Description

Radiation to electronics failures were observed during 2021 in several locations in the SPS access system, whose electronics is critical for the machine operation. Mitigation measures were adopted through shielding when the relocation was not feasible. BatMon measurements and FLUKA simulations were conducted to assess the radiation environment to advance a mitigation solution.
