Abstract | We derive a model for the time evolution of beam losses due to macro particles falling into the LHC proton beam. The macro-particle initial longitudinal and transverse location, as well as its size are stochastic variables. By Monte-Carlo methods we determine the likelihood that beam-losses due to macro-particle/proton- beam interactions cause beam-dump triggers and/or quenches in beam-loss monitors and superconducting magnets, respectively. |
