Particle-Matter Interactions
Giuseppe Lerner
This lecture reviews the principles of particle-matter interactions, providing the essential physics background required to understand beam loss mechanisms in high-energy accelerat…
Beam Loss Consequences
Giuseppe Lerner
The operation of high-energy and high-intensity particle accelerators inevitably leads to the loss of a fraction of beam particles, either through controlled processes or accidenta…
X-ray reflection: a FLUKA model and its application in the design of synchrotron light beamlines and CERN's Future Circular Collider
Giuseppe Mazzola, Sunil Chitra, Arnaud Devienne +12
Relying on atomic scattering factors from evaluated databases, a new model for the reflectivity of x rays on solid surfaces has been developed for FLUKA v4-6.0. This model accounts…
Design and modeling of a liquid-lead dump concept for beamstrahlung radiation absorption in the CERN Future Circular ee Collider
Silvio Candido, Rui Franqueira Ximenes, Anton Lechner +13
The electron-positron Future Circular Collider (FCC-ee) being developed at CERN will generate intense beamstrahlung radiation, thus requiring photon absorbers downstream of the int…
MuCol Milestone Report No. 7: Consolidated Parameters
Rebecca Taylor, Antoine Chancé, Dario Augusto Giove +459
This document is comprised of a collection of consolidated parameters for the key parts of the muon collider. These consolidated parameters follow on from the October 2024 Prelimin…
The Muon Collider
Carlotta Accettura, Simon Adrian, Rohit Agarwal +450
Muons offer a unique opportunity to build a compact high-energy electroweak collider at the 10 TeV scale. A Muon Collider enables direct access to the underlying simplicity of the…
