Thermomechanical assessment of the effects of a jaw-beam angle during beam impact on Large Hadron Collider collimators

The correct functioning of a collimation system is crucial to safely and successfully operate high-energy particle accelerators, such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). However, the requirements to handle high-intensity beams can be demanding, and accident scenarios must be well studied in order to...
