Therefore, high beam position stability is needed to provide cen-tral collisions of the opposing bunches. Since ground motion (GM) amplitudes are likely to be larger than the required tolerances, an Active Vibration Control (AVC) system is required to damp quadrupole motion to the desired value of 0.2 nm RMS at 4 Hz. This paper focuses on the vertical final focus quadrupoles (QD0, QF1) stabilization and demonstrates its feasibility. An AVC system to be installed under QD0 and QF1 has been developed and successfully tested at LAPP. Based on a dedicated homemade sensor with an ex-tremely low internal noise level of 0.05 nm at 4 Hz, it damps GM in the frequency range [3;70] Hz by up to 30 dB, leading to RMS values of approximately 0.25 nm at 4 Hz. Simulations based on GM measured in the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experimental hall [2] show that with such a GM level, the specifications would only be achieved with a Passive Insulation (PI) system, which would filter ground motion starting at ~ 25 Hz PB - JACoW CP - Geneva, Switzerland SP - 1290 EP - 1292 KW - controls KW - simulation KW - quadrupole KW - collider KW - ground-motion DA - 2017/05 PY - 2017 SN - 978-3-95450-182-3 DO - 10.18429/JACoW-IPAC2017-TUPAB001 UR - http://jacow.org/ipac2017/papers/tupab001.pdf ER -
