  The tuning aims to mitigate static imperfections of the Final Focus System (FFS) for emittance preservation at the Interaction Point (IP). A simulation campaign on the nominal CLIC FFS at 3 TeV have shown the need of rethink the design in order to ease the tuning of the machine. The goal is to optimize the lattice in order to make the FFS more tolerant to misalignments by reducing the strength of the sextupoles. The tuning efficiency is promoted as figure of merit to find the optimal layout of the FFS. A comparative study of the tuning performances have been performed for two L* options.

  In the framework of the CLIC rebaselining, the Beam Delivery System (BDS) have been re-optimized for its initial stage at 380 GeV. Two BDS designs with L*=4.3 meters and L*=6 meters have been investigated. The optimization of the lattices and the beam parameters at the interaction point (IP) have been performed by taking into account their energy upgrade to 3 TeV and the tuning feasibility of the BDS in presence of static imperfections.

  In 2016, CLIC implementation working groups have started their reflection on how to finalize the CLIC design work in the different areas of the project, aiming for a technical design and an overall implementation plan for CLIC being available for the next European Strategy Update around 2019. One of the working groups has focused its attention on the Main Linac hardware, which has brought together the different competences of the study with the aim of producing an advanced set of specifications for the design, installation and operation of the CLIC module. As the fundamental unit for the construction of the Main Beam linac, the CLIC module needs to move from the existing prototypes exploring its performance into an advanced and functional unit where the full life cycle of the module is considered. The progress of the working group activity is summarized in this paper, with considerations on the requirements for the design of the next-phase CLIC module.

  The first stage of the CLIC is proposed to be at 380 GeV. So the Ring To Main Linac (RTML), which transport the beams from the damping ring to main linac with minimal emittance growth, should be restudied due to the new beam properties. In this paper the two bunch compressors in the RTML are redesigned. Then a complete study of the static beam-based alignment techniques along RTML is presented. The beam-based correction includes one-to-one and dispersion-free steering, then a global correction using tuning bumps is applied to reduce the final emittance and mitigate the effects of coupling. The results showed that the emittance growth budgets can be met both in the horizontal and vertical planes.

TUPVA130 CLIC Tuning Performance Under Realistic Error Conditions 2403

  In this paper we present the latest results regarding the tuning study of the baseline design of the CLIC Final Focus System. In previous studies, 90% of the machines reach 90% of the nominal luminosity, when considering beam position monitor errors and transverse misalignments of magnets for a single beam case. In the present study, roll misalignments and strength errors are also included for both e- and e+ beamlines, making the study a more realistic one. First, second and third order knobs are implemented in the tuning procedure to target the most relevant beam size aberrations. In order to minimise the total number of luminosity measurements a simultaneous scan of various knobs has been developed to cope with the non-fully orthogonality of the knobs. The obtained results for single and double beam studies are presented.

THPAB050 Simulations of Beam-Beam Interactions With RF-Track for the AWAKE Primary Beam Lines 3823

  The AWAKE project at CERN will use a high-energy proton beam at 400 GeV/c to drive wake'elds in a plasma. The amplitude of these wake'elds will be probed by injecting into the plasma a low-energy electron beam (10-20 MeV/c), which will be accelerated to several GeV. Upstream of the plasma cell the two beams will either be transported coaxially or with an o'set of few millimetres for about 6 m. The interaction between the two beams in this beam line has been investigated in the past, with a dedicated simulation code tracking particles under the in'uence of direct space-charge e'ects. These simulations have recently been crosschecked with a new simulation code called RF-Track, developed at CERN to simulate low energy accelerators. RF-Track can track multiple-specie beams at arbitrary energies, taking into account the full electromagnetic particle-to-particle inter-action. For its characteristics RF-Track seems an ideal tool to study the AWAKE two-beam interaction. The results of these studies are presented in this paper and compared to the previous results. The implications for the facility performance are discussed.
