Abstract The transverse impedance is one of the potentially limiting effects for the performance of the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). In the current LHC, the impedance is dominated by the resistive-wall contribution of the collimators at typical bunch-spectrum frequencies, and is of broad-band nature. Nevertheless, the fundamental mode of the crab cavities, that are a vital part of the HL-LHC baseline, adds a strong and narrow-band contribution. The resulting coupled-bunch instability, which contains a strong head-tail component, requires dedicated mitigation measures, since the efficiency of the transverse damper is limited against such instabilities, and Landau damping from octupoles would not be sufficient. The efficiency and implications of various mitigation strategies, based on RF feedbacks and optics changes, are discussed, along with first measurements using crab cavity prototypes at the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS).
