Abstract
The magnitude of heavy-ion beam loss at the relativistic heavy ion col lider (RHIC) and the large hadron collider (LHC) due to Coulomb induce d bound-electron-positron production and to Coulomb dissociation of th e nucleus is evaluated. With the nominal design parameters, the associ ated partial beam lifetime of RHIC (assuming four intersection regions ) is calculated as 7.7 h and that of LHC (one intersection region) as 5.3 h.
