  The impact on beam-beam effects in the non-linear dynamics of colliding hadron beams is reviewed, with emphasis on simulation and measurement examples from the LHC and its High-Luminosity upgrade (HL-LHC). The main limitation encountered is the effect of the beam-beam long range (BBLR) interaction which limits the beam lifetime at collision and is well correlated with the minimum dynamic aperture (DA), as shown by measurements in the LHC. Thereby, multi-parametric DA simulations are used as a guide in order to define the collider settings and beam parameters through the LHC run. The same approach is used for validating the operational HL-LHC scenario and improving the beam performance at collision. Recent studies on the impact of tune modulation to the collider lifetime are briefly described. Finally, the potential of BBLR compensation in the HL-LHC era is evaluated through simulations and LHC machine studies.

  A local Crab Cavity (CC) scheme will recover the head-on collisions at the IP of the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC), which aims to increase the LHC luminosity by a factor of 3-10. The tight space constraints at the CC location result in axially non-symmetric cavity designs that introduce high order multipole CC components. The impact of these high order components on the long term stability of the beam in the SPS machine, where two prototype crab cavities are presently installed in the CERN SPS to perform tests with beam, is presented. Furthermore, the Dynamic Aperture is studied in the presence of the SPS errors. Future plans are discussed.
