Stability modeling of the LHC Nb-Ti Rutherford cables subjected to beam losses

Luca Bottura, Enrico Felcini

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is being prepared for its full energy exploitation during Run III, i.e. an increase of the beam energy beyond the present 6.5 TeV, targeting the maximum discovery potential attainable. This requires an increase of th ...
