The assessment of individual and collective intervention doses for the LHC beam cleaning insertions
ObjectivesRaise awareness about the necessity to begin optimization already now - the respective groups of concern will need time to define their needs in order to implement the optimizations before the startup of the machineIdentify critical interventions in order to suggest improvements and perform possible optimizationsPrepare the staged machine installation (collimator upgrade, vacuum, kickers, etc) during the first years of LHCPrepare contracts in time: external companies intervening in high radiation areas have to be certified (i.e. respective constraints will have to be included in market surveys)Collect input for documentation (INB reports) which has to be soon submitted to the French authorities for LHC approval. They will include estimates for individual and collective doses (one of the major concerns of the authorities!)Detailed Monte Carlo simulations are available for IR7 (arbitrary locations, different cooling times)Applying a new method (developed by RP) to calculate remanent dose rates based on the explicit production of radionuclides and the simulation of their decay particles. This overcomes the old limitations due to conversion coefficients only valid at contact to large surfaces.

Regions with low losses(e.g. due to residual gas)Regions of point losses(e.g. Collimators,)*picture by T. WijnandsLHCGoal: Critical individual and collective doses for the LHC (including experiments)
The assessment of individual and collective intervention doses for the LHC beam cleaning insertions
Beam OperationExpected Intensities/LossesFirst Year (2007): Start with low intensities, 1.3x1016 particles lost at IR7 (both beams)Second Year (2008): 25ns Operation, still limited intensities, 2.1x1016 particles lost at IR7 (both beams)Third Year (2009): Install MKBs, Upgrade to phase 2, Pushing up the intensity, Probably at Nominal around the end of the year -> 2.1x1016 4.1x1016 particles lost at IR7 (both beams)Fourth year (2010) xxx (20xx): Operate at around Nominal intensity -> 4.1x1016 particles lost at IR7 (both beams)xxx year (20xx): Push the machine to its maximum and operate at around Ultimate intensity, unlikely without further changes of the machine layout -> 7.3x1016 particles lost at IR7
Possible Operational PeriodsBreakdown of a year into shutdown and operational periods (e.g. 4 months / 8 months)Breakdown of operational periods into beam-on and beam-off periods (e.g. 25 day beam run / 3 days off)Breakdown of beam periods into physics and other runs (e.g. 1 day setting up, 4 days MD and 20 days physics* M. Lamont* R. Bailey

Beam Operation - ConsequencesAs compared to nominal operation one can assume the following scaling factors with respect to losses during the first years of operation:1st year: 1/32nd year: 1/2 4th - xxx year: 1Afterwards (???): 2 With respect to expected operational periods of the machine access due to interventions might be necessary at the following cooling times:Urgent repairs when LHC is operating: 1 - 8 hoursRepairs during beam-off period:8 hours 3 daysInterventions during shutdown:1 day 4 months

Which are the Constraints?
The assessment of individual and collective intervention doses for the LHC beam cleaning insertions
Radiation Protection Legislation: General PrinciplesJustificationany exposure of persons to ionizing radiation has to be justified
2) Limitationthe individual doses have to be kept below the legal limits
3) OptimizationDynamic Process: the individual doses and collective doses have to be kept As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA), i.e. iterations are necessary between the intervening groups and RP in order to reduce individual and collective doses to a reasonable minimum

Intervention Scenarios - IR7 only The following scenarios have already been identified and/or studied in more detail.
The assessment of individual and collective intervention doses for the LHC beam cleaning insertions
Intervention Scenarios - DetailsTo study various maintenance scenarios in order to get a complete view of individual and collective doses at IR7 we need the following information:
Kind of interventionLocation of the interventionTypical cooling period before interventionNumber of persons involvedSteps of the intervention Time estimate for each step (including location)Annual frequency of the interventionAre external contractors involved
At the moment the uncertainty lies in the estimates for the intervention(s), not in the calculation of the remanent dose rates!

Collimator, Exchange Prel. ConclusionsValues refer the most radioactive collimator (1st secondary) and to nominal intensity not to be reached during phase 1. They can be scaled by a factor of two for the first years of operationHowever, collimator supports and additional material not included in the simulation will however increase individual and collective dosesIn addition, after installation of phase 2 even higher doses have to be anticipated due to the hybrid collimators (e.g., copper jaws) The results and scenarios have to be further discussed and refined in order to become as realistic as possibleWithout improvements long down times will have to be accepted (at least for those collimators showing the highest remanent dose rates)Chain clamps and permanent bakeout equipment will certainly improve the situation (the latter will have to be radiation hard)
