Sumario:The WP8 of EuCARD aims at the design of more advanced materials and collimators, with the aim to allow for higher beam power in state of the art accelerator facilities like LHC and FAIR. As a first step, feasible collimators to advance the performance reach need to be specified. Deliverable 8.1.2 concerned the specification of an advanced collimator for the Large Hadron Collider LHC. It had been completed in month 17 of the project (Aug 2010) and is now reported officially here. A first prototype has been constructed by time of writing this report and is being tested with beam.
