Description
The report presents an overview the results of IHEP activity in the field of study and using bent crystals to steer high-energy particle beams obtained during 1987-2012. The hardware installed to study crystal beam splitting, collimation and extraction is described. It has been shown that the crystal deflectors developed are capable of sustaining long-term operation to deliver high-energy extracted beams for fixed-target physics. First results on the extraction 24.1 GeV/nucleon carbon ions are also presented.
