The High-Luminosity target neutral beam absorber (TAXN) is the radiation absorber of the neutral particle debris generated at the beam collisions carried out in the ATLAS and CMS detectors at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The new absorber will protect the superconducting magnets from this radiation to prevent their quenching at a design luminosity of 7.5×1034 cm-2 s-1. This article describes the mechanical design of the TAXN assembly and the recombination chamber together with the thermal computations performed for the water-cooling and bakeout system prepared for the engineering design review held in January, 2021. It takes into account the internal integration of the zero degree calorimeter and beam rate of neutrals luminosity detector as well as their physics case overview. In addition, it provides the beam aperture breakdown and the heat deposition expected in the absorber.

Abstract
The High-Luminosity target neutral beam absorber (TAXN) is the radiation absorber of the neutral particle debris generated at the beam collisions carried out in the ATLAS and CMS detectors at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The new absorber will protect the superconducting magnets from this radiation to prevent their quenching at a design luminosity of 7.5×1034 cm-2 s-1. This article describes the mechanical design of the TAXN assembly and the recombination chamber together with the thermal computations performed for the water-cooling and bakeout system prepared for the engineering design review held in January, 2021. It takes into account the internal integration of the zero degree calorimeter and beam rate of neutrals luminosity detector as well as their physics case overview. In addition, it provides the beam aperture breakdown and the heat deposition expected in the absorber.
