This considerably increased the particle deflections. Some particles were also deflected due to channeling in one of the subsequent strips. As a result, the incident beam was strongly spread because of opposite directions of the deflections. A modified multi-strip deflector produced by periodic grooves on the surface of a thick silicon plate was used for these measurements. This technique provides perfect mutual alignment between crystal strips. Such multi-strip deflector may be effective for collider beam halo collimation and a study is planned at the CERN SPS circulating beam.", optnote="WOS:000343390400016", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=1974), last updated on Thu, 30 Apr 2015 17:00:20 +0000", issn="0168-583x", doi="10.1016/j.nimb.2014.08.013", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nimb.2014.08.013", language="English" }
