  As part of the post-LHC high-energy program, a study is ongoing to design a new 100 km long hadron collider, which is expected to operate at a centre-of-mass energy of 100 TeV and to accumulate up to 30 ab−1, with a peak instantaneous luminosity that could reach 30 1034cm−2s−1. In this context, the evaluation of the radiation load on the detector is a key step for the choice of materials and technologies. In this contribution, a first detector concept will be presented. At the same time, fluence distributions, relevant for detector occupancy, and accumulated damage on materials and electronics will be shown. The effectiveness of a possible shielding configuration, intended to minimise the background in the muon chambers and tracking stations, will be presented.

The LHC heavy-ion program aims to further increase the stored ion beam energy, putting high demands on the LHC collimation system. Accurate simulations of the ion collimation efficiency are crucial to validate the feasibility of new proposed configurations and beam parameters. In this paper we present a generalized framework of the SixTrack-FLUKA coupling to simulate the fragmentation of heavy-ions in the collimators and their motion in the LHC lattice. We compare heavy-ion loss maps simulated on the basis of this framework with the loss distributions measured during heavy-ion operation in 2011 and 2015.
