Description
The talk will shortly review our knowledge of halo production by standard processes and in particular beam-gas scattering. Analytic estimates and simulation tools (PLACET+HTGEN) exist and have been used to predict the halo for the drive beam, LINAC and beam delivery systems of CLIC.
This allows to show that halo and losses from halo should be rather low in CLIC under design conditions and provides insight in which energy range and location in the system are more critical for halo production and losses.
