TI - Future Prospective for Bent Crystals in Accelerators J2 - Proc. of IPAC2021, Campinas, SP, Brazil, 24-28 May 2021 CY - Campinas, SP, Brazil T2 - International Particle Accelerator Conference T3 - 12 LA - english AB - Super magnet dipoles employed to steer high energy particle beams are massive instruments requiring cryogenic cooling and featuring large energy consumption. A bent crystal has the potential in a few millimeters to deflect 100-1000 GeV particle beams as much as an hundreds-tesla magnetic dipole. Indeed, within the lattice of a crystal, large electric fields up to several GeV/cm are present. Positive charged particles can be efficiently channeled between two adjacent lattice planes, thus following their curvature. These features and the possibility to selectively affect only the portion of the beam intercepting the crystal led to the proposal of exploiting bent crystals for several purposes, such as the collimation of ions at LHC. In this scheme, the particles on the beam halo instead of being scattered by tens-centimeters long collimators are directly separated from the beam using a 4 mm long silicon crystal. The production of a bent crystal suitable for installation in the LHC beamline requires strict control over lattice features and bending apparatus. The results obtained by the years long research of the INFN research team in Ferrara are presented in this work.
