Heavy-flavour studies with a high-luminosity fixed-target experiment at the LHC
B. Trzeciak, S. J. Brodsky, G. Cavoto +31
Extraction of the multi-TeV proton and lead LHC beams with a bent crystal or by using an internal gas target allows one to perform the most energetic fixed-target experiment ever.…
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 for heavy-ion, hadron, spin and astroparticle physics: AFTER@LHC
D. Kikoła, S. J. Brodsky, G. Cavoto +30
Thanks to its multi-TeV LHC proton and lead beams, the LHC complex allows one to perform the most energetic fixed-target experiments ever and to study with high precision pp, pd an…
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…
