21 MEF group meeting, 24 th November 2010A. L. Perrot ALICE Zero Degree Calorimeter Role: HI physics study ZDC detectors: 2 calorimeters, ZN and ZP on a movable table; active material: quartz fibers ZN->spectator neutrons; between the two beam pipes of the recombination chamber. ZP->spectator protons; external to the outgoing beam. Location: installed on both sides of IP2

22 MEF group meeting, 24 th November 2010A. L. Perrot Modifications of the LHC machine Point 1-TAN L sufficient shielding of the machine elements L> 10 33 cm -2 s -1 : LHCf and/or the ATLAS ZDC =>replaced by Cu bars to avoid the quench of D2 Radio Protection requirement: remote manipulation of the detectors/Cu bars and underground storage in the machine tunnel. Point 2- ALICE ZDC modifications => to maximize the physics potential & assure efficient and safe operation. - recombination chamber modified to allow ZN insertion, - acceptance increase for ZP=> BPMSX circular aperture, upstream collimators internal aperture - amount of material reduced in front of ZN and ZP (4mm thin window on big circular chamber ) Big circular chamber in front of ALICE ZDC

23 MEF group meeting, 24 th November 2010A. L. Perrot Point 5-TAN Idem Point 1 - TAN Point 5 - TOTEM - sector valves added close to the RP stations => decrease the distance on which the vacuum would have to be broken if RP is removed; - nominal collimation scheme: TCL collimator between the Q4 and Q5 to protect Q5. TCL open until L =3-5 10 33 cm -2 s -1 TCL will be closed as required by machine operation => reduce acceptance of RP @ 220m. - @ L about 10 33 cm -2 s -1, XRP1 removed and replaced by TCLP collimators to protect the RR and machine Dispersion Section Modifications of the LHC machine
