	A 100 TeV centre-of-mass energy frontier proton collider in a new tunnel of 80–100 km circumference is a central part of CERN’s Future Circular Colliders (FCC) design study. One of the major challenges for such a machine will be the beam dump system, which for each ring will have to reliably abort proton beams with stored energies in the range of 8 Gigajoule, more than an order of magnitude higher than planned for HL-LHC. The transverse proton beam energy densities are even more extreme, a factor of 100 above that of the presently operating LHC. The requirements for the beam dump subsystems are outlined, and the present technological limitations are described. First concepts for the beam dump system are presented and the feasibility is discussed, highlighting in particular the areas in which major technological progress will be needed. The potential implications on the overall machine and other key subsystems are described, including constraints on filling patterns, interlocking, beam intercepting devices and insertion design.

	MedAustron is the Austrian centre for hadron therapy and non-clinical research. The beam chopper system is an essential component for patient safety in specific hazardous situations as well as for beam delivery from the synchrotron to the irradiation rooms. This paper presents the results from the development phase and the commissioning of the MedAustron beam chopper system. Details will be given on the design, the risk management, the test and the verification of the chopper power converter (PKC).

THPF082	Considerations on the Fast Pulsed Magnet Systems for the 2 GeV Beam Transfer from the CERN PSB to PS	3876
	T. Kramer, J.L. Abelleira, W. Bartmann, J. Borburgh, L. Ducimetière, L.M.C. Feliciano, B. Goddard, L. Sermeus CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
	Within the scope of the LIU project the CERN PS Booster to PS beam transfer will be modified to match the requirements for the future 2 GeV proton beam energy upgrade. The paper describes considerations on the PSB extraction and recombination kickers as well as on the injection kicker(s) into the PS. Different schemes of an injection into the PS have been outlined in the past and are reviewed under the aspect of individual transfer kicker rise and fall time performances. Recent measurements on the recombination kickers are presented and subsequently homogenous rise and fall time requirements in the whole PSB to PS transfer chain are presented. The baseline option for the PS injection kicker(s) is outlined and compared to the previously presented concepts.

THPF089	Beam Transfer to the FCC-hh Collider from a 3.3 TeV Booster in the LHC Tunnel	3901

	Transfer of the high brightness 3.3 TeV proton beams from the High Energy Booster (HEB) to the 100 TeV centre-of-mass proton collider in a new tunnel of 80–100 km circumference will be a major challenge. The extremely high stored beam energy means that machine protection considerations will constrain the functional design of the transfer, for instance in the amount of beam transferred, the kicker rise and fall times and hence the collider filling pattern. In addition the transfer lines may need dedicated insertions for passive protection devices. The requirements and constraints are described, and a first concept for the 3.3 TeV beam transfer between the machines is outlined. The resulting implications on the parameters and design of the various kicker systems are explored, in the context of the available technology. The general features of the transfer lines between the machines are described, with the expected constraints on the collider layout and insertion lengths.

	As part of the LHC Injectors Upgrade Project (LIU) the injection system into the SPS will be upgraded for the use with ions. The changes will include the addition of a Pulse Forming Line parallel to the existing PFN to power the kicker magnets MKP-S. With the PFL a reduced magnetic field rise time of 100 ns should be reached. The missing deflection strength will be given by two new septum magnets MSI-V, to be installed between the existing septum MSI and the kickers MKP-S. A dedicated ion dump will be installed downstream of the injection elements. The parameter lists of the elements and studies concerning emittance blow-up coming from the injection system are presented. The feasibility of the 100 ns kicker rise time and the small ripple of the septum power converter are presented. Material studies of the ion dump are presented together with the radiation impact.
