In the TESLA superconducting linear collider project, collisions occur at zero crossing angle. The option
to rapidly dump the spent beams after the collision has been favoured recently to avoid the inconveniencies
of large beam losses and beam line activation. For these reasons, the design of the beam and beamstrahlung
extraction lines must be interplayed with those of the final focus optics and synchrotron radiation masking.
We propose a system where the beam extraction is downward and where the beam and beamstrahlung power is dumped
at 240 m from the IP. The power deposition along the beam lines and beam transmission to the dump are found
to be acceptable. |
