Abstract |
The 2023 run has been decisive for the LHC Ion Injector Complex. It demonstrated the capability of producing full trains of momentum slip stacked lead ions in the SPS. Slip stacking is a technique of interleaving particle trains, reducing the bunch spacing in SPS from 100 ns to 50 ns. It is needed to reach the total ion intensity requested by the HL-LHC project, as defined by updated common LIU/HL-LHC target beam parameters. This paper reviews the lead beam characteristics across the Ion Injector Complex, including transmission efficiencies up to the SPS extraction. It also documents the difficulties found during the commissioning and the solutions put in place.
