Summary of Session on Beam Losses, Halo Generation and Collimation
نویسنده
چکیده
The session on beam losses, halo generation and collimation is the first of two sessions of the BEAM07 Workshop, which were devoted to specific CERN-GSI subjects and were meant to be the follow up of last year’s CERNGSI Bilateral Meeting on Collective Effects, which took place on March 30-31, 2006 at the GSI-Darmstadt.

Collimation with hollow electron beams.
A novel concept of controlled halo removal for intense high-energy beams in storage rings and colliders is presented. It is based on the interaction of the circulating beam with a 5-keV, magnetically confined, pulsed hollow electron beam in a 2-m-long section of the ring. The electrons enclose the circulating beam, kicking halo particles transversely and leaving the beam core unperturbed. By ac...
متن کاملThe TESLA Post-linac Collimation System
1 Introduction In high-energy physics colliders, the 'halo' particles surrounding the core of the beams would cause intolerable background in the physics detectors if not removed. Collima-tion systems consisting of mechanical 'spoilers' on the order of a radiation length are placed close to the beam and used to 'scrape' the halo particles off: the particles scattered by the spoilers are then co...
متن کاملBeam Loss and Collimation in the Fermilab 16 Gev Proton Driver∗
A high beam power of 1.15 MW in the proposed 16-GeV Proton Driver [1] implies serious constraints on beam losses in the machine. The main concerns are the hands-on maintenance and ground-water activation. Only with a very efficient beam collimation system can one reduce uncontrolled beam losses to an allowable level. The results on tolerable beam loss and on a proposed beam collimation system a...
متن کاملHalo Generation and Beam Cleaning by Resonance Trapping∗
One of the mechanisms of halo generation occurs when particles are trapped by a nonlinear resonance ν ≈ m/p as the tune ν is being modulated. This note is intended to renew some attention to this mechanism, and hopefully to trigger new study to understand it more quantitatively. This same mechanism used in reverse could serve to clean beam halos and to relax requirements on the collimators. Pre...
متن کاملSummary of Session 2: Beam Dynamics and Intensity Challenges
We summarize the Session 2 of the HHH-2004 workshop, which was devoted to beam dynamics and intensity challenges. The topics discussed included the extrapolation of collimation system, machine protection, beam dump, and rf systems to various LHC upgrade scenarios, spacecharge studies for the GSI complex, electron-cloud effects at RHIC and SNS, and a review of vacuum physics, which addressed, in...
