Funding: Work supported by the European Commission under the FP7 Research Infrastructures project Eu- CARD, grant agreement no. 227579. We report the status of the optics design for a local chromatic correction with extremely-flat beams at the LHC. Together with a Large Piwinski angle, this optics opens up the possibility of crab-waist collisions at the LHC, for which a new layout of the LHC insertion region (IR) is needed. We present a complete optics and discuss the parameters of the final "double-half" quadrupole. |

WEPEA059 | Study of the Impact of Fringe Fields of the Large Aperture Triplets on the Linear Optics of the HL-LHC | 2642 |

Funding: The HiLumi LHC Design Study is included in the HL-LHC project and is partly funded by the European Commission within the Framework Programme 7 Capacities Specific Programme, Grant Agreement 284404 High-luminosity hadron colliders such as the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) project place demanding requirements on existing and new magnet technology. The very low β* achieved by the Achromatic Telescopic Squeeze (ATS) optics scheme* for the HL-LHC in particular, requires large apertures in the high gradient Nb3Sn final focusing inner triplet triplet. Such magnets have extended fringe fields which perturb the linear and non-linear optics. This paper presents results of studies into the liner optics of the LHC using a range of fringe field models, including measurements of fringe fields from prototype magnets, and presents calculations of the beta-beating in the machine. Furthermore a similar study is presented on the nominal LHC optics, which uses final focus quadrupoles of higher gradient but significantly smaller aperture. * S.
