Collimation simulations for the FCC-ee

Tatiana Pieloni, Giovanni Iadarola, Milica Rakic, Bruce Roderik, Guillaume Clément Broggi, Félix Simon Carlier

The collimation system of the Future Circular Collider, operating with leptons (FCC-ee), must protect not only the experiments against backgrounds, but also the machine itself from beam losses. With a 17.8 MJ stored energy of the electron and positron beam ...

Studies of crystal collimation for heavy ion operation at the LHC

Rongrong Cai

At CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC), proton and heavy-ion beams are accelerated to multi-TeV energies to be collided for the needs of the scientific community around the world. The total stored beam energy of tens to hundreds ofMJ creates potential threa ...

Koehler integrator device and application thereof in a multi-focal confocal microscope

Suliana Manley, Kyle Michael Douglass, Dora Mahecic

A Koehler integrator device (10) comprises a collimating lens (11) being arranged for collimating a light field created by an incoherent or partially coherent light source, a pair of planar first and second micro-lens arrays (12, 13) being arranged for rel ...

Precise and accurate image-based measurements of optical material properties

Marjan Shahpaski

The appearance of objects is governed by how they reflect, transmit and absorb the light they receive. That, in turn, depends on the material's internal structure, surface structure, and viewing and illumination directions. Changes in those characteristics ...

Resonant Waveguide Gratings for Color-Selective Diffraction

Giorgio Quaranta

Resonant waveguide gratings (RWGs), also known as guided mode resonant (GMR) gratings or waveguide-mode resonant gratings, are dielectric structures where these resonant diffractive elements benefit from lateral leaky guided modes and can operate from UV t ...

Multi-slit triode ion optical system with ballistic beam focusing

Alexander Karpushov, Anton Smirnov

Multi-slit triode ion-optical systems with spherical electrodes are of interest for formation of intense focused neutral beams for plasma heating. At present, two versions of focusing multi-slit triode ion optical system are developed. The first ion optica ...

Monte Carlo Modeling of Crystal Channeling at High Energies

Philippe Jean Schoofs

Charged particles entering a crystal close to some preferred direction can be trapped in the electromagnetic potential well existing between consecutive planes or strings of atoms. This channeling effect can be used to extract beam particles if the crystal ...

A 65k pixel, 150k frames-per-second camera with global gating and micro-lenses suitable for fluorescence lifetime imaging

Edoardo Charbon, Claudio Bruschini, Samuel Burri, Francesco Regazzoni, François Eric Powolny

This paper presents our work on a 65k pixel single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) based imaging sensor realized in a 0.35 mu m standard CMOS process. At a resolution of 512 by 128 pixels the sensor is read out in 6.4ps to deliver over 150k monochrome frames ...

Monte Carlo modeling of crystal channeling at high energies

Alessio Ferrari, Philippe Jean Schoofs, Francesco Cerutti

Channeling in bent crystals is becoming a reliable and efficient technique for collimating beams. At CERN, the installation of crystals in LHC is under scrutiny by the UA9 collaboration with the goal of investigating if they are a viable option for the col ...
