The Advanced Proton Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration Experiment (AWAKE) is a proof-of-principle R&D experiment at CERN. It is the world’s first proton driven plasma wakefield acceleration experiment, using a high-energy proton bunch to drive a plasma wakefield for electron beam acceleration. The AWAKE experiment will be installed in the former CNGS facility and uses the 400 GeV proton beam bunches from the SPS, which will be sent to a plasma source. An electron beam will be injected into the plasma cell to probe the accelerating wakefield. Challenging modifications in the area and new installations are required for AWAKE. First proton beam to the experiment is expected late 2016. The accelerating electron physics will start late 2017. This paper gives an overview of the project from a physics and engineering point of view, it describes the main activities, the milestones, the organizational set-up for the project management and coordination.

Longitudinal multi-bunch instability in the CERN SPS with a very low intensity threshold is a serious limitation for the future doubling of bunch intensity required by Hi-Lumi LHC project. A complete and accurate impedance model is essential to understand the nature of this instability and to plan possible cures. This contribution describes in detail the current longitudinal impedance model of the SPS. Recently, the model was updated with new findings and includes now the impedance of accelerating cavities, kicker and septum magnets, beam position monitors, vacuum Flanges, shielded and unshielded pumping ports, electrostatic septa and resistive wall. Electromagnetic simulations and bench measurements were used to build the model. The contribution from each element is described and compared to the total machine impedance. Together with relevant beam measurements and simulations, the analysis of the different sources of impedance is used to identify the source of the longitudinal instability limiting the SPS performance so that the responsible elements can be acted upon.

In the framework of the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) program, it is foreseen to take all the necessary measures to avoid electron cloud effects in the CERN-SPS. This can be achieved by either relying on beam induced scrubbing or by coating the vacuum chambers with intrinsically low Secondary Electron Yield (SEY) material over a large fraction of the ring. To clearly establish the potential of beam induced scrubbing, and to eventually decide between the two above options, an extensive scrubbing campaign is taking place at the SPS. Ten days in 2014 and two full weeks in 2015 are devoted to machine scrubbing and scrubbing qualification studies. This paper summarizes the main findings in terms of scrubbing efficiency and reach so far, addressing also the option of using a special doublet beam and its implication for LHC.
