,p) and (n,d) reactions on $^\text{nat}$C has been studied for the first time at the n_TOF facility at CERN, from the particle detection threshold up to 25 MeV. The measurement was performed with two telescopes made of position-sensitive silicon $ΔE$-$E$ detectors, covering the angular range from 20° to 140°. [...]

Neutron capture measurements for s-process nucleosynthesis
/ n_TOF Collaboration
This article presents a review about the main CERN n_TOF contributions to the field of neutron-capture experiments of interest for s-process nucleosynthesis studies over the last 25 years, with a special focus on the measurement of radioactive isotopes. A few recent capture experiments on stable isotopes of astrophysical interest are also discussed. [...]

Crystal collimation of heavy-ion beams at the Large Hadron Collider
/ Redaelli, S (CERN) ; Aberle, O (CERN) ; Abramov, A (CERN) ; Bruce, R (CERN) ; Cai, R (CERN ; LPHE, Lausanne) ; Calviani, M (CERN) ; D'Andrea, M (CERN) ; Demassieux, Q (CERN) ; Dewhurst, K (CERN) ; Di Castro, M (CERN) et al.
An important upgrade has been deployed for the collimation system of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) for lead-ion beams that are already planned to reach their high-luminosity target intensity upgrade in the ongoing LHC Run 3 (2022–2026). While certain effects like e-cloud, beam-beam, impedance, injection, and dump protection are relaxed with ion beams, halo collimation becomes an increasing challenge, as the conventional multistage collimation system is about two orders of magnitude less efficient than that for proton beams.

The HEARTS EU Project and Its Initial Results on Fragmented High-Energy Heavy-Ion Single-Event Effects Testing
/ García Alía, Rubén (CERN) ; Waets, Andreas (CERN ; Zurich U.) ; Coronetti, Andrea (CERN ; IES, Montpellier) ; Bilko, Kacper (CERN ; Jean Monnet U.) ; Delrieux, Marc (CERN) ; Emriskova, Natalia (CERN) ; Esposito, Luigi (CERN) ; Fraser, Matthew (CERN) ; Johnson, Eliott (CERN) ; Klimek, Karolina (CERN) et al.
We perform single-event effect (SEE) tests with well-characterized fully fragmented (i.e., beyond Bragg peak) high-energy heavy-ion beams and compare the results with those expected from conventional, mono-linear energy transfer (mono-LET) measurements, showing a satisfactory level of agreement between the two. This compliance paves the way for the exploitation of simulation tools for accurately quantifying the ion fragmentation impact on SEE rates for both ground-level testing conditions and space galactic cosmic-ray (GCR) environments, with electronics operating behind significant thicknesses of shielding.
