AFTER A Fixed Target Experiment at LHC. Use LHC beams on fixed target LHC 7 TeV proton beam  s ~ 115 GeV : p-p, p-d, p-A LHC 2.76 TeV Pb beam   s NN ~ 72 GeV : Pb -p, Pb -A. Benefit from typical advantages of a fixed target experiment - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

TRANSCRIPT

AFTER A Fixed Target Experiment at LHC

Beam extraction from the LHC using strong field in bent crystals

• Use LHC beams on fixed target• LHC 7 TeV proton beam s ~ 115 GeV: p-p, p-d, p-A• LHC 2.76 TeV Pb beam sNN ~ 72 GeV: Pb-p, Pb-A

Benefit from typical advantages of a fixed target experimenthigh luminosity, high boost (ycms= 4.8 @115 GeV), target versatility
