  The detailed study of the Secondary Electron Yield (SEY) of technical Cu for very low electron landing energies (from 0 to 30 eV) is very important for electron cloud build up in high intensity accelerators and in many other fields of research. However, this question has been rarely addressed due to the intrinsic experimental complexity to control very low energy electrons. Furthermore, several results published in the past have been recently questioned for allegedly suffering from experimental systematics. In this paper, we critically review the experimental method used to study low energy SEY and define more precise energy regions, in which the experimental data can be considered valid. The new SEY curves are then fed into e-cloud simulation codes to address their impact for electron cloud predictions in the LHC.

  Electron cloud is an ubiquitous effect in positively charged particle accelerators and has been observed to induce unwanted detrimental impacts on beam quality, stability, vacuum etc. A great effort has been recently devoted to the search of new material morphology and/or coatings which can intrinsically mitigate beam instabilities deriving from electron cloud effects. In this context, we present some characterization of Cu foams, available from the market, and their qualification in terms of their vacuum behavior, impedance, secondary electron yield, gas desorption etc. More experimental effort is required to finally qualify foams as a mature technology to be integrated in accelerator environments. But, our preliminary results suggests that, when compatible with geometrical constrains, Cu foams can be utilized when low desorption yields are required and as e-cloud moderator in future particles accelerators.

  High luminosity particle accelerators can suffer from serious performance drop or limitations due to interaction of the synchrotron radiation produced by the accelerator itself with the accelerator walls. Such interaction may produce a number of photoelectrons, that can either seed electron cloud related instabilities and/or interact anyway with the beam itself, potentially causing its deterioration. To correctly take these effects into account simulation codes depends on the realistic knowledge of Reflectivity and Photoelectron Yield of technical material. In this work we present relevant experimental data for some of the mostly used technical surfaces in accelerators.

  The design of a high luminosity Tau/Charm Factory has been accomplished by the INFN-LNF Laboratory in Frascati in collaboration with the Consortium Nicola Cabibbo Laboratory. The target luminosity is 1035 cm-2 ses−1 at 4.6 GeV in the center of mass. This design is a natural evolution of the SuperB B-Factory, that was aimed to be built in the Rome Tor Vergata University campus as an Italian Flagship Project. The Tau/Charm design keeps all the features that made SuperB a state-of-the art accelerator, such as the “large Piwinski angle and crab waist sextupoles” collision scheme, the super squeezed beams, and the polarized electron beam. As a plus, it will be possible to collect data at high luminosity in a large energy range (2 to 4.6 GeV c. m.), with a peak luminosity target of 1034 cm-2 ses−1 at 2 GeV. The possibility to extend the Linac for a SASE-FEL facility is also taken into account. A Conceptual Design Report* was published in September 2013. In this paper the design principles and the project features are reviewed.
