First investigation on a two-stage CERN PSB collimation system

Abstract:

This thesis investigates the feasibility of a two-stage collimator for the PSB (Proton Synchrotron Booster) at CERN. Simulations of several shapes, sizes and materials were run and the indications from this study are that due to heating concerns either diamond is required for the first stage or a fast kicker would need to be installed to prevent damage in the event of beam loss. Aluminium is also possible with some compromise on performance. The final design would be subject to further simula...
