Sumario: | The LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) Project aims at up- grading the systems in the LHC injection chain, to reli- ably deliver the beams required by the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). Given the challenging beam intensities and emittances, a review of the existing beam-intercepting devices is on-going, in order to assess heat loads and con- sequent thermo-mechanical stresses. Moreover, the expo- sure of downstream elements to induced shower radiation is assessed. The study is intended to spot possible issues and contribute to the definition of viable design and layout solutions. |
