Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Two attempts have been made recently at Fermilab to use channeling in bent crystals to provide beam attenuation and deflection of 800 GeV protons. One attempt was quite successful, attenuating a high intensity beam by a factor of 2000 to provide a useful beam at an emulsion experiment. This represents the highest energy where channeling has been observed. The other attempt failed but led to useful insights on how to improve the technique. The possibility of bent crystals as phase space monitors is discussed.
