Sumario: | Among several working groups formed in the framework of Physics Beyond Colliders study, launched at CERN in September 2016, there is one investigating some specific fixed-target experiment proposals. Of particular interest is the study of a high-density unpolarized or polarized gas target to be installed upstream the LHCb detector using storage cells to enhance the target density. This work studies the impact of the interactions of 7 TeV proton beams with such gas targets on the LHC machine in terms of particle losses. The overall compatibility with the planned high-intensity program of the LHC is also discussed. |
