چکیده
Recent IHEP Protvino experiments show efficiencies of crystal-assisted slow extraction and collimation of 85.3±2.8%, at the intensities of the chan-neled beam on the order of 10 12 proton per spill of ∼2 s duration. The obtained experimental data well follows the theory predictions. We compare the measurements against theory and outline the theoretical potential for further improvement in the efficiency of the technique. This success is important for the efficient use of IHEP accelerator and for implementation of crystal-assisted collimation at RHIC and slow extraction from AGS onto E952, now in preparation. Future applications, spanning in the energy from order of 1 GeV (scraping in SNS, slow extraction from COSY and medical accelerators) to order of 1 TeV and beyond (scraping in Tevatron, LHC, VLHC), can benefit from these studies.

We give a crystal structure on the set of all irreducible components of Lagrangian subvarieties of quiver varieties. One can show that, as a crystal, it is isomorphic to the crystal base of an irreducible highest weight representation of a quantized universal enveloping algebra.
متن کاملOn Possibility of Crystal Extraction and Collimation at 0.1-1 GeV
Bent crystal situated in a circulating beam can serve for efficient slow extraction or active collimation of the beams. This technique, well established at 10-1000 GeV, could be efficient also at the energies as low as 0.1-10 GeV according to the computer simulations presented in this paper. Applications might include halo scraping in the Spallation Neutron Source or slow extraction from synchr...

Silicon crystal was channeling and extracting 70-GeV protons from the U-70 accelerator with efficiency of 85.3±2.8% as measured for a beam of ∼10 12 protons directed towards crystals of ∼2 mm length in spills of ∼2 s duration. The experimental data follow very well the prediction of Monte Carlo simulations. This success is important to devise a more efficient use of the U-70 accelerator in Prot...

Recent progress in application of higher order QCD calculations to jet and inclusive particle production in photon induced collisions is reviewed. Attention is paid to theoretical uncertainties of such calculations, particularly those coming from the choice of renormalization and factorization scales.
متن کامل00 1 A Study of RHIC Crystal Collimation
The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) will experience increasing longitudinal and transverse heavy ion emittances, mostly due to intra-beam scattering (IBS). The experiments in RHIC are expected to not only have reduced luminosi-ties due to IBS but also an unwanted beam halo. Primary betatron collimators will be used to remove the large amplitude particles. The efficiency of the primary co...
