ICFA Mini-Workshop on Tracking for Collimation in Particle Accelerators: CERN, Geneva, Switzerland 30 Oct 2015

The ICFA workshop on “Tracking for Collimation in Particle Accelerators” was held on 30 October 2015 as a satellite meeting to the 5th Joint High-Luminosity LHC/LARP Collaboration meeting. This event gathered together various experts participating to the development and exploitation of codes for simulating the performance of collimation systems in super-colliders. This was the first topical workshop or- ganised on this subject, and was motivated by the significant effort developed in recent years on this topics. In particular, it provided a forum for the discussion between various participants to the European Programmes with FP7 Capacity who collaborated on collimation activities for the upgrade of the LHC collimation system. We in- vited also colleagues from laboratories in USA and extended the discussions to other operating or past particles accelerators. The scopew was extended to include the preparation of written proceedings for each contributions, to document the status of various simulation codes.
