The HL-LHC project relies on large aperture quadrupoles which are compatible with the very large beam sizes in the inner triplets resulting from the strong reduction of β*. As a result the beam is much more sensitive to non-linear perturbations in this region, such as those induced by the fringe fields of the low-beta quadrupoles. The spatial extension of these fringe fields increases as well more or less linearly with the coil aperture, which is an additional motivation to analyse this aspect in detail in the framework of the High Luminosity LHC design study. This paper will quantify this effect both by direct analytical estimates using first order Hamiltonian perturbation theory, and via numerical studies thanks to the dedicated implementation of a fringe field symplectic integrator in SixTrack.
