Allowing the exploration of unknown territories in basic research with proton and ion beams. As a consequence, new challenges arise for the materials that are placed close to or into the high intensity beams, mainly but not exclusively inside collimators. Full intensity and performance can only be reached if collimation works reliably (minimum downtime) with excellent efficiency. Damage must be avoided or, if it cannot fully be excluded, handled in a safe manner (selfrepairing devices).
Work package 8 addresses R&D on materials and collimators for high intensity beams.
