Abstract :
To protect the superconducting magnets in the collider lattice, and to minimize the background at the high energy physics detectors, a very efficient scraper system is essential. Such a system should be capable of intercepting a high rate of halo particles and absorbing most of their energy with no effect to the downstream equipments. Results of preliminary studies of possible scraper system are presented in this report.<>
