Identification of crucial radiation protection issues in the accelerator and the experiments. Identification of critical areas (in terms of ambient dose equivalent rate) for operation and maintenance of the accelerators and experiments.
Assessment of radiological impact on personnel and environment for the entire accelerator chain as a function of beam intensity increase and for different design options for the integration of focusing and experiment assemblies.
Investigation of operative procedures for interventions in high intensity accelerator/ high luminosity regions for maintenance and repair with a view to minimize the radiological impact.
Investigation of activation of different structural and detector materials in order to estimate future radioactive waste and the cost of its future characterization and elimination.
