Decisive advantages of Fixed-target experiments
Decisive advantages of Fixed-target experiments
Fixed-target experiments offer specific advantages that arestill nowadays difficult to challenge by collider experiments
They exhibit 4 decisive features,accessing the high Feynman xF domain (xF ≡ pz/pz max)
achieving high luminosities with dense targets,
varying the atomic mass of the target almost at will,
polarising the target.

• J/Ψ→ μ+μ- - PYTHIA pp at √s = 115 GeV1 month5% acceptance
MSTW gluon uncertainty
PYTHIA simulation σ(y) / σ(y=0.4) statistics for one month5% acceptance considered
Statistical relative uncertaintyLarge statistics allow to access very backward region
Gluon uncertainty from MSTWPDF - only for the gluon content of the target- assuming
xg = M J/Ψ/√s e-yCM
J/ΨyCM ~ 0 → xg = 0.03yCM ~ -3.6 → xg = 1
Y: larger xg for same yCM
yCM ~ 0 → xg = 0.08yCM ~ -2.4 → xg = 1

• 70 GeV protons, 50 ms spills of 1014 protons every 9.6 s,several minutes irradiation
• equivalent to 2 nominal LHC bunches for 500 turns every 10 s
• 5 mm silicon crystal, channeling efficiency unchanged
• SPS North Area - NA48 (Biino et al, CERN-SL-96-30-EA):
• 450 GeV protons, 2.4 s spill of 5 x 1012 protons every 14.4 s, one year
irradiation, 2.4 x 1020 protons/cm2 in total,
• equivalent to several year of operation for a primary collimator in LHC

Conclusion
Both p and Pb LHC beams can be extracted without disturbingthe other experiments
Extracting a few per cent of the beam→ 5×108 protons per secThis allows for high luminosity pp, pA and PbA collisions at√
s = 115 GeV and√
sNN = 72 GeVExample: precision quarkonium studies taking advantage of
high luminosity (reach in y , PT , small BR channels)target versatility (nuclear effects, strongly limited at colliders)modern detection techniques (e.g. γ detection with high multiplicity)
This would likely prepare the ground for g(x ,Q2) extractionA wealth of possible measurements:DY, Open b/c, jet correlation, UPC... (not mentioning secondary beams)
Planned LHC long shutdown (< 2020 ?) could be used to installthe extraction system
Very good complementarity with electron-ion programs

The target versatility of a fixed-target experiment is undisputable
A wide rapidity coverage is needed for:a precise analysis of gluon nuclear PDF: y ,pT ↔ x2a handle on formation time effects
Strong need for cross checks from various measurements
The backward kinematics is very useful for large-xtarget studies
What is the amount of Intrinsic charm ? Is it color filtered ?Is there an EMC effect for gluon ? (reminder: EMC region 0.3 < x < 0.7)
One should be careful with factorization breaking effects:

Heavy-flavour observatory in pA
What for ?
The target versatility of a fixed-target experiment is undisputable
A wide rapidity coverage is needed for:a precise analysis of gluon nuclear PDF: y ,pT ↔ x2a handle on formation time effects
Strong need for cross checks from various measurements
The backward kinematics is very useful for large-xtarget studiesWhat is the amount of Intrinsic charm ? Is it color filtered ?Is there an EMC effect for gluon ? (reminder: EMC region 0.3 < x < 0.7)
One should be careful with factorization breaking effects:

Observation of J/ψ sequential suppression seems to be hindered bythe Cold Nuclear Matter effects: non trivial and
... not well understood
the difficulty to observe directly the excited stateswhich would melt before the ground states
χc never studied in AA collisionsψ(2S) not yet studied in AA collisions at RHIC
the possibilities for cc recombination
Open charm studies are difficult where recombination matters mosti.e. at low PT
Only indirect indications –from the y and PT dependence of RAA–that recombination may be at work
CNM effects may show a non-trivial y and PT dependence . . .

Using the LHC beams, for the first time,the 100-GeV frontier can be broken at a fixed target experiment,
without affecting the LHC performance
with an extracted beam line using a bent crystal
with the possibility of polarising the target
without target-species limitation
with an outstanding luminosity
with virtually no limit on particle-species studies (except top quark)
