Since the 1990s, hydrostatic levelling sensors (HLS) and wire position sensors (WPS) are used for monitoring applications in the accelerator alignment. The sensors are at different levels of development, ranging from prototype to off-the-shelf sensors, and use different technologies to achieve µm resolution.
Both, the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) project as well as the International Linear...

Prompt radiation created during the beam cleaning process of the LHC will lead to highly activated beam line components in the cleaning insertions. The ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonable Achievable) is restricting the intervention time in these areas to an absolute minimum and conventional alignment methods will clearly exceed the limits. Based on the inspection train TIM (Train Inspection...
