An updated HL-LHC halo population model based on recent experimental measurements
/ Rakic, Milica (CERN ; Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; Hermes, Pascal Dominik (CERN) ; Redaelli, Stefano (CERN)
The transverse beam halo population in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been found to carry a significant fraction of the total stored beam energy, potentially reaching several percent. With the anticipated increase in beam brightness for the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC), this poses an increasing risk to machine safety, particularly during abrupt orbit shifts or critical component failures.

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.

Characterization of bent crystals for beam collimation with 6.8 TeV proton beams at the LHC
/ D'Andrea, Marco (CERN) ; Aberle, Oliver (CERN) ; Abramov, Andrey (CERN) ; Bandiera, Laura (INFN, Ferrara) ; Bruce, Roderik (CERN) ; Cai, Rongrong (CERN ; EPFL-ISIC, Lausanne) ; Calviani, Marco (CERN) ; Demassieux, Quentin (CERN) ; Dewhurst, Kay Alana (CERN) ; Di Castro, Mario (CERN) et al.
The concept of crystal collimation exploits the peculiar properties of crystalline materials to deflect high-energy beam particles at angles orders of magnitude larger than what can be achieved with scattering by conventional materials used as primary collimators. This innovative technique is planned to be used to improve the collimation efficiency with heavy-ion beams at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and its High-Luminosity upgrade (HL-LHC). [...]

LHC crystal collimation tests with 6.8 Z TeV Pb beams

In the next heavy ion runs at the LHC, the cleaning of the beam halo will rely on crystal collimation. A test system installed in the collimation cleaning insertion is being upgraded for the operational challenges of the ion runs. [...]

Crystal collimation performance at the LHC with a 6.8 TeV proton beam

Crystal collimation is studied to improve the collimation efficiency with ion beams at the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). Bent crystals are used instead of conventional primary collimators to deflect high-energy halo particles at angles orders of magnitude larger than what can be achieved with scattering by conventional materials.

Performance of a double-crystal setup for LHC fixed-target experiments
/ Dewhurst, K A (CERN) ; D'Andrea, M (CERN) ; Hermes, P D (CERN) ; Mirarchi, D (CERN) ; Redaelli, S (CERN) ; Patecki, M (Warsaw U. of Tech.)
The Physics Beyond Colliders (PBC) studies at CERN address the possibility to utilise protons in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) for a fixed-target program beyond the colliding-beam physics. As part of PBC, a double-crystal test stand is considered for installation in the LHC off-momentum collimation Insertion Region (IR) 3. [...]

The LHC heavy-ion program with $^{208}$Pb$^{82+}$ beams will benefit from a significant increase of the beam intensity when entering its High-Luminosity era in Run~3 (2023). The stored energy is expected to surpass 20~MJ per beam. [...]
