The radiation hardness of certain optical fibres for the LHC upgrades at -25°C
A luminosity upgrade is planned in the future for the Large Hadron Collider at CERN (called SLHC). Two optical fibres have been tested in a bespoke cold container achieving a constant temperature of ≃ -25°C during the entire exposure. The motivations and results of these tests are presented and two...
