Beam Losses and Machine Protection

  • 1. DESY, Hamburg (Germany)

Description

Large hadron accelerators (existing and planned) can have enough stored beam energy to have dangerous effects on the accelerator and its environment in case of uncontrolled beam losses. This report will give examples of different kinds of beam losses together with the response of the beam loss monitors (BLMs), the machine protection system (MPS) and adjacent implications. Expected and unexpected events from HERA and their impacts on the MPS will be presented and analyzed
