The Large Hadron Collider Lyndon Evans CERN – European Organization for Nuclear Research, Geneva, Switzerland
34th SLAC Summer Institute On Particle Physics (SSI 2006), July 17-28, 2006 The Large Hadron Collider Lyndon Evans CERN – European Organization for Nuclear Research, Geneva, Switzerland 1. INTRODUCTION The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is now in its final installation and commissioning phase. It is a two-ring superconducting proton-proton collider housed in the 27 km tunnel previously constructed for the Large Electron Positron collider (LEP). It is designed to provide proton-proton collisions with unprecedented luminosity (1034cm-2.s-1) and a centre-of-mass energy of 14 TeV for the study of rare events such as the production of the Higgs particle if it exists. In order to reach the required energy in the existing tunnel, the dipoles must operate at 1.9 K in superfluid helium. In addition to p-p operation, the LHC will be able to collide heavy nuclei (Pb-Pb) with a centre-of-mass energy of 1150 TeV (2.76 TeV/u and 7 TeV per charge). By modifying the existing obsolete antiproton ring (LEAR) into an ion accumulator (LEIR) in which electron cooling is applied, the luminosity can reach 1027cm-2.s-1. The LHC presents many innovative features and a number of challenges which push the art of safely manipulating intense proton beams to extreme limits. The beams are injected into the LHC from the existing Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) at an energy of 450 GeV. After the two rings are filled, the machine is ramped to its nominal energy of 7 TeV over about 28 minutes. In order to reach this energy, the dipole field must reach the unprecedented level for accelerator magnets of 8.3 T. -

Synchrotron Light Source
Synchrotron Light Source The evolution of light sources echoes the progress of civilization in technology, and carries with it mankind's hopes to make life's dreams come true. The synchrotron light source is one of the most influential light sources in scientific research in our times. Bright light generated by ultra-rapidly orbiting electrons leads human beings to explore the microscopic world. Located in Hsinchu Science Park, the NSRRC operates a high-performance synchrotron, providing X-rays of great brightness that is unattainable in conventional laboratories and that draws NSRRC users from academic and technological communities worldwide. Each year, scientists and students have been paying over ten thousand visits to the NSRRC to perform experiments day and night in various scientific fields, using cutting-edge technologies and apparatus. These endeavors aim to explore the vast universe, scrutinize the complicated structures of life, discover novel nanomaterials, create a sustainable environment of green energy, unveil living things in the distant past, and deliver better and richer material and spiritual lives to mankind. Synchrotron Light Source Light, also known as electromagnetic waves, has always been an important means for humans to observe and study the natural world. The electromagnetic spectrum includes not only visible light, which can be seen with a naked human eye, but also radiowaves, microwaves, infrared light, ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays, classified according to their wave lengths. Light of Trajectory of the electron beam varied kind, based on its varied energetic characteristics, plays varied roles in the daily lives of human beings.

MIT at the Large Hadron Collider—Illuminating the High-Energy Frontier
Mit at the large hadron collider—Illuminating the high-energy frontier 40 ) roland | klute mit physics annual 2010 gunther roland and Markus Klute ver the last few decades, teams of physicists and engineers O all over the globe have worked on the components for one of the most complex machines ever built: the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the CERN laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland. Collaborations of thousands of scientists have assembled the giant particle detectors used to examine collisions of protons and nuclei at energies never before achieved in a labo- ratory. After initial tests proved successful in late 2009, the LHC physics program was launched in March 2010. Now the race is on to fulfill the LHC’s paradoxical mission: to complete the Stan- dard Model of particle physics by detecting its last missing piece, the Higgs boson, and to discover the building blocks of a more complete theory of nature to finally replace the Standard Model. The MIT team working on the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the LHC stands at the forefront of this new era of particle and nuclear physics. The High Energy Frontier Our current understanding of the fundamental interactions of nature is encap- sulated in the Standard Model of particle physics. In this theory, the multitude of subatomic particles is explained in terms of just two kinds of basic building blocks: quarks, which form protons and neutrons, and leptons, including the electron and its heavier cousins. From the three basic interactions described by the Standard Model—the strong, electroweak and gravitational forces—arise much of our understanding of the world around us, from the formation of matter in the early universe, to the energy production in the Sun, and the stability of atoms and mit physics annual 2010 roland | klute ( 41 figure 1 A photograph of the interior, central molecules. -

This document summarises the physics potential of CLIC, obtained in detailed studies, many based on full simulation of the CLIC detector. CLIC covers one order of magnitude of centre-of-mass energies from 350 GeV to 3 TeV, giving access to large event samples for a variety of SM processes, many of them for the + first time in e e− collisions or for the first time at all. The high collision energy combined with the large + luminosity and clean environment of the e e− collisions enables the measurement of the properties of Stand- ard Model particles, such as the Higgs boson and the top quark, with unparalleled precision. CLIC might also discover indirect effects of very heavy new physics by probing the parameters of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory with an unprecedented level of precision. The direct and indirect reach of CLIC to physics beyond the Standard Model significantly exceeds that of the HL-LHC. This includes new particles detected in challenging non-standard signatures. -
The ATLAS Detector: a General Purpose Experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN
FR9806097 The ATLAS detector: a general purpose experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN J. Schwindling CEA, DSM/DAPNIA, CE Saclay, 91191 Gif sur Yvette, France 1 Introduction The ATLAS collaboration has designed a general purpose detector to be operated at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN [1]. The design of the detector took into account the requirements from the physics and the constraints from the collider, but also the cost and technological aspects. It is supported by a large amount of detailed simulations and test activities. The performances which are required to meet the physics goals are the following: - The search for Higgs bosons through their decays into two photons or four elec- trons requires a good electromagnetic calorimetry. - The search for Higgs bosons decaying into four muons requires a robust muon system. - Supersymmetric particles often decay into an invisible neutralino plus other parti- cles, leading to a missing energy signature which can be measured with an hermetic detector. - The measurement of the top quark mass requires a good measurement of jets. - b quark and r lepton identification requires the precise measurement of secondary vertices. The ATLAS detector is shown in figure 1. It covers a large fraction of the 4n angle, offers robust and redundant physics measurements and allows for triggering at low PT (about 10 GeV) thresholds. In order to achieve the design LHC luminosity of 1034 cm"2 s"1, the bunch spacing will be only 25 ns, leading to about 20 minimum bias events ("pile-up") and about 1000 charged tracks produced at each bunch crossing. -

Based on the last decade JAERI reactor design studies, the advanced commercial reactor concept (A- SSTR2) which meets both economical and environmental requirements has been proposed. The A-SSTR2 is a compact power reactor (Rp=6.2m, ap=1.5m, Ip=12MA) with a high fusion power (Pf =4GW) and a net thermal efficiency of 51%. The machine configuration is simplified by eliminating a center solenoid (CS) coil system. SiC/SiC composite for blanket structure material, helium gas cooling with pressure of 10MPa and outlet temperature of 900˚C, and TiH2 for bulk shield material are introduced. For the toroidal field (TF) coil, a high temperature (T C) superconducting wire made of bismuth with the maximum field of 23Tand the critical current density of 1000A/mm2 at a temperature of 20K is applied. -
