“…The effect of shortening the crystal on the efficiency of multi-turn extraction is explained by Figure 1, where shown are both the predicted [37] dependence of the IHEP crystal extraction efficiency as a function of the crystal length, and some history of the measurements since 1997 [20][21][22][33][34][35][36][37]. Here, two very fresh and very interesting experimental points (squares) [38] have been added to the plot, obtained with a new bending technique of quasi-mosaic crystals.…”

Abstract. IHEP Protvino has pioneered the wide practical use of bent crystals as optical elements in high-energy beams for beam extraction and deflection on permanent basis since 1989. In the course of IHEP experiments, crystal channeling has been developed into efficient instrument for particle steering at accelerators, working in predictable, reliable manner with beams of very high intensity over years. Crystal systems extract 70 GeV protons from IHEP main ring with efficiency of 85% at intensity of 10 12 , basing on multi-pass mechanism of channeling proposed theoretically and realised experimentally at IHEP. Today, six locations on the IHEP 70-GeV main ring of the accelerator facility are equipped by crystal extraction systems, serving mostly for routine applications rather than for research and allowing a simultaneous run of several particle physics experiments, thus significantly enriching the IHEP physics program. The long successful history of large-scale crystal exploitation at IHEP should help to incorporate channeling crystals into accelerator systems worldwide in order to create unique systems for beam delivery. We report recent results from the research and exploitation of crystal extraction systems at IHEP.
