BEAM INTERLOCKING STRATEGY BETWEEN THE LHC AND ITS INJECTOR

Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

For nominal beam parameters at 7 TeV/c, each of the two LHC proton beams has a stored energy of 360 MJ threatening to damage accelerator equipment in case of uncontrolled beam loss, two orders of magnitude above other accelerators such as SPS, HERA, RHIC and TEVATRON. Already during the transfer from the SPS pre-injector to the LHC, beam that is wrongly deflected into accelerator
