Download or read book Induced Activity Calculations in View of the Large Electron Positron Collider Decommissioning written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The future installation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the tunnel presently housing the Large Electron Positron collider (LEP) requires the dismantling of the latter after more than 10 years of operation. The decommissioning of an accelerator facility leads to the production of large amounts of waste, which in the case of an electron accelerator mostly is of very low level of radioactivity. LEP is classified as Nuclear Basic Installation (Installation Nucleaire de Base, INB) in France, where no unconditional clearance levels are fixed for the specific activity in materials to be released into the public domain. In the case of LEP, the possible sources of induced activity taken here into account are: localized beam losses, distributed beam losses and synchrotron radiation. Reference values of induced specific activity at saturation, normalized to lost beam power, were determined by comparing Monte-Carlo calculations carried out with the FLUKA code and experimental results. These figures are directly employed to estimate the expected amount of low level radioactivity around localized beam loss points in LEP. Regarding the synchrotron radiation, calculations of the total production of radionuclides from photon, thermal neutron and fast neutron activation in the aluminum vacuum chamber, the lead shielding and the magnet pole-faces of a dipole, showed that at beam energies less than 105 GeV, none of the components will be considered as radioactive for decay periods of longer then ten days.
Download or read book Precision Electroweak Physics at Electron Positron Colliders written by Stefan Roth and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This up-to-date volume reviews the recent contributions of electron-positron colliders to the precision test of the electroweak Standard Model. In particular, it contains a short summary of the measurements at the Z resonance and gives an overview of the electroweak processes above the Z. Subsequently, the measurement of the W mass at LEP is discussed in detail. The implications for the precision test of the Standard Model are presented, giving the status of the global electroweak fit before the startup of Large Hadron Collider. The final chapters give an outlook on the electroweak physics at a future linear collider. The book also features many illustrations and tables. Readers obtain a coherent overview of the results of 20 years of electroweak physics conducted at electron-positron colliders.
