Improved CERN LHC layout and aperture models / Lampaki, Syrmatenia (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (GR))
Aperture models are of fundamental importance to design machine optics configurations and predict machine performance. They are also essential to detect design flaws during the engineering and construction phase, and essential to steer alignment campaigns and optimize operational scenarios. [...]

Simulations of incoherent effects driven by electron clouds forming in the inner triplets of the Large Hadron Collider / Paraschou, Konstantinos (CERN) ; Iadarola, Giovanni (CERN) ; Mether, Lotta (CERN)
During Run 2 and Run 3 of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), slow losses from electron cloud (e-cloud) effects have been systematically observed during the full duration of fills with closely-spaced proton bunches. In particular, these effects had been found to depend strongly on the crossing angle of the two beams and the value of the betatron functions in the interaction points. [...]

Report from LHC MD 6863: Amplitude Detuning Corrections from Feed-Down / Dilly, Joschua Werner (CERN) ; Le Garrec, Mael (Goethe University Frankfurt (DE)) ; Maclean, Ewen Hamish (CERN) ; Van Riesen-Haupt, Leon (EPFL - Ecole Polytechnique Federale Lausanne (CH)) ; Tomas Garcia, Rogelio (CERN)
Report of the MD6863 performed on the 24th and 25th of June 2022 to establish new corrections for the dodecapole correctors in LHC IP1 and IP5 to mitigate feed-down effects of high-order errors to amplitude detuning. [...]

Benchmarking power deposition from fast losses of heavy-ion beams at the onset of LHC Run 3 / Rodin, Volodymyr (CERN) ; Lechner, Anton (CERN) ; Salvachua, Belen (CERN) ; Mirarchi, Daniele (CERN) ; Esposito, Luigi Salvatore (CERN) ; D'Andrea, Marco (CERN) ; Schoofs, Philippe (CERN) ; Bruce, Roderik (CERN) ; Cai, Rongrong (CERN) ; Morales Vigo, Sara (CERN) et al.
In 2023, the LHC started its Run 3 operation with $^{208}\text{PB}^{82+}$ beams at 6.8 ZTeV, with a substantially higher number of bunches compared to past runs. Several new hardware systems were used operationally for the first time with high-intensity beams, including bent crystal collimators in the betatron cleaning insertion. [...]

LHC abort gap monitor electronics upgrade / Pacner, Petr (CERN) ; Belohrad, David (CERN) ; Martin Nieto, Miguel (CERN) ; Mazzoni, Stefano (CERN) ; Bart Pedersen, Stephane (CERN)
The LHC Abort Gap Monitor (AGM) is part of the LHC machine protection system (MPS) and is designed to measure the particle population in a 3µs wide region known as the "abort gap." This region needs to be kept empty to ensure safe beam dumps. The AGM captures the synchrotron light generated in the visible part of the spectra and converts it into an electric signal. [...]

Assessment of the real part of the impedance of the LHC collimators with instability growth rate measurements / Giacomel, Lorenzo (CERN) ; Lindstrom, Bjorn (CERN ; Royal Holloway, U. of London) ; Iadarola, Giovanni (CERN) ; Rumolo, Giovanni (CERN) ; Mounet, Nicolas (CERN) ; Bruce, Roderik (CERN) ; Buffat, Xavier (CERN)
The impedance of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a source of instabilities and has to be monitored closely. It is usually assessed by measuring the tune-shift vs intensity, in particular at top energy where it is the most critical, as the collimators are the closest to the beam. [...]

Real time crystal collimation monitoring at the CERN Large Hadron Collider / Ricci, Gianmarco (Rome U. ; CERN) ; Mostacci, Andrea (Rome U. ; CERN) ; Mirarchi, Daniele (CERN) ; Matheson, Eloise (CERN) ; D'Andrea, Marco (CERN ; INFN, Legnaro) ; Di Castro, Mario (CERN) ; Cai, Rongrong (CERN) ; Redaelli, Stefano (CERN)
At the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), bent crystals play a crucial role in efficiently redirecting ion-beam halo particles toward secondary collimators used for absorption. This innovative method leverages millimeter-sized crystals to achieve deflection equivalent to a magnetic field of hundreds of Tesla at LHC’s highest energies. [...]

Emittance and luminosity monitoring and modelling for LHC Run 3 / Efthymiopoulos, Ilias (CERN) ; Sterbini, Guido (CERN) ; Bartosik, Hannes (CERN) ; Kostoglou, Sofia (CERN)
A comprehensive model accurately depicts and tracks emittance and luminosity evolution in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), considering known effects like IBS, synchrotron radiation damping, coupling and incorporating data-driven factors on emittance growth and intensity losses. Used extensively in LHC Run 2, the model is updated for compatibility with new optics and operational schemes in Run 3, featuring luminosity leveling. [...]

Initial operational experience of an LHC injection kicker magnet upgraded for HL-LHC / Barnes, Michael (CERN) ; Diaz Zumel, Miguel (CERN) ; Bracco, Chiara (CERN) ; Standen, Dylan (CERN) ; Favia, Giorgia (CERN) ; Ducimetière, Laurent (CERN) ; Trubacova, Pavlina (CERN) ; Kramer, Thomas (CERN) ; Stadlbauer, Tobias (CERN) ; Gomes Namora, Vasco (CERN)
The intensity of the HL-LHC beam will be twice that of LHC. Hence, an upgrade of the LHC injection kickers (MKIs) is necessary for HL-LHC to avoid excessive beam induced heating of the MKIs. [...]

Understanding of the LHC warm vacuum module heating / Krkotic, Patrick (CERN) ; Baglin, Vincent (CERN) ; Chiggiato, Paolo (CERN) ; Papaphilippou, Yannis (CERN) ; Rumolo, Giovanni (CERN) ; Antuono, Chiara (CERN ; Rome U.) ; Bregliozzi, Giuseppe (CERN) ; Calatroni, Sergio (CERN) ; de la Fuente, Elena (CERN ; Madrid, Polytechnic U.) ; Galloro, Alessio (Calabria U. ; CERN) et al.
During the third run of the Large Hadron Collider in 2023, which had the highest intensity bunch population compared to previous runs, increased losses attributed to pressure spikes within a warm vacuum sector triggered a beam dump. Subsequent inspections revealed localised annealing and plasticisation of the tension spring in the sliding contact radio-frequency finger module, alongside traces of vapour deposition on the various module components with the stainless-steel spring material.
