HiRadMat - Status Adrian Fabich HiRadMat Scientific Board CERN, 14th March 2014
Overview • Report from HiRadMat experiments in 2012 • Shut-down work • Summary of 2014 proposals A. Fabich
2012 experiments • 9 experiments completed • On average 4 weeks between 2 experiment • Partially grouped A. Fabich
2012 - Protons to HiRadMat • Total: 1.4*1016 protons • About 48 hours of SPS cycling for HiRadMat • Preparation, waiting and extractions • Similar time span in 2011 for commissioning A. Fabich
Experiments in 2012 • RIB target R&D • LHC transfer collimator (2x) • BLM validation • RP benchmarking • Crystal collimation PhDs completed: Juan Blanco, Nov. 2013 Nikos Charitonidis, March 2014 Beam tunneling (HRMT12) TE/MPE R. Schmidt et al. Powder target (HRMT10) C. Densham et al. A. Fabich
TPSG4 - 2012 A. Fabich
Shut-down work • Installation of additional cabling • Mainly for vacuum and HQ signal • Removal of experiments from • Remainders in TNC: • LPROT (HRMT12): follow-up required • TISD (HRMT01): removal delayed by availability of class-A lab • TPSG4 (HRMT06) on target location: removal in April 2014 • Removal of WNAF collimator blocks • Minimum advancement • lengthy preparations for and discussions with authorities A. Fabich
Proposals • 12 applications • Named 14xx (year 2014 + running number) • Running number in the order of reception • 9 invited for presentation/discussion • 3 proposals to be discussed “offline” “placing them on the radar screen” • TPGS4 (1402): repetition with slightly higher intensity • Supra Magnet (1406): later availability • Microphone (1411): purely parasitic A. Fabich
Beam parameter space A. Fabich
Time frame • One experiment interested in ion operation • Half the user groups are interested in TA (Transnational Access) A. Fabich
Aim of Today Review the proposals • Primarily based on the scientific value But also • in view of schedule • Technical feasibility • Note: 3e13 p/pulse is the limit until spring 2015 • at a later stage might reach 5e13 p/pulse Follow-up: Written report on the view by the Board A. Fabich
