A particle suppressor can be used in a particle receiver to reduce the particle loss rate. The receiver can include a rotating drum with an inliner. The particle suppressor can include a retaining surface. The retaining surface can be spaced away from and extend concentrically with the inline. A spacing gap between the inliner and the retaining surface can dampen the motion of bouncing particles. The spacing gap can be between 15 mm and 20 mm. In some embodiments, the particle suppressor can include a support ring with a plurality of suppressor segments disposed circumferentially around the support ring. The particle suppressor can include a plurality of suppressor segments coupled directly to the inliner. A heat shield can be coupled to the particle suppressor. A support bracket can suspend the particle suppressor within the receiver.
