description | In 2024, The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN will
be upgraded to increase its luminosity by a factor of 10 (HL-LHC). The
ATLAS inner detector (ITk) will be upgraded at the same time. It has
suffered the most radiation damage, as it is the section closest to the
beamline, and the particle collisions. Due to the risk of excessive radiation
doses, human intervention to decommission the inner detector will
be restricted. Robotic systems are being developed to carry out the decommissioning
and limit radiation exposure to personnel. In this paper,
we present a study of the radiation tolerance of a robotic finger assessed
in the Birmingham Cyclotron facility. The finger was part of the Shadow
Grasper from Shadow Robot Company, which uses a set of Maxon DC
motors. |
