Simulation of CRYSTAL, the Bent Crystal Based Collimation Experiment in the SPS

Crystal collimation is a possible variant of the two-stage collimation systems used in modern accelerators, by which the collimation efficiency may be strongly enhanced. An experiment is proposed in the CERN-SPS to check the improved performance on crystal collimation. Here we present the experiment...

Sumario:Crystal collimation is a possible variant of the two-stage collimation systems used in modern accelerators, by which the collimation efficiency may be strongly enhanced. An experiment is proposed in the CERN-SPS to check the improved performance on crystal collimation. Here we present the experiment layout and we perform simulations showing in quantitative manner the expected behavior of crystal collimation in the SPS.
