High energy beam impact tests on a LHC tertiary collimator at the CERN high-radiation to materials facility

The correct functioning of a collimation system is crucial to safely operate highly energetic particle accelerators, such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The requirements to handle high intensity beams can be demanding. In this respect, investigating the consequences of LHC particle beams hittin...
