Two aspects:
1. Accidental damage.
2. Power in normal LHC operation.

Beam entering a few mm from the edge of a 30 cm long copper block
The length and depth of this melted region is comparable to the ANSYS
simulation for the LHC accident.

It took about 1.3 sec to melt thru the 30 cm block, but for this relatively large
beam, the front two radiation lengths remain intact.

LHC : A kicker failure can deposit 9 x 1011 protons (8 bunches) on any metallic
secondary collimator - causing it to melt within a substantial volume.

Phase II Energy Depostion Simulations
A. Before Jan. ‘06 had only simulated energy deposition in the primary collimators
and the first secondary collimator where about 80% of the collimated energy is
deposited.
B. Decided to construct a simple FLUKA model of IR7 to make particular checks
of the CERN sophisticated, comprehensive model. The “simple” model
includes:
1. 60 cm carbon primary collimators
2. 11 secondary collimators, jaws only
a) Phase 1, 120 cm rectangular carbon jaws
b) Phase 2, 95 cm cylindrical copper jaws
3. 4 tungsten absorbers, jaws only
4. 24 warm quadrupoles, 2 SC quadrupoles
5. 4 warm dipoles
6. All copper beam pipes

Next Steps for Energy Deposition
1. FLUKA simulations:
In the Phase II configuration with all 95 cm long copper cylinders, simulate
the energy absorbed by the down-beam superconducting dipole magnets –
compare with ray-tracing program TURTLE.
2. ANSYS accident simulations:
a) Use quasi-static (few hundred msec) model to estimate permanent
deformation.
b) Use transient thermal shock analysis to estimate fracture damage.
3. A beam test to simulate the LHC accident conditions in a copper, cylindrical
collimator is highly desirable.
