MOPPC002 | Local Chromatic Correction Scheme and Crab-waist Collisions for an Ultra-low β* at the LHC | 118 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by the European Commission under the FP7 Research Infrastructures project Eu- CARD, grant agreement no. 227579. We discuss potential merits and the parameter range of interest for a possible crab-waist collision scheme at the LHC, and report preliminary optics studies of a local chromatic correction scheme with flat beams (βx*>>βy*), which could boost the LHC luminosity by about an order of magnitude and would also allow for crab-waist collisions. |

TUOBC03 | Experimental Measurements of e-Cloud Mitigation using Clearing Electrodes in the DAΦNE Collider | 1107 |
|

Recently the electron-positron collider DAΦNE has started delivering luminosity to the KLOE-2 experiment. For this run special metallic electrodes for e-cloud clearing were installed in all the dipole and wiggler magnets of the collider positron ring. Experimental measurements of the effectiveness of the electrodes in the mitigation of the e-cloud effects in the positron beam have been done showing an impressive effectiveness of these devices in the cure of the e-cloud effects in the positron beam. In particular the electrodes allow reducing the vertical beam size increase, the growth rate of transverse instabilities and the tune shifts induced by the electron cloud. Frequency shifts measurements of the vacuum chamber resonances switching on and off the electrodes have also been done showing their effect in the reduction of the electron cloud density. In this paper we summarize the results of all our observations and the experimental measurements of the e-cloud suppression with these electrodes. | ||

TUPPR088 | Baseline Design of the SuperB Factory Injection System | 2032 |
|
||
The injection complex of the SuperB, B-factory project of INFN consists of a polarized electron gun, a positron production system, electron and positron linac sections, a positron damping ring and the transfer lines connecting these systems and the collider main rings. To keep the ultra high luminosity nearly constant, continuous injection of 4 GeV electrons and 7 GeV positrons in both Low Energy Ring (LER) and High Energy Ring (HER) is necessary. In this paper we describe the baseline design and the beam dynamics studies performed to evaluate the system performance. | ||
