Materials Workshop, CERN, Sept 3-5, 2007Tevatron Collimators and Absorbers - N.V. Mokhov 3 INTRODUCTION At hadron colliders, as at any other accelerator, the creation of beam halo is unavoidable. This happens because of beam-gas interactions, intra-beam scattering, proton-proton (antiproton) collisions in the interaction regions (IP), and particle diffusion due to RF noise, ground motion and resonances excited by the accelerator magnet nonlinearities and power supplies ripple. As a result of halo interactions with limiting apertures, hadronic and electromagnetic showers are induced in accelerator and detector components causing numerous deleterious effects ranging from minor to severe. An accidental beam loss induced by an unsynchronized abort launched at abort system malfunction, can cause catastrophic damage to the collider equipment. Only with a very efficient beam collimation system can one reduce uncontrolled beam losses in the machine to an allowable level. Design of such a system for high-energy high-intensity beams is very challenging. Beam absorbers in straight sections or at the end of an extraction line is another subject of serious concern: -> Tevatron.

Maintain operational reliability in stores: quench stability and dynamic heat loads on cryogenics. Prevent quenching SC magnets and damage of machine and detector components at unsynchronized beam aborts. Minimize radiation damage to components, maximize their lifetime. Minimize impact of radiation on personnel and environment: prompt and residual radiation (hands-on maintenance).

Mokhov 7 TEVATRON COLLIMATION SYSTEM EVOLUTION Design report, commissioning, initial operation: a few single 0.9 to 1.8- m long SS collimators in front of SC magnets (Edwards, Pruss, Van Ginneken, ). A set of two-unit collimators at optimal locations based on STRUCT/MARS modeling allowed 5-fold increase of 800-GeV proton beam intensity at fast resonant extraction (Drozhdin, Harrison, Mokhov, 1985). First two-stage system, two 2.5-mm thick L-shape tungsten targets with 0.3-mm offset relative to A0 scrapers: 5-fold reduction of beam loss rates upstream D0 and CDF detectors (Drozhdin, Mokhov et al., 1995). Genuine two-stage system designed for Run-II with primary and secondary collimators at appropriate locations optimized in STRUCT/MARS runs (Church, Drozhdin, Mokhov, 1999) -> clean TeV Current system with a tertiary collimator (Drozhdin, Mokhov,Still). Crystal collimation (Carrigan, Drozhdin, Mokhov, Still).

Materials Workshop, CERN, Sept 3-5, 2007Tevatron Collimators and Absorbers - N.V. Mokhov 13 CURRENT TEVATRON COLLIMATION SYSTEM Primary: L-shaped 2.5-mm thick tungsten blades at 5 to 6  from the beam axis in a high-  (betatron cleaning) and non-zero dispersion (momentum cleaning) regions; three targets (H, V and off-momentum). Secondary: 1.5-m long stainless steel adjustable H&V collimators (L-shape jaws) located at the appropriate phase advances (30 & 150 deg) 1  farther from the beam axis, alligned parallel to the envelope of the circulating beam. Tertiary: 1-m long stainless steel adjustable units upstream of the low-beta region – to catch remedies from secondary collimators and beam-gas products, and to protect inner triplet and detector at abort kicker prefires (mandatory!) <- since Longitudinal beam loss, beam-gas scattering and elastic part of collision loss are the main mechanisms of the slow beam halo growth. The system intercepts 99.9% of this halo, with 3×10 7 p/s scraping rate.

Materials Workshop, CERN, Sept 3-5, 2007Tevatron Collimators and Absorbers - N.V. Mokhov 22 SUMMARY Beam collimation is mandatory at any superconducting collider to protect components against excessive irradiation, minimize backgrounds in the experiments, maintain operational reliability over the life of the machine, and reduce the impact of radiation on environment, both at normal operation and accidental situations. Highly-efficient two-stage collimation system at Tevatron reliably serves these purposes. Recent developments include marble shells and crystal collimation. The later, gives a possibility to test channeling techniques in a collider as an interesting option for LHC. External and internal Tevatron collider graphite-based beam absorbers also exhibit high performance.
