Description
Magnet shielding design in high-energy particle colliders is a multidisciplinary challenge, requiring consideration of diverse constraints to ensure both performance and longevity of components. An integrated design shall address key factors such as power load management in relation to quench and cryogenic limits, dose tolerance for organic materials, displacement per atom (DPA) thresholds for conductor materials, and the impact of shielding thickness on magnet aperture requirements. Using the Muon Collider as a primary example, along with insights applicable to the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), design considerations for balancing these requirements effectively are outlined. Shielding material choices are further evaluated considering several aspects such as their efficiency, structural and engineering implications, cost, and thermal management requirements.
