  For a two-stage collimation system, the betatron phase advance between the primary and secondary stages is usually set to maximise the absorption of secondary particles outscattered from the primary. Another constraint is the contribution to the ring impedance of the collimation system, which can be decreased through an optimized insertion optics, featuring large values of the beta functions. In this article we report on first studies of such an optics for the CERN LHC. In addition to a gain in impedance, we show that the cleaning efficiency can be improved thanks to the large beta functions, even though the phase advance is not set at the theoretical optimum.

  The High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) will require stringent optics correction to operate safely and deliver the design luminosity to the experiments. In order to achieve this, several new methods for optics correction have been developed. In this article, we outline some of these methods and we describe the envisioned strategy of how to use them in order to reach the challenging requirements of the HL-LHC physics program.

  The Run 3 of the LHC will continue to provide new challenges for optics corrections. In order to succeed and go beyond what was achieved previously, several new methods to measure and correct the optics have been developed. In this article we describe these methods and outline the plans for the optics commissioning in 2022.

  SixTrackLib is a library for performing beam-dynamics simulations on highly parallel computing devices such as shared memory multi-core processors or graphical processing units (GPUs). Its single-particle approach fits very well with parallel implementations with reasonable baseline performance, making such a library an interesting building block for various use cases, including simulations covering collective effects. We describe optimizations to improve their performance on SixTrackLib’s main target platforms and the associated performance gains. Finally, we outline the implemented technical interfaces and extensions that allow SixTrackLib to be used in a wider range of applications and studies.
