  1. 103. Goals and Plans for Initial Crystal Collimation Tests at the LHC
    Dr Stefano Redaelli (CERN)
    10/10/2014, 09:00
    Invited talk
    Two bent crystals have been installed in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) for crystal collimation studies of horizontal and vertical halos, with proton and ion beams at energies close to 7*Z TeV. In addition to demonstrating the feasibility of crystal channeling at these unprecedented beam energies, these tests are targeted at addressing specific beam collimation issues at the LHC and its High...

  2. 96. Measurements of Coherent Interactions in Silicon Bent Crystals with 400 GeV Proton at CERN H8
    Mr Roberto Rossi (CERN)
    10/10/2014, 09:30
    Oral
    The UA9 experiment is investigating the feasibility of crystal-assisted collimation for high-energy hadron colliders. A crucial milestone towards this goal is the characterization of single-pass response of crystals with high-energy hadron beams. At CERN, this is done by using beams from the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) extracted at 400 GeV/c in the H8 extraction line for fixed-target...

  3. 163. About Multiple Scattering of High Energy Protons in Crystal Deflectors
    Dr Alexander Taratin (Joint Institute for Nuclear Research)
    10/10/2014, 09:50
    Oral
    The process of multiple scattering of high energy protons in a silicon crystal at its amorphous orientation was studied by simulation of proton trajectories in the model of binary collisions and by simulation of the sequences of proton collisions with atoms when their impact paramters are randomly and uniformly distributed on the symmetry cell for a given crystallography direction. The value...

  4. 16. A Model for the Interaction of High-Energy Particles in Straight and Bent Crystals Implemented in Geant4
    Enrico Bagli (FE)
    10/10/2014, 10:10
    Oral
    Monte Carlo simulations of the interaction of particles with matter are usually done with downloadable toolkits such as Geant4 and Fluka. We present a general model for the simulation of orientational effects in straight and bent crystals for high energy charged particles. It allows the manipulation of particle trajectories by means of straight and bent crystals and the scaling of the cross ...

  5. 86. Recent Advances in the FLUKA Event Generator for Crystal Channeling
    Dr Philippe Schoofs (CERN)
    10/10/2014, 10:30
    Oral
    Channeling in bent crystals is more and more frequently considered as an option for collimating high-energy beams. The installation of crystals in the LHC, having taken place during this past year, aims at demonstrating the feasibility of multi-stage crystal-assisted collimation and possibly improving cleaning efficiency [1]. Energy deposition studies in the LHC are routinely performed with...

  6. 83. A Crystal Routine for Collimation Studies in Circular Proton Accelerators
    Mr Daniele Mirarchi (CERN)
    10/10/2014, 10:50
    Oral
    A routine has been developed 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 for the highly efficient LHC collimation system. The routine has recently been reviewed after detailed comparison with experimental data, benchmark with other codes and improved modelling...
