Within the framework of the LAGUNA-LBNO project, CERN has started design studies in view of producing neutrinos for future long base line neutrino experiments. These design studies foresee a staged approach in the increase of the primary proton beam power, used for the neutrino production. The first step consists of exploring the feasibility of a CERN SPS beam power upgrade from the existing 500 kW, presently available to CNGS, to 750 kW. This beam should then be transferred to a new to be built neutrino beam line that is dimensioned for a beam power of 2 MW. The 2 MW proton beam is to be provided at a subsequent stage by a 30 - 50 GeV High-Power Proton Synchrotron (HP-PS), which is a major part of the design studies. This paper will provide an overview of the project and then focus on the preliminary ideas for the HP-PS design study.

The future beam brilliance and intensities required by the HL-LHC (High-Luminosity LHC) project and for possible new neutrino production beams triggered a deep revision of the LHC injector performances. The analysis, progressing in the framework of the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) projects, outlined major limitations mainly related to collective effects - space charge in PSB and PS, electron cloud driven and TMCI instabilities in the SPS, longitudinal coupled bunch instabilities in the PS for example - but also to the existing hardware capability to cope with beam instabilities and losses. A summary of the observations and simulation studies carried out so far, as well as the future ones, will be presented. The solution proposed to overcome the different limitations and the plans for their implementation will be also briefly reviewed.

The single bunch transverse mode coupling instability (TMCI) at injection is presently one of the main intensity limitation for LHC beams in the SPS. A new optics for the SPS with lower transition energy yields an almost 3-fold increase of the slip factor at injection energy and thus a significantly higher TMCI threshold, as demonstrated both in simulations and in experimental studies. It is observed furthermore that the low gamma transition optics yields better longitudinal stability throughout the entire acceleration cycle. In addition, simulations predict a higher threshold for the electron cloud driven single bunch instability, which might become an important limitation for high intensity LHC beams with the nominal 25 ns bunch spacing. This contribution gives a summary of the experimental and simulation studies, addressing also space charge effects and the achievable brightness with high intensity single bunch beams.

Intra-beam scattering is a small angle multiple Coulomb scattering effect, leading to emittance growth. It becomes important for high brightness beams in low emittance lepton rings, but also hadron synchrotrons and ring colliders. Several theoretical models have been developed over the years, however, when the IBS becomes predominant, the divergence between the models becomes important. In addition, the theoretical models are based on the consideration of Gaussian beams and uncoupled transverse motion. Recently, two multi-particle tracking codes have been developed, in order to enable the understanding of the IBS influence on the beam distribution and the inclusion of coupling. The comparison between theoretical models in different lattices and different regimes is discussed here and the benchmarking of the theoretical models with the tracking codes is presented. Finally, first measurement results are presented in low emittance rings and hadron synchrotrons.
