  1. CRYSTAL-BASED COLLIMATION SYSTEM AS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY TO SOLVE THE COLLIMATION PROBLEM FOR FUTURE HIGH ENERGY ACCELERATORS ALEXEI SYTOV Research Institute for Nuclear Problems, Belarusian State University

  2. The LHC luminosityupgrade • The beam luminosity will increase with a factor 10!

  3. Absorber Absorber Collimation system for removing halo particles • Halo particles can damage the LHC equipment because of their large amplitude of betatronoscilla-tions. So we should remove them using collimation system: old collimationsystem(after the LHC luminosity upgrade becomes insufficient) new collimation system

  4. The remarkable feature of crystals in high energy physics is very strongelectricfields applied to particle beam with accuracy of Angstrom. How can we deflect high energy particles using bent crystal?

  5. Different effects in crystal θL0 Volume reflection Channeling

  6. Advantages and disadvantages of different effects Channeling in Bent crystals─ large deflection, but small acceptance VR─ large acceptance, but small deflection

  7. Advantages and disadvantages of different effects Channeling in Bent crystals─ large deflection, but small acceptance VR─ large acceptance, but small deflection MVR─ large acceptance, increased deflection MVR indeed increases reflection angle 5 timesin comparison with VR

  11. A technique to improve crystal channelingefficiency of charged particles till 99,9%* • A narrow plane cut near the crystal surface considerably increases the probability of capture into the stable channeling motion of positively charged particles.

  12. Conclusion 1. MVR is very good for collimation because of high collimation efficiency. We can increase the collimation efficiency by application of channeling regime if we solve some additional problems.

  13. Problems of the channeling effect for the collimation

  23.

  27. What is crystal application for the ILC?

  28. What is crystal application for the ILC? • speeding up of the electromagnetic showers generation. • e± crystal collimation • decrease of size of electromagnetic calorimeters • polarization generation/measurement • positron source for ILC

  29. Summary • Both the MVR and channeling phenomena can be successfully used for the crystal collimation at the LHC. • The channeling can provide better efficiency than the MVRbut the MVR is easier to use with high efficiency. • There are many additional crystal applications for the ILC.
