High luminosity fixed-target experiment at the LHC
C. Hadjidakis, S. J. Brodsky, G. Cavoto +30
By extracting the beam with a bent crystal or by using an internal gas target, the multi-TeV proton and lead LHC beams allow one to perform the most energetic fixed-target experime…
Ultra-peripheral-collision studies in the fixed-target mode with the proton and lead LHC beams
N. Yamanaka, C. Hadjidakis, D. Kikola +30
We address the physics case related to the studies of ultra-peripheral pH, pPb, PbH, and PbPb collisions in the fixed-target mode at the LHC. In particular, we discuss how one can…
Probing the high-x content of the nuclei in the fixed-target mode at the LHC
A. Kusina, C. Hadjidakis, D. Kikola +30
Using the LHCb and ALICE detectors in the fixed-target mode at the LHC offers unprecedented possibilities to study the quark, gluon and heavy-quark content of the proton and nuclei…
A Fixed-Target Programme at the LHC: Physics Case and Projected Performances for Heavy-Ion, Hadron, Spin and Astroparticle Studies
C. Hadjidakis, D. Kikoła, J. P. Lansberg +29
We review the context, the motivations and the expected performances of a comprehensive and ambitious fixed-target program using the multi-TeV proton and ion LHC beams. We also pro…
Physics perspectives with AFTER@LHC (A Fixed Target ExpeRiment at LHC)
L. Massacrier, M. Anselmino, R. Arnaldi +38
AFTER@LHC is an ambitious fixed-target project in order to address open questions in the domain of proton and neutron spins, Quark Gluon Plasma and high- physics, at the highest…
Feasibility studies for quarkonium production at a fixed-target experiment using the LHC proton and lead beams (AFTER@LHC)
L. Massacrier, B. Trzeciak, F. Fleuret +4
Used in the fixed-target mode, the multi-TeV LHC proton and lead beams allow for studies of heavy-flavour hadroproduction with unprecedented precision at backward rapidities - far…
