The Radiation Working Group (RADWG) at CERN, chaired by T. Wijnands, aims to support LHC equipment teams in improving radiation tolerance in their designs and systems. By coordinating radiation testing within CERN and collaborating with external facilities, RADWG serves as a comprehensive discussion platform for various departments. The group reports to the ICC and R2E task force, which has tasked them with investigating radiation tolerance specifically in LHC underground areas and assisting equipment groups in enhancing their systems against radiation effects.
