  The measurement and correction of optics parameters has been a major concern since the advent of strong focusing synchrotron accelerators. Traditionally, colliders have led the development of methods for optics control based on turn-by-turn centroid data, while lepton storage rings have focused on closed orbit response techniques. Recently considerable efforts are being invested in comparing these techniques in different light sources and colliders. An emerging class of less invasive optics control techniques based on the optimization of performance related observables is demonstrating a great potential. A review of the existing techniques is presented highlighting comparisons, merits and limitations.

  The Diode ORbit and OScillation System (DOROS) system is designed to provide accurate measurements of the beam position in the LHC. The oscillation part of the system, which is able to provide turn-by-turn data, is used to measure the transverse coupling. Since the system provides high resolution measurements for many turns only small excitations are needed to accurately measure the transverse coupling. In this article we present the performance the system to measure coupling and compare it to the BPMs not equipped with this system.

  The knowledge of the LHC impedance is of primary importance to predict the machine performance and allow for the HL-LHC upgrade. The developed impedance model can be benchmarked with beam measurements in order to assess its validity and limit. This is routinely done, for example, moving the LHC collimator jaws and measuring the induced tune shift. In order to localize possible unknown impedance sources, the variation of phase advance with intensity between beam position monitors can be measured. In this work we will present the impedance localization measurements performed at injection in the LHC using AC dipoles as exciter as well as the underlying theory.

  The Future Circular hadron Collider (FCC-hh), which is designed to operate at a centre-of-mass energy of 100 TeV and to deliver ambitious targets in terms of both instantaneous and integrated luminosity, poses extreme challenges in terms of machine protection during operation and with respect to long-term damages. Energy deposition studies are a crucial ingredient for its design. One of the relevant radiation sources are collision debris particles, which de- posit their energy in the interaction region elements and in particular in the superconducting magnet coils of the final focus triplet quadrupoles, to be protected from the risk of quenching and deterioration. In this contribution, the collision debris will be characterised and expectations obtained with FLUKA will be presented, including magnet lifetime considerations. New techniques including crossing angle gymnastics for peak dose deposition mitigation (as recently introduced in the framework of the LHC operation), will be discussed.

  With a center-of-mass energy of up to 100 TeV, FCC-hh will produce highly energetic collision debris at the Interaction Point (IP). Protecting the final focus quadrupoles from this radiation is challenging, since the required amount of shielding placed inside the magnets will reduce the free aperture, thereby limiting the β* reach and luminosity. Hence, radiation mitigation strategies that make best use of the available aperture are required. In this paper, we study the possibility to split the first quadrupole Q1 into two quadrupoles with individual apertures, in order to distribute the radiation load more evenly and reduce the peak dose.

TUPMW031 Combined Ramp and Squeeze to 6.5 TeV in the LHC 1509

  The cycle of the LHC is composed of an energy ramp followed by a betatron squeeze, needed to reduce the beta- star value in the interaction points. Since Run 1, studies have been carried out to investigate the feasibility of combining the two operations, thus considerably reducing the duration of the operational cycle. In Run 2, the LHC is operating at the energy of 6.5 TeV that requires a much longer cycle than that of Run 1. Therefore, the performance gains from a Combined Ramp and Squeeze (CRS) is more interesting. Merging the energy ramp and the betatron squeeze could result in a gain of several minutes for each LHC cycle. With increasing maturity of LHC operation, it is now possible to envisage more complex beam manipulations; this paper describes the first machine experiment with beam, aiming at validating the combination of ramp and squeeze, which was performed in 2015, during a machine development phase. The operation experience with the LHC run at 2.51 TeV, when CRS down to 4 meters was deployed and a the first results of 2016 run are also reviewed.

A quarter wave β=1 superconducting cavity at 200 MHz is proposed for the LHC as an alternative to the present 400 MHz RF system. The primary motivation of such a system would be to accelerate higher intensity and longer bunches with improved capture efficiency. Advantages related to minimizing electron cloud effects, intra-beam scattering, heating and the possibility of luminosity levelling with bunch length are described. Some considerations related to cavity optimization, beam loading and technological challenges are addressed.

Several alternatives to the present HL-LHC baseline configuration have been proposed, aiming either to improve the potential performance, reduce its risks, or to provide options for addressing possible limitations or changes in its parameters. In this paper we review and compare the performance of the HL-LHC baseline and the main alternatives with the latest parameters set. The results are obtained using refined simulations of the evolution of the luminosity with β*-levelling, for which new criteria have been introduced, such as improved calculation of the intrabeam scattering and the addition of penalty steps to take into account the necessary time to move between consecutive optics during the process. The features of the set of optics are discussed for the nominal baseline.

TUPMW036 Optimizing Chromatic Coupling Measurement in the LHC 1520
 
  • T. Persson, R. Tomás
    CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
 
  Optimizing chromatic coupling measurement in the LHC Chromatic coupling introduces a dependency of transverse coupling with energy. LHC is equipped with skew sextupoles to compensate the possible adverse effects of chromatic coupling. In 2012 a beam-based correction was calculated and applied successfully for the fist time. However, the method used to reconstruct the chromatic coupling was dependent on stable tunes and equal chromaticities between the horizontal and vertical planes. In this article an improved method to calculate the chromatic coupling without these constraints is presented.

The beam halo population is a non-negligible factor for the performance of the LHC collimation system and the machine protection. In particular this could become crucial for aiming at stored beam energies of 700 MJ in the High Luminosity (HL-LHC) project, in order to avoid beam dumps caused by orbit jitter and to ensure safety during a crab cavity failure. Therefore several techniques to safely deplete the halo, i.e. active halo control, are under development. In a first attempt a novel way for safe halo depletion was tested with particle narrow-band excitation employing the LHC Transverse Damper (ADT). At an energy of 450 GeV a bunch selective beam tail scraping without affecting the core distribution was attempted. This paper presents the first measurement results, as well as a simple simulation to model the underlying dynamics.

  Ground motion compensation using feed-forward control is a novel technique being developed to combat beam imperfections resulting from the vibration-induced misalignment of beamline components. The method is being evaluated experimentally at the KEK Accelerator Test Facility 2 (ATF2). It has already been demonstrated that the beam position correlates with the readings from a set of seismometers located along the beamline. To compensate for this contribution to the beam jitter, the fully operational system will use realtime measurement and processing in order to calculate and apply the feed-forward correction on a useful time scale. The progress towards a working system is presented in this paper.

  The LHC beta functions (β) can be measured using the phase or the amplitude of betatron oscillations obtained with beam position monitors (BPMs). Using the amplitude information results in a β measurement affected by BPM calibration. This work aims at calibrating BPMs using optics measurements. For this, βs from amplitude and phase and normalized dispersion obtained from many different measurements in 2015 with different optics and corrections are analyzed. Simulations are also performed to support the analyses.

  A nanometer beam size in the interaction point (IP) is required in case of future linear colliders for achieving the desired rate of particle collisions. KEK Accelerator Test Facility (ATF2), a scaled down implementation of the beam delivery system (BDS), serves for investigating the limits of electron beam focusing at the interaction point. The goal of the ultra-low beta∗ study is to lower the IP vertical beam size by lowering the betay∗ value while keeping the betax∗ value unchanged. Good control over the beam optics is therefore required. The first experience with low beta∗ optics revealed a mismatch between the optics designed in the model with respect to the beam parameters observed in the experiment. Additionally, existing methods of beam parameters characterization at the IP were biased with high uncertainties making it difficult to set the desired optics. In this paper we report on the new method introduced in ATF2 for IP beam parameters characterization which gives a good control over the applied optics and makes the ultra-low beta∗ study possible to conduct. It can be also used for verifying the performance of some of the existing beam instrumentation devices.

  In preparation of the optics commissioning at an energy of 6.5 TeV, many improvements have been done to cope with the expected reduced signal to noise ratio due to lowered bunch intensities imposed by machine protection considerations. This included, among others, an increase of the flat top duration of the AC dipole excitations, which allowed to use more turn-by-turn data for the analysis. The longer data acquisition revealed slow drifts of the optics, which limited the increased measurement precision. Furthermore, we will present how orbit drifts influenced dispersion measurements and, as a consequence, posed another limitation for the optics correction. In this paper we will discuss the implications of these observations for the measurement and correction of the optics.

  The N-BPM and the Amplitude methods, which are used in the LHC for beam optics measurement, were applied to the ESRF storage ring. We compare the results to the Orbit Response Matrix (ORM) method that is routinely used in the ESRF. These techniques are conceptually different since the ORM is based on the orbit response upon strength variation of steering magnets while the LHC techniques rely on the harmonic analysis of turn-by-turn position excited by a kicker or an AC dipole. Finally, we compare these methods and show the differences in their performance in the ESRF environment.

  Future operations of the LHC will require a good understanding of the nonlinear beam dynamics. In 2012, turn-by-turn measurements of large diagonal betatron excitations in LHC Beam 2 were taken at injection energy. Spectral analysis of these measurements shows an anomalous octupolar spectral line at frequency -Qx-2Qy in the horizontal motion. The presence of this spectral line, as well as other lines, was confirmed by measurements taken for LHC Beam 1 and Beam 2 during the commissioning in 2015. We take a close look at the various spectral lines appearing in the LHC transverse motion in order to improve the LHC nonlinear model.

  Correction of nonlinear magnetic errors in low-β insertions can be of critical significance for the operation of a collider. This is expected to be of particular relevance to LHC Run II and the HL-LHC upgrade, as well as to future colliders such as the FCC. Current correction strategies for these accelerators have assumed it will be possible to calculate optimized local corrections through the insertions using a magnetic model of the errors. To test this assumption the nonlinear errors in the LHC experimental insertions have been examined via feed-down and amplitude detuning. It will be shown that while in some cases the magnetic measurements provide a sufficient description of the errors, in others large discrepancies exist which will require beam-based correction techniques.

  Commissioning of the nonlinear optics at injection in the LHC was carried out for the first time in 2015 via beam-based methods. Building upon studies performed during Run I, corrections to the nonlinear chromaticity and detuning with amplitude were obtained. These corrections were observed to reduce beam-loss during measurement of linear optics.

  For the high luminosity upgrade of the LHC optics correction in the interaction regions is expected to be challenged by the very low β* and the sizable expected quadrupolar errors in the triplet. This paper addresses the performance and limitations of the segment-by-segment technique to correct quadrupolar and skew quadrupolar errors in the HL-LHC IR via computer simulations. Required improvements to this technique and possible combinations with other correction approaches are also presented including experimental tests in the current LHC IR.

  The dynamic aperture of an accelerator is determined by its non-linear components and errors. Control of the dynamic aperture is important for a good understanding and operation of the accelerator. The AC dipole, installed in the LHC for the diagnostic of linear and non-linear optics, could serve as a tool for the determination of the dynamic aperture. However, since the AC dipole itself modifies the non-linear dynamics, the dynamic aperture with and without AC dipole are expected to differ. This paper will report the results of studies of the effect of the AC dipole on the dynamic aperture.

  This paper summarizes the re-optimization study made on the CLIC Beam Delivery System (BDS) in the framework of the rebaselining for beam collisions at 380 GeV for the initial energy stage. It describes the optimization process applied for the beam parameters as well as for the Final Focus system (FFS) lattice design with respect to the energy upgrade transition to 3 TeV. Both initial and final energy stages were optimized for a short (nominal) and a long L* (6 meters). The long L* option allows the last quadrupole (QD0) to be be located outward of the detector solenoid field influence. FFS optics designs based on the Local chromaticity correction and performance comparisons for both L* options are shown.

  Tuning the Final-Focus System of future linear colliders is one of the open challenges the linear collider community is undertaking. Future colliders like ILC and CLIC will feature complex lattice design to focus the beams to nanometer level at the Interaction Point. Standard Beam-Based Alignment (BBA) techniques have proven to hardly meet the requirements in terms of acceptable emittance growth, in both machines. A set of new techniques, respectively called: nonlinear Dispersion-Free Steering (DFS), DFS-knobs scan, and hybrid DFS-knobs with beamsize measurements, have been put in place to cope with the challenge. This paper will reveal the key ideas behind the new techniques, and compare their effectiveness w.r.t. the conventional BBA tuning procedures.

  Beam tuning in the beam delivery system (BDS) is one of the major challenges for the future linear colliders. In those colliders, due to fast detuning of the final focus optics both beamlines will need to be tuned simultaneously. An initial two-beam tuning study for the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) BDS had been performed, but was not fully satisfactory. In this paper a more extensive study is presented, as well as several improvements to the tuning algorithm. A comparative study between two competing CLIC final focus systems (FFS), the traditional and the compact FFS, will be discussed.
