  Crab cavities (CCs) are a key ingredient of the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC)  to ensure head on collisions at the main experiments (ATLAS and CMS) and fully profit from the smaller β* provided by the ATS optics. At KEKB, CCs have exhibited abrupt changes of phase and voltage during a time period of few LHC turns and considering the large energy stored in the HL-LHC beam, CC failures represent a serious risk to the LHC machine protection. In this paper, we discuss the effect of CC voltage or phase changes on a time interval similar to, or longer than, necessary to dump the beam.  The simulations assume a realistic steady-state distribution to assess the beam losses for the HL-LHC.  Additionally, some strategies are studied to mitigate the damage caused by the failures.

  For the HL-LHC it is planned to basically double the diameter of the triplet quadruple magnets around the high luminosity insertions of the LHC. The high luminosity experiments ATLAS and CMS would like to keep a small central chamber radius close the interaction point. In the context of collider-experiment studies for the high-luminosity upgrade of the LHC, we present a first study of the possible consequences of these changes for the experimental running conditions based on detailed simulations with tracking. We have started to implement crab cavity failures and discuss first results from these simulations.
