Conclusion Molybdenum-diamond composite samples for the LHC collimators were irradiated by 32 MeV protons up to 1017 and 1018 p/cm2 fluence in the cyclotron of NRC Kurchatov Institute. Series of irradiations at each fluence were carried out for mechanical and physical tests. The series of irradiations of LHC collimator materials samples at high proton doses irradiation was carried out using the water-cooled target device with the 1800 remote target rotation and quickly replaced holders for different samples. 31.01. - 01.02. 2017, CERN, Geneva

Conclusion On the basis of the proposed model of the layered structure for the irradiated materials, a number of calculations have been performed to determine damage profiles. Calculations show that the damage levels in diamond inclusions approximately an order of magnitude lower than that of copper and molybdenum-copper alloy. The average damage for both irradiated materials correspond to 10-4 dpa for diamond inclusions and 10-3 dpa for copper and copper-molybdenum alloy under irradiation of 30 MeV protons to doses 1017 p/cm2. At the same time, the calculations carried out with the average density approach correspond to values about 3*10-4 dpa. The ranges of protons for the materials with the layered structure and with the average density coincide within the margin of error for protons with energies greater than 10 MeV. Additional simulation was performed to estimate dpa levels and ranges of carbon ions in MoCuCD material for the swelling experiments. A simulation of the effect of water layer on protons in the water-cooled target unit was studied. Average energy of the protons hitting the sample for 3 mm of water layer is 25.7 ± 0.24 MeV. 33 31.01. - 01.02. 2017, CERN, Geneva
