New projects of crystal extraction at IHEP 70-GeV accelerator

Abstract

Description

Using channeling in a 5-mm crystal with bending angle of 0.65 mrad, a record high efficiency, over 60%, of particle extraction from accelerator was achieved. The extracted beam intensity was up to 5.2*10^11 protons per spill of 0.5 s duration. Also, the first proof-of-principle experiment on 'crystal collimation' was performed where crystal - serving as a scraper - has reduced the radiation level in the accelerator by a factor of two. The measurements agree with Monte Carlo predictions.
