Abstract

A deflection efficiency of about 61% was observed for 400 GeV/c protons due to channeling, most strongly along the (110) axis of a bent silicon crystal. It is comparable with the deflection efficiency in planar channeling and considerably larger than in the case of the (111) axis. The measured probability of inelastic nuclear interactions of protons in channeling along the (110) axis is only about 10% of its amorphous level whereas in channeling along the (110) planes it is about 25%. High efficiency deflection and small beam losses make this axial orientation of a silicon crystal a useful tool for the beam steering of high energy charged particles.
