  Electron bunch length in a storage ring is typically measured with streak cameras, electro-optic devices or non-linear cross-correlation techniques with a range of system complexity, signal-to-noise ratios and cost. Another straight-forward method is to construct an 'intensity interferometer' utilizing a coincidence detector to record simultaneous photon arrival events. In this configuration, visible SR light is passed through a narrow bandpass filter followed by a small pinhole to generate a stream of single-mode monochromatic wavepackets. As the interferometer delay is scanned across an electron bunch, two-photon events occurring within the longitudinal coherence time of the light cause a reduction in the measured coincidence rate. The resulting autocorrelation of the optical pulse duration reveals the electron bunch length, independent of synchrotron oscillation motion. In this paper we comment on the theory and report on preliminary measurements carried out at SPEAR3.

MOPAB011 Impact on the HL-LHC Triplet Region and Experiments From Asynchronous Beam Dumps on Tertiary Collimators proton, neutron, photon, interface 96

  Accidental beam impacts on the tertiary collimators (TCTs) can lead to significant energy deposition in the triplet region and to leakage of the induced particle shower towards the experimental cavern. In this work, carried out in the context of the planned High Luminosity Upgrade of the LHC, severe impacts from asynchronous beam dumps on the horizontal tertiary collimators in cells 4 and 6 of the CMS insertion were studied, with half or a full proton bunch impacting on a collimator jaw. The choice of jaw material is shown to be of great importance, with over a factor of 10 increase in peak energy density values in the triplet coils moving from tungsten (Inermet) to molybdenum graphite jaws. Nevertheless, although the quench limit is exceeded in at least one or more triplet magnets in all the evaluated scenarios, values remain well below the damage limit. Energy spectra of particles leaking into the experimental cavern have also been estimated and are presented here.

Skew Parametric-resonance Ionization Cooling (Skew PIC) is designed for the final 6D cooling of a high-luminosity muon collider. Tracking of muons in such a channel has been modeled in MADX and matter-dominated simulation tool G4beanline in previous studies. In this work, we developed an optimization code based on Genetic Algorithm (GA). We optimized the cooling channel and increased the acceptance of the channel by using the GA code.

  The ARIEL electron linac is a 0.3 MW CW accelerator, extensible to 0.5 MW, being installed at TRIUMF for radioactive beam production. To date, 17 view screen monitors have been installed along the beamline and have proven to be essential tools in the commissioning of e-linac systems. These are populated by two types of beam targets: P46 scintillator screens which provide diagnostics for low duty factor operation, while at locations with beam energies at and above 10 MeV, OTR foils using either Pyrolytic Graphite or Niobium foils are included to provide coverage up to 100's of μA average beam current. The design of the view screen is described including the image acquisition system and beam target selection. The performance thus far of the OTR foils under low duty factor commissioning is presented including quantification of the OTR emission distribution, thermal studies, and transmission of the beam through the linac after intercepting a foil.

MOPAB047 Electron Beam Phase Space Tomography at the European XFEL Injector emittance, electron, quadrupole, FEL 196
 
  • M. Scholz, B. Beutner
    DESY, Hamburg, Germany
 
  The FEL process is determined by the 6D phase space distribution of relativistic electron bunches. Experimental reconstructions of these distributions are therefore a step foreward to understand the beam dynamics and to optimize FEL operation. The reconstructions of the transverse phase spaces can be acieved with tomographic methods. In the injector of the European XFEL, measurements for the reconstruction of the phase spaces were carried out using phase advance scans with multiple quadrupoles. The beam sizes were kept optimized at the measurement screen. A transversely deflecting cavity (TDS) was used to streak the beam vertically. That allows to do longitudinally slice resolved measurements of the horizontal phase space. The horizontal streak required for the slice measurements in the vertical plane was achieved with a correlated linear energy spread and dispersion. In this paper, we present measurement results showing longitudinal slice resolved reconstructions of the transverse phase spaces taken in the European XFEL injector.

  At ALBA the standard orbit response matrix measurement with DC corrector magnet (CM) modulation is being upgraded with an AC excitation of the correctors combined with the synchronized beam position monitor (BPM) acquisition data rate at 10 kHz. Several types of excitation waveforms (sinusoidal vs square types) and frequencies have been tested and compared to optimize the measurement precision and repeatability. The data acquisition time of the ALBA response matrix (88 horizontal and 88 vertical correctors) with the new AC method takes 1 minute to complete instead of 7 minutes of the standard technique.

  One of the objective of the CLIC Test Facility (CTF3) at CERN is to demonstrate the CLIC Drive Beam Recombination concept. An accurate control of the transverse beam parameters is necessary in order to succeed in preserving the beam quality after the recombination. During the activity of the facility we improved our tools and technique for characterising the transverse phase space of the beam before and after recombination. The common quadrupole scan technique was improved by performing constant-beam-size measurement and it was enriched by a tomographic reconstruction of the phase-space. Moreover studies have been performed in order to estimate and subtract the impact of dispersion on such a measurements. An overview of these techniques will be presented with actual measurements performed over the last year of operations of the facility.

  Calibration of a transverse beam profile monitor is of fundamental importance to guarantee the best possible accuracy and reliability of the instrument over time. In LHC the calibration standard for transverse-profile measurements are the wire scanners. Other profile monitors such as beam synchrotron light telescopes and interferometers are calibrated with respect to them. Additional information about single-bunch sizes can be obtained from beam-gas imaging in the LHCb vertex detector, from the transverse convolved beam sizes extracted from luminosity scans at the collision points, and from the evolution of the luminous-region parameters as reconstructed by ATLAS and CMS inner tracker detectors during such scans. For the first time in LHC, a dedicated cross-calibration of all the above-mentioned systems was carried out with beam in 2016. Additionally, dedicated optics measurements were also performed in order to determine with the highest possible accuracy the amplitude function at the interaction points and at the position of the profile monitors. Results of these measurements are presented in this paper.

  The majority of optical diagnostics currently used will not stand up to the requirements of the next generation of particle accelerators. Current methodologies need innovation to be able to reach the sub-micrometre resolution and sensitivity that will be required. One technique that has the potential to meet these requirements is optical transition radiation (OTR) imaging. A new algorithm is proposed which incorporates OTR theory, optical effects and beam distribution. This algorithm takes an existing method used for beam imaging and pushes the limits resolution beyond that normally attainable. In doing so, it can provide a reliable and economical diagnostic for future accelerators. A discussion on further applications of the algorithm is also presented.

  COSY is a versatile racetrack-type synchrotron accelerating protons and deuterons in a range of rigidity between 1 T m and 11 T m. Circulating beam can be slowly extracted on a third order resonance and channeled towards different users. New users of the COSY beam have presented new challenges with specific requests, most notably in term of beam shape. This in turn drove a strong interest to develop and improve characterization and modeling methods in the COSY extraction beam line. In this contribution we will present the different beam characterization methods used and their limitations. We will then discuss the modeling of the line and the importance of an accurate and reliable model of the extraction line. Some of the latest beam measurements are presented and compared to modeled results.

  Funding: Funded under a contribution agreement with NRC (National Research Council Canada) and Capital funding from CFI (Canada Foundation for Innovation).
Two new independent target ion sources with dedicated pre-separators will be built in the ARIEL facility to triple the radioactive ion beam production at TRIUMF. A compact Nier-Johnson type of pre-separator has been designed to achieve a mass resolving power of 300 in order to minimize the undesired radioactive species contaminating the downstream beamlines. It consists of a 112 degree magnetic and a 90 degree toroidal electrostatic dipole with deflection in opposite direction. It also contains electrostatic quadrupole elements in between the dipoles. The electrostatic dipole compensates the energy dispersion of the magnetic dipole. This allows an achromatic mode of operation resulting in a high mass resolving power downstream to the electrostatic deflector even for beams with a high energy spread. We present the result of beam optics calculations for the ARIEL pre-separator.

MOPIK066 COBEA - Optical Parameters From Response Matrices without Knowledge of Magnet Strengths storage-ring, lattice, closed-orbit, betatron 676
 
  • B. Riemann, S. Khan, S. Koetter, T. Weis

  This paper presents some results of Closed-Orbit Bilinear-Exponential Analysis (COBEA), an algorithm designed to decompose (coupled) response matrices into betatron tunes and other optical parameters at beam position monitor and corrector positions. The only additional information strictly required by the algorithm is the ordering of monitors and correctors along the storage ring beam path. The presented method is largely lattice-independent, as no magnet strengths or dimensions are needed, and converges in a reasonable time interval due to usage of gradient-based optimization. After describing key features of the algorithm, a set of COBEA results is compared to LOCO results for the storage rings of MLS and BESSY II. The paper is concluded by a brief discussion of further applications, limits and further development of the COBEA algorithm.

MOPIK071 Dispersion and Beam Optic Parameter Measurements in the Transport Line (E-Weg) from DESY II to PETRA III emittance, quadrupole, injection, synchrotron 692

  The transport line E-Weg extends from the extraction septum in DESY II to the injection septum in PETRA III, and transports electrons at a beam energy of 6.0 GeV. It consists of 3 parts. The first part is in DESY tunnel, the second part is a long drift space in a slanted tube and the third part is in PETRA III tunnel. The vertical plane difference between the tunnels is 1.28 m. The optics was derived from initial values at Transfer Point (UGP) from a previous optics. The total length of the transfer line is about 203 m. Ten screen monitors are used to estimate the profiles of the beam spot for the optics measurements, while 8 BPMs, mostly adjacent to the screens, are used to compare and control the orbits. Two scrapers are installed on either side of the long drift space to trim the beam dimensions in transverse plane. Two FCTs are used to measure the beam current and transfer efficiency. The transverse dispersion and beta functions are measured by extracting the beam from DESY at different energies and analysing the beam profiles at the screen as well as positions at BPMs. The details of such measurements are reported in this paper.

MOPIK073 Calibration of Linear Optics of COSY Based on ORM Data quadrupole, factory, dipole, sextupole 699

  The COoler SYnchrotron in Jülich is a well suited accelerator for a precursor experiment on the direct measurement of the Electric Dipole Moment (EDM) of the deuteron (see* and references within). It provides polarized and unpolarized proton and deuteron beams in the momentum range between 0.3 GeV/c and 3.65 GeV/c**, allows for phase space cooling and is highly flexible with respect to ion-optical settings***. Unfortunately, a model independent linear optics measurement is not possible and so far the existing MAD-X model of COSY does not provide an agreement with the actual machine parameters that is required by future experiments, such as the EDM experiment. Significant deviations with respect to the working point and linear optics have been reported****. As shown in*****, a MAD-X based LOCO (Linear Optics from Closed Orbits) algorithm in a C++ program was successfully developed and carefully benchmarked. This contribution presents the application of the new program on measured ORM data and its capabilities in calibrating linear optics as well as reconstructing machine imperfections such as gradient errors of quadrupole magnets and calibration factors of BPMs and steerers.

  Linear optics are the main lattice parameters characterizing the linear properties of storage rings. Especially for beta function and phase advance, they are the basic lattice functions which must be accurately calibrated to ensure high quality operation of the machine. Model Independent Analysis (MIA), which adopts mathematical statistical methods to extract the effective lattice information of storage rings by directly analyzing the turn-by-turn beam-position-monitor (BPM) measurements, has been applied at HLS-II to calibrate the linear optics model of the storage ring. The measurements of the turn-by-turn BPM data with all of the 32 BPMs are reported in this paper. The calibration results of the beta function using MIA are presented.

  One of the most essential lattice function used for transverse beam dynamics studies of the storage rings is a beta function. It characterizes the linear properties of magnets layout and allows to optimize the compatibility of the model and the machine by reducing the beta-beating. Moreover, the calculation of other parameters like transverse beam emittance, dynamic aperture, energy spread and others, requires knowledge of the quantity of beta function along the ring. Various methods of measurement of this function used in Solaris will be presented.

The Cornell-BNL Electron Test Accelerator CBETA is based on a 36 MeV superconducting linac and on a single 4-pass up/4-pass down linear FFAG return loop, for beam acceleration from 6 to 150 MeV and energy recovery. Numerical beam dynamics simulations have accompanied and eventually validated the quadrupole-doublet FFAG cell technology and parameters, and following that the complete return loop, all along the ERL lattice design process. They are key to assessing and validating the ERL optics and beam behavior over the whole acceleration/ER cycle, and in preparing future machine operation. This paper presents various of these beam dynamics studies, including start-to-end simulations.

  We developed a novel technique to improve the precision and shorten the measurement time of the LOCO (Linear Optics from Closed Orbits) method at NSLS-II [1]. This technique named AC LOCO is based on a sine-wave (AC) beam excitation via fast correctors typically installed at synchrotron light sources for the fast orbit feedback. The beam oscillations are measured by beam position monitors. The narrow band used for the beam excitation and measurement not only allows us to suppress effectively the beam position noise and also makes simultaneously exciting multiple correctors at different frequencies (multi-frequency mode) possible. We demonstrated at NSLS-II that the new technique provides better lattice corrections and achieves two minutes measurement time in the thirty-frequency mode.

  BERLinPro is an energy recovery linac project whose goal is to establish the accelerator physics knowledge and technology needed to produce 50 MeV beams with high current, low normalized emittance, and low losses. Precise measurements of beam parameters are essential for demonstrating the achievement of performance goals. In this paper we present simulations for measurements of energy, energy spread, and bunch length using the tracking code Astra.

  EUV-FEL light source based on ERL has been designed at KEK for EUV lithography light source. The advantage of ERL is to accelerate high average current beam due to CW operation, and it is possible to drive high average power FEL. To generate the target EUV-FEL power, which is 10 kW, the bunch charge of 60 pC, the beam energy of 10.5 MeV and the bunch length of 1 ps are required at the end of the EUV-FEL injector. In order to demonstrate the target beam performance for the EUV-FEL accelerator, a high charge beam test was carried out at the cERL in KEK. We designed a new optics of the cERL injector prior to the high charge beam operation. To calculate beam dynamics more accurately, accelerator models corrected according to the condition of the actual cERL injector is used for the optics design. From results of the optics design that minimized the emittance and bunch length using the corrected accelerator models, the emittance and bunch length at the end of injector are 0.8 mm-mrad and 3.4 ps. Furthermore, based on the design optics, we carried out high bunch charge beam operation.

  ESS proton source is in going to be soon delivered to the ESS project. In order to qualify the source, a series of beam instrumentation diagnostics have been designed and produced. In particular, a specific spectrograph dedicated to the fraction species measurement is currently commissioned. This instrument not only is capable of measuring the fraction species produced by the source, but also it can measure their energy and energy spread, the mass of the different species, and additional spectral rays coming from the gas species in presence in the vacuum chamber. We present in this paper the commissioning of this instrument, the Doppler Shift unit, dedicated to the measurement of the fraction species.

  While emitting low energy photons from a medium or high energy storage ring, the on-axis heat load on the beam line optics can become a critical issue. In addition, the heat load in the bending magnet chamber, especially in the vertical and circular polarization mode of operation may cause some concern. In this work, we compare the heat loads for the APPLE-II and the Knot-APPLE, both optimized to emit 10 eV photons from the 3 GeV TPS. Under this constraint the heat load analysis, synchrotron radiation performance and features in various polarization modes are presented. Additional consideration is given to beam dynamics effect.

LCLSII at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory will add a 4 GeV superconducting Linac to the existing 20 GeV Cu structure. Electron beams from the two sources going through two new variable gap undulators [*] will produce FEL ranging 200-5000 keV at up to 929 kHz, also reaching 20 keV at low frequency. Such performance will be achieved by hybrid design undulators with NdFeB magnet blocks until radiation-induced demagnetization exceeds 0.01%. This is a sizable challenge, as LCLS-II will carry 120 kW beams in both its soft (SXR) and hard (HXR) beam-lines. Even small fractional losses could result excessive if too frequent or not detected and aborted fast enough. A model of SXR undulator was set for FLUKA [**] radiation transport, including segments, phase-shifters, quadrupoles, RFBPM, stands/pillars and interconnecting parts. Components were installed according to MAD files, which were also used to code the optics. Beam-loss/shower propagation was simulated for beam mis-steering, interception at wire scanners and gas-bremsstrahlung interactions. Results help set limits on shut-off times, uniform loss levels and wire scanner use, and to define placement for beam loss monitors.

  Each beam of CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) stores 360 MJ at design energy and design intensity. In the unlikely event of an asynchronous beam dump, not all particles would be extracted immediately. They would still take one turn around the ring, oscillating with potentially high amplitudes. In case the beam would hit one of the experimental detectors or the collimators close to the interaction points, severe damage could occur. In order to minimize the risk during such a scenario, a new interlock system was put in place in 2016. This system guarantees a phase advance of zero degrees (within tolerances) between the extraction kicker and the interaction point. This contribution describes the motivation for this new system as well as the technical implementation and the strategies used to derive appropriate tolerances to allow sufficient protection without risking false beam dump triggers.

Studies on luminous region and pile-up density are of great interest for the experiments at the future High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) in order to optimize the detector performance. The evolution of these parameters at the two main interaction points of the HL-LHC along optimum physics fills is studied for the baseline and alternative operational scenarios with the latest set of parameters, including a refined description of the longitudinal bunch profile. Results are discussed in terms of a new figure-of-merit, the effective pile-up density.

We present recent measurements demonstrating control of unstable beam motion in single bunch and bunch train configurations at the SPS. The work is motivated by anticipated intensity increases from the LIU and HL-LHC upgrade programs, and has included the development of a GHz bandwidth reconfigurable 4 GS/S signal processor with wideband kickers and associated amplifiers. The system was operated at 3.2GS/s with 16 samples across a 5 ns RF bucket (4.2 ns bunch at injection). The experimental results confirm damping of intra-bunch instabilities in both Q20 and Q26 optics configurations for intensities of 2x1011 P/bunch. Instabilities with growth times of 200 turns are well-controlled from injection, consistent with the achievable gains for the 2 installed stripline kickers with 1 kW broadband power. Measurements from multiple studies in single-bunch and bunch train configurations show achieved damping rates, control of multiple intra-bunch modes, behavior of the system at injection and final damped noise floor. We present an analysis method to study the relative phase of slice motion during a transient to discriminate between TMCI and other types of Head-Tail instabilities.

The FCC-hh (Future Hadron-Hadron Circular Collider) is one of the three options considered for the next generation accelerator in high-energy physics as recommended by the European Strategy Group. The layout of FCC-hh has been optimized to a more compact design following recommendations from civil engineering aspects. The updates on the first order and second order optics of the ring will be shown for collisions at the required centre-of-mass energy of 100 TeV. Special emphasis is put on the dispersion suppressors and general beam cleaning sections as well as first considerations of injection and extraction sections.

In this paper the effect of field imperfections on the dynamic aperture, using the updated lattice design, is presented. Tolerances on the main multipole components are evaluated including feed-down effect.

We discuss the characteristics of this radiation in terms of power, flux, photon spectrum and fans in different running conditions such as, for example, with and without crossing angle. We mainly focus our study on the fraction of photons that may hit the detector, with a full tracking into GEANT4 that simulates their interaction within the central beam pipe.

TUPVA009 Multiparametric Response of the LHC Dynamic Aperture in Presence of Beam-Beam Effects emittance, simulation, luminosity, octupole 2051

  We performed extended simulations of LHC dynamic aperture (DA) in the presence of beam-beam effects in the weak-strong approximation, evaluating the contributions of parameters such as: tunes, optics, bunch intensity, crossing angle, emittance, chromaticity and current in the Landau octupoles. Here we present a summary of these studies, giving an overview of the amplitude of the LHC operational space and pointing out the remaining margins for mitigation of instabilities. These studies supported the actions deployed during the 2016 run of the LHC, which aimed at maximising its performances. Examples of such actions are the switch to lower emittance beams, the reduction of crossing angle and tune trims. More recently, DA scans have been used to help the definition of the operational scenarios for the 2017 run. Additional room for improvements, for instance by deploying crossing angle levelling, will be explained.

TUPVA021 Impact of Collision Debris in the HL-LHC ATLAS and CMS Insertions luminosity, proton, insertion, radiation 2093
 
  • A. Tsinganis, F. Cerutti
    CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
 
  The High Luminosity upgrade of the LHC (HL-LHC) foresees the baseline operation of the accelerator at a 5 times higher peak luminosity (5.0x1034cm-2s−1). The impact of collision debris on the magnets and other equipment in the triplet region and matching section of the ATLAS and CMS insertions has been evaluated by means of detailed FLUKA models implementing the latest optics and layout version. Qualitative and quantitative differences between the vertical and horizontal beam crossing schemes are highlighted. With measures in place to mitigate the effects of the interruption of the beam screen in the triplet interconnections and the Q4 aperture reduction, peak dose values in the superconducting coils remain below 30MGy in the triplet-D1 and below 12MGy in the matching section magnets for an integrated luminosity of 3000fb-1. Peak power density values are lower than 3mW/cm3 and 1mW/cm3 in the triplet and matching section respectively. Total heat loads in magnets, collimators, masks and absorbers were also estimated, along with dose and particle fluence maps relevant for Radiation to Electronics (R2E) aspects. The effect of a displacement of the interaction point is also addressed.

Crab Cavities will be installed in the High Luminosity LHC in order to increase the effective peak luminosity through a partial compensation of the geometric factor. This will allow extending the levelling time resulting in an increased production of integrated luminosity. Based on the availability of the LHC during 2016 operation, the expected yearly-integrated luminosity of the future HL-LHC was estimated using a Monte Carlo model. Crab cavity faults were added to the observed failure distribu-tions and their impact on integrated luminosity produc-tion as a function of fault time and fault frequency was studied. This allows identifying a breakeven point in luminosity production and defining minimum system availability requirements for the crab cavities to reach the design goal of 250 fb-1 of integrated luminosity per year.

The Future Circular Collider hadron-hadron (FCC-hh) design study is currently exploring different IR design possibilities including round and flat optics or different crossing schemes. The present study intends to evaluate each scenario from the beam-beam effects point of view. In particular the single particle long term stability to maximize beam lifetimes and luminosity reach is used to quantify the differences. The impact of strong head on interactions on the beam quality and lifetime is addressed by means of GPU accelerated simulations code featuring a weak-strong 6-dimensional beam-beam interaction.

Long range beam-beam effects are responsible for particle losses and define fundamental operational parameters of colliders (i.e. crossing angles, intensities, emittances, β*). In this study we propose octuple magnets as a possible scheme to efficiently compensate long-range beam-beam interactions with a global correction scheme. The impact and improvements on the dynamic aperture of colliding beams together with estimates of the luminosity potentials are discussed for the HL-LHC upgrade and extrapolations made for the FCC project. Results are compared to other compensating schemes.

  The LHC operation relies on a good knowledge of the optics, usually corrected in absence of beam-beam interactions. In a near future, both the LHC and the HL-LHC will need to cope with large head-on beam-beam parameters, the impact on the optics needs to be understood and, if necessary, corrected. The results of a dedicated experiment performed at injection energy are discussed in this paper.

The international Future Circular Collider (FCC) study comprises the study of a new scientific structure in a tunnel of 100 km. This will allow the installation of two accelerators, a 45.6'175 GeV lepton collider and a 100-TeV hadron collider. An optimized design of a final-focus system for the hadron collider is presented here. The new design is more compact and enables unequal β* in both planes, whose choice is justified here. This is followed by energy deposition studies, where the total dose in the magnets as a consequence of the collision debris is evaluated.

The Future Circular Collider (FCC) design study aims to develop the design of possible circular colliders in the LHC era. In particular the FCC-hh will aim to produce proton-proton collisions at a center of mass energy of 100 TeV. The interaction region has been designed to meet the requirements in terms of energy and luminosity. However, as it is the case in any real accelerator, misalignments in the magnets are likely to occur; the effect of these misalignments, if not properly compensated for, can jeopardize the performance of the machine. This study contemplates alignment and field errors in the interaction region in order to estimate the tolerance necessary to provide a good correction measured in terms of deviation of the orbit and strength of the correctors.

TUPVA041 Exploring the Triplet Parameter Space to Optimise the Final Focus of the FCC-hh quadrupole, shielding, target, radiation 2155

  One of the main challenges when designing final focus systems of particle accelerators is maximising the beam stay clear in the strong quadrupole magnets of the inner triplet. Moreover it is desirable to keep the quadrupoles in the inner triplet as short as possible for space and costs reasons but also to reduce chromaticity and simplify corrections schemes. An algorithm that explores the triplet parameter space to optimise both these aspects was written. It uses thin lenses as a first approximation and MADX for more precise calculations. In cooperation with radiation studies, this algorithm was then applied to design an alternative triplet for the final focus of the Future Circular Collider.

A parasitic effect of k-modulation is that if the modulated quadrupole has an offset the modulation results in a dipole like kick forcing the beam on a new orbit. This paper presents a new method using the orthonormality of singular value decomposition that uses this new orbit to estimate the offset. This could be used to measure misalignments or crossing angles but could also help improve k-modulation \beta measurements by predicting the parasitic tune change caused by the new orbit not passing through the centre of the sextupoles.

A head-on beam-beam compensation scheme was implemented for operation in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The compensation consists of a lattice for the minimization of beam-beam driven resonance driving terms, and electron lenses for the reduction of the beam-beam induced tune spread. We describe the implementations of the lattice and electron lenses, and report on measurements of lattice properties and the effect of the electron lenses on the hadron beam.

  HADES is a fixed target experiment using SIS18 heavy-ion beams. It investigates the microscopic properties of matter formed in heavy-ion, proton and pion - induced reactions in the 1-3.5 GeV/u energy regime. In 2014 HADES used a secondary pion beam produced by interaction between high-intensity nitrogen primary beam and a beryllium target. In these conditions beam losses, generated by slow extraction and beam transport to the experimental area, led to activation of the beam line elements and triggered radiation alarms. The primary beam intensity had to be reduced and the beam optics modified in order to keep radiation levels within the allowed limits. Similar beam conditions are requested by HADES experiment for upcoming run in 2018 and in the following years. Therefore, a number of measures have been proposed to improve beam transmission and quality. These measures are: additional shielding, additional beam instrumentation, modification of beam optics and increase of vacuum chambers' apertures in critical locations. The optics study and preliminary results of FLUKA simulations for optimization of location of loss detectors are presented.

  Long-range beam-beam (LRBB) interactions can be a source of emittance growth and beam losses in the LHC during physics and will become even more relevant with the smaller '* and higher bunch intensities foreseen for the High Luminosity LHC upgrade (HL-LHC), in particular if operated without crab cavities. Both beam losses and emittance growth could be mitigated by compensat-ing the non-linear LRBB kick with a correctly placed current carrying wire. Such a compensation scheme is currently being studied in the LHC through a demonstration test using current-bearing wires embedded into col-limator jaws, installed either side of the high luminosity interaction regions. For HL-LHC two options are considered, a current-bearing wire as for the demonstrator, or electron lenses, as the ideal distance between the particle beam and compensating current may be too small to allow the use of solid materials. This paper reports on the ongoing activities for both options, covering the progress of the wire-in-jaw collimators, the foreseen LRBB experiments at the LHC, and first considerations for the design of the electron lenses to ultimately replace material wires for HL-LHC.

Minimization of the beta-beating at the two main interaction points of the LHC arising from the head-on and long-range beam-beam interactions can be performed by adjusting the strength of quadrupole or sextupole correctors. This compensation scheme is applied to the current LHC optics where the results show a significant reduction of the peak and RMS beta-beating; and the impact on the dynamic aperture is computed. A proposal for a similar strategy to be adopted in the High Luminosity LHC is also discussed.

WEPAB002 Pushing the MAX IV 3 GeV Storage Ring Brightness and Coherence Towards the Limit of its Magnetic Lattice lattice, storage-ring, brightness, emittance 2557

  The MAX IV 3 GeV storage ring is presently being commissioned and crucial parameters such as machine functions, emittance, and stored current have either already been reached or are approaching their design specifications*. Once the baseline performance has been achieved, a campaign will be launched to further improve the brightness and coherence of this storage ring for typical x-ray users. During recent years, several such improvements have been designed**. Common to these approaches is that they attempt to improve the storage ring performance using existing hardware provided for the baseline design. Such improvements therefore present more short-term upgrades. In this paper, however, we investigate medium-term improvements assuming power supplies can be exchanged in an attempt to push the brightness and coherence of the storage ring to the limit of what can be achieved without exchanging the magnetic lattice itself. We outline optics requirements, the optics optimization process, and summarize achievable parameters.

WEPAB006 Performance Improvements of the BESSY II Storage Ring by Optimizing the Phase Acceptance injection, sextupole, resonance, storage-ring 2571
 
  • P. Kuske, J. Li
    HZB, Berlin, Germany
 
  Linear optics modifications in order to improve injec-tion efficiency and for the installation of two IDs in one straight section demand an optimization of the sextupole correction scheme. Four harmonic sextupole families were sufficient with the earlier 8-fold symmetric lattice. Today there are ten families of harmonic sextupole mag-nets in addition to the three families of chromatic sextu-poles. This paper describes our experimental approach to find better settings for these harmonic sextupoles based on the direct optimization of the injection efficiency with a longitudinal phase offset between storage ring and the injector - in our case a booster synchrotron. As demon-strated in the paper, the resulting improvement of the phase acceptance of the ring leads to increased momen-tum acceptance by suppressing 3rd order non-systematic resonances. This increases not only the injection effi-ciency for long bunches but also the Touschek lifetime, the largest contribution to the overall lifetime of low emittance storage rings.

WEPAB046 New HMBA Lattice for PF-AR lattice, injection, dynamic-aperture, emittance 2684

  Photon Factory Advanced Ring (PF-AR) has been operated for users about 30 years from 1987. The lattice and optics are not almost changed from the original one as the TRISTAN booster ring constructed in 1984. The lattice employs FODO structure and the horizontal emittance for the 6.5 GeV user run is about 300 nmrad. In order to improve the performance of PF-AR dramatically, the full replacement of the accelerator to the ESRF type HMBA (Hybrid multi bend achromat) lattice is examined. In order to geometrically fit the new lattice to the present PF-AR tunnel, the new ring consists of 12 cells with four long straight sections. The emittance is improved to about 500 pmrad at 3 GeV. With the present user experimental hall at the north half of the ring, at least eight undulator beam lines can be constructed. The simulated dynamic aperture is about 1.5 cm at the long straight section with reasonable magnetic errors and COD correction. The Touschek lifetime is about 6 hours. The beam injection with conventional injection system causes no problem and the beam lifetime is long enough.

  We present recent developments in the accelerator design of CLARA (Compact Linear Accelerator for Research and Applications), the proposed UK FEL test facility at Daresbury Laboratory. The requirement to co-propagate the beam with laser seeds of very different wavelengths has led to a redesign of the section preceding the undulators, with a dogleg being replaced by a chicane. Additional refinements of the facility design include the inter-undulator sections. With this finalised design we show start to FEL simulations for all beam modes envisaged.

WEPAB114 Potential Performance Limit of Storage Rings emittance, storage-ring, quadrupole, sextupole 2836
 
  • X. Huang
    SLAC, Menlo Park, California, USA
 
  The next generation of storage ring light sources will have significantly higher performance as multi-bend achromat cell structures are made practical with strong quadrupole and sextupole magnets. In principle the natural emittance can be made ever smaller with stronger magnets and larger rings until it reaches the true diffraction limit for hard X-rays. By considering the scaling laws of linear optics and nonlinear beam dynamics of storage rings and technical challenges, we explore the potential performance limit of future storage rings. A similar discussion may be applicable to the limit of energy frontier heavy-ion storage ring colliders.

  The international Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) will demonstrate the ionization cooling of muons; the only known technique that can provide high brightness muon beams suitable for applications such as a Neutrino Factory or Muon Collider. MICE is underway at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory and has recently taken the data necessary to characterise the physical processes that underlie the ionization-cooling effect. Measurements of the change in normalised transverse amplitude are presented in two configurations. The measurements of the ionization-cooling effect are discussed.

A wedge absorber within the MICE beam line could serve as a demonstration of the type of emittance exchange needed for 6-D cooling, including the configurations needed for muon colliders, as well as configurations for low-energy muon sources. Parameters for this test are explored in simulation and possible experimental configurations with simulated results are presented.

  In the first commissioning of SuperKEKB, which is 'Phase 1', the new abort system is tested in the High Energy Ring (HER). There is a risk that aborted beams with low emittance and high current may destroy the window for extraction from beam pipe. In order to enlarge the aborted beam at the window, quadrupole field is applied only for the aborted beam. In the Low Energy Ring (LER), quadrupole pulsed magnets will be installed to enlarge the aborted beam, and in the HER, a pair of identical sextupole magnets is installed between the abort kickers and the extraction window. These sextrupole magnets are connected by I or 'I transformation to cancel the geometrical nonlinearity for the stored beam in the ring. This paper will report the optics design for the abort system of the HER as well as the observation of the aborted beam.

  The 100km double ring configuration with shared su-perconducting RF system has been defined as baseline by the circular electron positron collider (CEPC) steering committee. Based on this new scheme, we will get higher luminosity for Higgs (+170%) keeping the beam power in preliminary conceptual design report (Pre-CDR) or to reduce the beam power (19 MW) while keeping same luminosity. CEPC will be compatible with W and Z ex-periment. The luminosity for Z is designed at the level of 1035 cm-2s−1. The requirement for the energy acceptance of Higgs has been reduced to 1.5% by enlarging the ring to 100 km. The optics of arc and final focus system (FFS) with crab sextupoles has been designed, and also some primary dynamic aperture (DA) results were introduced.

  The Achromatic Telescopic Squeezing (ATS) [1] scheme offers new techniques to deliver unprecedentedly small beam spot size at the interaction points of the ATLAS and CMS experiments of the LHC, while perfectly controlling the chromatic properties of the corresponding optics (linear and non-linear chromaticities, off-momentum beta-beating, spurious dispersion induced by the crossing bumps). The first series of beam tests with ATS optics were achieved during the LHC Run I (2011/2012) for a first validation of the basics of the scheme at small intensity. In 2016, a new generation of more performing ATS optics was developed and more extensively tested in the machine, still with probe beams for optics measurement and correction at β*=10 cm, but also with a few nominal bunches to establish first collisions at nominal β* (40 cm) and beyond (33 cm), and to analysis the robustness of these optics in terms of collimation and machine protection. The paper will highlight the most relevant and conclusive results which were obtained during this second series of ATS tests.

Beam storage close to a tune resonance (Qx = 1/3,1/4) can generate transverse resonance island buckets in the x,x' phase space providing a second stable island orbit winding around the standard orbit. The two orbits are well separated, with good life time and stability. Successful user experiments have been conducted at BESSY II and the Metrology Light Source (MLS) *,** with such an operation mode. We discuss the required beam optics setup, the TopUp injection process and present successful measurements taken at photon beamlines at BESSY II.

First beam dynamics studies of a damping wiggler prototype for the CLIC damping rings have been carried out at the KIT storage ring. Effects of the 2.9 T superconducting wiggler on the electron beam in the 2.5 GeV standard operation mode have been measured and compared with theoretical predictions. Higher order multipole components were investigated using local orbit bump measurements. Based on these findings the simulation models for the storage ring optic have been adjusted. The refined optics model has been applied to the 1.3 GeV, low-operation case. This case will be used to experimentally benchmark beam dynamics simulations involving strong wiggler fields and dominant collective effects. We present these measurements, comparisons and the findings of the simulations with the updated low-mode optics model.

  Studies of nonlinear errors in LHC experimental insertions (IRs) during Run 1 were based upon feed-down to tune and coupling from the crossing angle orbit bumps. Useful for validating the magnetic model, this method alone is of limited use to understand discrepancies between magnetic and beam-based measurement. Feed-down from high-order multipoles is also difficult to observe. During Run 2 several alternative methods were tested in the LHC. This paper summarizes the results of these tests, and comments on their potential application to the High-Luminosity LHC upgrade.

The U.S. Government retains a non- exclusive, world-wide license to publish or reproduce this manuscript, or allow others to do so, for U.S. Government purposes.
Baseline design of the JLEIC booster synchrotron is presented. Its aim is to inject and accumulate heavy ions and protons at 285 MeV, to accelerate them to about 7 GeV, and finally to extract them into the ion collider ring. The Figure-8 ring features two 260 deg. achromatic arcs configured with negative momentum compaction lattices, designed to avoid transition crossing for all ion species during the course of acceleration. The arc optics is based on a lightly perturbed 90 deg. FODO, with missing dipoles every fourth half-cell, where the horizontal dispersion is driven partly negative for the inward bending arc leading to negative momentum compaction. The lattice also features a specialized high dispersion injection insert optimized to facilitate the transverse phase-space painting in both planes for multi-turn ion injection. Furthermore, the lattice has been optimized to mitigate magnet error sensitivity and to ease chromaticity correction with two families of sextupoles in each plane. The booster ring is configured with super-ferric, 3 Tesla bends. We are presently launching optimization of the booster synchrotron design to operate in the extreme space-charge dominated regime.

WEPVA055 Pre Orbit Correction Based on Tunnel Level Measurement in SuperKEKB alignment, coupling, factory, emittance 3385

  The SuperKEKB accelerator tunnel has about 30mm displacement in the vertical direction. From the result of optics correction simulation with the tunnel displacement, it was decided that the beamline components align against the smoothed line of the measured tunnel level in order to save the alignment cost and time. In order to compensate the large tunnel displacement, the pre orbit correction based on the tunnel level measurement is applied at the beginning of the phase-1 commissioning, and the beam circulation is achieved with the small number of magnet adjustments. We report the result of the pre orbit correction.

  At the Japanese XFEL facility SACLA, two XFEL beamlines (BL2 and BL3) and an injection line to the SPring-8 storage ring are switched by a kicker magnet. This multi-beamline operation has been tested since February 2015, however, CSR effects at a dogleg beam transport to BL2 with a deflecting angle of 3 degree currently limit the peak current of the electron beam. In order to suppress and cancel out the CSR effects, new beam optics is introduced for the dogleg in January 2017. In the new optics, a deflecting angle of the first kicker magnet is increased to 1.5 degree, which is three times larger than that of the old optics. To drive the kicker magnet, a high-power pattern power supply has been developed. To achieve the maximum output of 300 A and 1 kV, SiC MOSFETs are used as switching modules. The newly developed power supply can generate bipolar trapezoidal current waveforms at 60 Hz, and the amplitude and polarity of each waveform are controlled from pulse to pulse according to the beam energy and destination. The target stability is 10 ppm (peak to peak). In this presentation, we report the design and operation results of the newly developed pattern power supply.

THPAB049 Progress in the Understanding of the Performance Limitations in the CERN Low Energy Ion Ring resonance, ion, sextupole, space-charge 3819
 
  • A. Huschauer, H. Bartosik, S. Hancock, V. Kain

  The performance of heavy ion beams in the CERN Low Energy Ion Ring is mainly limited by beam loss occuring during the radio-frequency capture and the first part of acceleration. Since October 2015, the driving mechanism of these losses has been studied in detail and an interplay of direct space charge forces and excited betatron resonances was identified as the most plausible explanation of the phenomenon. In this paper we summarize the current understanding of the loss mechanism by presenting recent experimental and simulation studies. We discuss strategies to mitigate beam loss and further improve the performance of the accelerator in the future.

We present an algorithm to calculate the off-plane components of the magnetic field from the on-plane components of the magnetic field which are measured on a grid of the plane. The algorithm, which is a general one and it is not restricted on a mid-plane symmetry, is based on the Taylor series expansion of the magnetic field components in terms of the normal to the plane location. The coefficients of the Taylor series expansion are expressed in terms of the on-plane derivatives of the field components which are generated by the measured magnetic field components on the grid of the plane. The algorithm is use in the RATRACE computer code[*] and has been used[**] on a dipole magnet with median plane symmetry.

THPVA015 Application of Modified KV-Distributions to Study the Phase Portrait Transformation of Intense Bunches in Magnetic Fields emittance, cyclotron, electronics, multipole 4448
 
  • H.Y. Barminova
    MEPhI, Moscow, Russia
 
  Modified KV-distribution functions are applied to study the intense bunch behavior in transverse magnetic fields. The functions used allow to consider both the emittance-dominated and charge-dominated bunches in 2D and 3D approximations. Peculiarities of the bunch phase portrait transformation in magnetic fields of achromatic structures are discussed. Particular case is proved to exist characterized by the absence of the emittance transfer.

THPVA032 Space-Charge Simulation of Integrable Rapid Cycling Synchrotron lattice, sextupole, space-charge, resonance 4501
 
  • J.S. Eldred, A. Valishev
    Fermilab, Batavia, Illinois, USA
 
  Integrable optics is an innovation in particle accelerator design that enables strong nonlinear focusing without generating parametric resonances. We use a Synergia space-charge simulation to investigate the application of integrable optics to a high-intensity hadron ring that could replace the Fermilab Booster. We find that incorporating integrability into the design suppresses the beam halo generated by a mismatched KV beam. Our integrable rapid cycling synchrotron (iRCS) design includes other features of modern ring design such as low momentum compaction factor and harmonically canceling sextupoles. Experimental tests of high-intensity beams in integrable lattices will take place over the next several years at the Fermilab Integrable Optics Test Accelerator (IOTA) and the University of Maryland Electron Ring (UMER).

  The PRAE project aims at creating a multidisciplinary R&D facility in the Orsay campus gathering various scientific communities involved in radiobiology, subatomic physics, instrumentation and particle accelerators around an electron accelerator delivering a high-performance beam with energy up to 70 MeV and later 140 MeV, in order to perform a series of unique measurements and future challenging R&D. In addition PRAE will provide a major education and training asset for students and engineers yielding a regional instrument of advanced technology at the heart of the scientific, technological and academic complex of the Paris-Saclay University. In this paper we report the first optics design and performance evaluations of such a multidisciplinary machine, including a first description of future experiments and the required beam instrumentation.

THPVA140 Superconducting Gantry Design for Proton Tomography proton, dipole, quadrupole, linac 4795
 
  • E. Oponowicz, H.L. Owen
    UMAN, Manchester, United Kingdom
 
  Precise proton therapy planning can be assisted by augmenting conventional medical imaging techniques with proton computed tomography (pCT). For adults this requires an incident proton energy up to around 330 MeV, requiring superconducting magnets if an imaging gantry is to replace a conventional 230-250 MeV gantry in the same space. Here we present optics considerations for a superconducting gantry to deliver 330 MeV protons within the context of the future Christie Hospital proton therapy centre, where it is proposed to increase the proton energy in the future with a booster linac.
