Description

We take a first look at the performance of the HE-LHC as a heavy-ion collider, based on the beams foreseen to be available during the high-luminosity heavy-ion phase of the LHC that will start in 2021. Like the FCC, the HE-LHC benefits from the faster radiation damping of heavy ions but beam losses due to collimation and ultraperipheral collisions at the interactions points will require special attention.
