AbstractThe lepton Future Circular Collider (FCC-ee) at CERN provides electron-positron collisions at four interaction points (IPs) along a 91 km ring, with beam energies spanning from 45.6 GeV (Z pole) to 182.5 GeV (ttbar threshold). The radiation showers produced by these collisions can reach sensitive components of the surrounding machine elements, possibly affecting their performance and lifetime. This contribution examines the case of radiative Bhabha scattering, which generates off-momentum beam particles that can be lost downstream. Some losses occur already at the superconducting final focusing quadrupoles (FFQs), where they can cause quenches and degradation of the coil materials. In this work, the Monte Carlo code FLUKA is used to study the impact of radiative Bhabha in the experimental insertion regions of FCC-ee. The radiation load in the FFQs and the radiation levels in the nearby tunnel and machine elements are simulated for the Z-pole and ttbar operational modes. For the FFQs, a tungsten shielding layer with optimized thickness is proposed to mitigate the radiation load in the magnet coils.
