Data-driven cross-talk modeling of beam losses in LHC collimators

The Large Hadron Collider at CERN is equipped with a collimation system to intercept potentially dangerous beam halo particles before they damage its sensitive equipment. The collimator settings are determined following a beam-based alignment procedure, in which the collimator jaws are moved towards...
