At heavy ion colliders, two major sources of beam loss are expected to be$e^+e^-$ production, where the $e^-$ is bound to one of the nuclei, andphotonuclear excitation and decay via neutron emission. Both processes alterthe ions charged to mass ratio by well defined amounts, creating beams ofparticles with altered magnetic rigidity. These beams will deposit their energyin a localized region of the accelerator, causing localized heating, The sizeof the target region depends on the collider optics. For medium and heavy ions,at design luminosity at the Large Hadron Collider, local heating may be morethan an order of magnitude higher than expected. This could cause magnetquenches if the local cooling is inadequate. The altered-rigidity beams willalso produce localized radiation damage. The beams could also be extracted andused for fixed target experiments.
