MOPGW070	Longitudinal Stability of the Hollow Ion Bunches After Momentum Slip-Stacking in the CERN SPS	254
	T. Argyropoulos, A. Lasheen, D. Quartullo, E.N. Shaposhnikova CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
	Momentum slip-stacking is planned to be used for the lead ion beams in the CERN SPS to double the beam intensity for the High-Luminosity LHC project. During this RF manipulation two SPS batches, controlled by two independent RF systems, are going to be interleaved on an intermediate energy plateau, reducing the bunch spacing from 100 to 50 ns. However, there are limitations how close the frequencies of two RF systems can approach each other, resulting in a hole in the longitudinal bunch particle distribution due to the offset in energy of the recaptured bunches. After filamentation, these bunches should be further accelerated to the SPS top energy, before extraction to the LHC. Macro-particle simulations have shown that Landau damping is lost for the bunches with the smallest longitudinal emittances in the batch, causing un-damped oscillations of the bunch core after recapture. The standard application of an additional, fourth harmonic RF system, successfully used in proton operation, was not able to damp the oscillations at top energy, while it was necessary to switch it on from the moment of recapture. In this paper the longitudinal stability of the bunches after slip-stacking is studied in more details both by macro-particle simulations and analytical calculations.

MOPGW091	Capture and Flat-Bottom Losses in the CERN SPS	327
	M. Schwarz, A. Lasheen, G. Papotti, J. Repond, E.N. Shaposhnikova, H. Timko CERN, Meyrin, Switzerland
	Particle losses on the flat bottom of the SPS, the last accelerator in the injector chain of the LHC at CERN, are a strong limitation for reaching the high intensities required by the high luminosity upgrade of the LHC. Two contributions to these losses are investigated in this paper. The first losses occur during the PS-to-SPS bunch-to-bucket transfer, since the bunch rotation in the PS creates halo particles and the bunch does not completely fit into the SPS RF-bucket. The effect of longitudinal shaving in the PS on the beam transmission was recently tested. At high intensities, further capture losses are caused by beam loading in the traveling wave RF system of the SPS, which is partially compensated by the LLRF system, in particular by one-turn delay feedback. While the feedforward system reduces the capture losses, it also increases the losses along the flat bottom due to the RF noise.

	A reliable impedance model of a particle accelerator can be built by combining the beam coupling impedances of all the components. This is a necessary step to be able to evaluate the machine performance limitations, identify the main contributors in case an impedance reduction is required, and study the interaction with other mechanisms such as optics nonlinearities, transverse damper, noise, space charge, electron cloud, beam-beam (in a collider). The main phases to create a realistic impedance model, and verify it experimentally, will be reviewed, highlighting the main challenges. Some examples will be presented revealing the levels of precision of machine impedance models that have been achieved.

	The LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) project at CERN aims at doubling the total intensity of the lead ion beam for the High-Luminosity (HL) LHC.

Slip-stacking will be applied on an intermediate energy plateau to interleave two batches, reducing the bunch spacing from 100 ns to 50 ns and thus increasing the total number of bunches injected into the LHC. Realistic macro-particle simulations, with the present SPS impedance model are used to study and design this complicated beam manipulation. Slip-stacking can be tested experimentally only after the upgrade of the SPS 200 MHz RF system, in 2021. Preliminary, slip-stacking related beam measurements were performed at the end of 2018. In this paper both macro-particle simulations and beam measurements are reported with emphasis given on optimisation of the process, crucial to achieve the required HL-LHC parameters (bunch lengths, beam losses).

WEPTS049	Flat-Bottom Instabilities in the CERN SPS	3224
	M. Schwarz, K. Iliakis, A. Lasheen, G. Papotti, J. Repond, E.N. Shaposhnikova, H. Timko CERN, Meyrin, Switzerland
	At beam intensities of 2.6·10¹¹ protons per bunch, required at SPS injection for the High Luminosity LHC beam, longitudinal instabilities can degrade the beam quality delivered by the SPS, the LHC injector at CERN. In this paper, we concentrate on beam instability at flat bottom. The dependence of the instability threshold on longitudinal emittance and LLRF system settings was measured, to help identify the impedance driving this instability. While reducing the longitudinal emittance reduces the losses at injection, it can drive the beam unstable. The LLRF system of the SPS (partially) compensates beam loading, but also affects the instability. The effect of the different LLRF systems (feedback, feedforward, phase loop and longitudinal damper) and fourth harmonic RF system on the instability was investigated. The measurements are compared with simulations performed with the longitudinal tracking code BLonD.
