Collisions with beams of highly asymmetric rigidities (proton-Gold and proton-Aluminum) were provided for the RHIC physics programs in 2015. Magnets were moved for the first time in RHIC prior to the run to accommodate the asymmetric beam trajectories during acceleration and at store. A special ramping scheme was designed to keep the revolution frequencies of the beams in the two rings equal. The unique operational experience of the asymmetric run will be reviewed.

Electron lenses were used for head-on beam-beam compensation for the first time in the 2015 Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) 100~GeV polarized proton run. Lattices with the achromatic telescopic squeeze (ATS) scheme of β* are adopted to improve the off-momentum dynamic aperture. The phase advances between the electron lenses to one of the two collisional points are set to kπ to minimize the beam-beam resonance driving terms. In this article, we present the results from weak-strong and strong-strong beam-beam simulations with head-on beam-beam compensations for these lattices. Simulations are also carried out aiming to explain the observations from operation.

  A third-harmonic RF system to increase the Touschek lifetime is under study for the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) Extremely Brilliant Source (EBS) storage ring, in particular for modes with high current per bunch. Multi-particle simulations have been done to study the bunch lengthening and shape in presence of inductive impedance and a third-harmonic RF system.

The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) has two main operating modes with heavy ions and polarized protons respectively. In addition to a continuous increase in the bunch intensity in all modes, two major new systems were completed recently mitigating the main luminosity limit and leading to significant performance improvements. For heavy ion operation stochastic cooling mitigates the effects of intrabeam scattering, and for polarized proton operation head-on beam-beam compensation mitigated the beam-beam effect. We present the performance increases with these upgrades for heavy ions and polarized protons, as well as an overview of all operating modes past and planned.

  The ESRF-EBS lattice model is updated to include the effect of magnetic lengths in dipoles, quadrupoles, sextupoles and combined function magnets. The effect of this modification and the updates to the injection cell are considered with particular focus on injection efficiency and Touschek lifetime. The solutions to introduce new sources of radiation suitable for the existing bending magnet radiation beamlines are also presented.

  The Robust Conjugate Direction Search (RCDS)* optimizer is applied for online optimizations of the ESRF accelerators. This paper presents the successful application of the algorithm in reducing vertical emittance, improving injection efficiency and increasing lifetime. A new set of sextupole settings to increase chromaticity has been obtained with lifetimes comparable to the existing one. This allows to run with double current in a single bunch, and unifies the optics for few bunch (except 4x10 bunches) and multi-bunch modes.

  With the introduction of top-up operation at the ESRF it becomes important to reduce as much as possible any kind of perturbation seen by the users during injection. For this purpose, a novel technique to improve injection efficiency by shaping the horizontal beam phase space to better match the storage ring acceptance and hence reduce the duration of injections was developed. Theoretical concept, simulations and first experimental results are presented.
