Sextupole scheme optimization for HL–LHC / Plassard, Fabien ; De Maria, Riccardo (CERN) ; Giovannozzi, Massimo (CERN)
One essential upgrade of the High Luminosity LHC (HL–LHC) to reach the desired luminosity, is the large reduction of the β-function value at the interaction points (IP) hosting the high-luminosity experiments ATLAS and CMS. [...]

A methodology to compute the critical current limit in Nb$_3$Sn magnets / Vallone, G (LBNL, Berkeley) ; Anderssen, E (LBNL, Berkeley) ; Bordini, B (CERN) ; Ferracin, P (LBNL, Berkeley) ; Troitino, J F (CERN) ; Prestemon, S (LBNL, Berkeley)
Numerous experiments have shown that the loads applied to Nb$_3$Sn strands and cables can reduce their critical current. Experiments, performed on uniaxially loaded strands, allowed to define clear laws to describe the evolution of the critical surface as a function of the applied current, field, temperature and strain.

Chapter 13: Beam instrumentation and long-range beam–beam compensation / Jones, R (CERN) ; Bravin, Enrico (CERN) ; Lefevre, Thibault (CERN) ; Veness, Raymond (CERN)
The extensive array of beam instrumentation with which the LHC is equipped has played a major role in its commissioning, rapid intensity ramp-up and safe and reliable operation. Much of this equipment will need consolidation by the time the LHC enters the High-Luminosity (HL) era, while the upgrade itself brings a number of new challenges. The installation of a completely new final focus system in the two high-luminosity LHC insertions implies the development of new beam position monitors to equip the upgraded quadrupole magnets. [...]

Chapter 3: Insertion Magnets / Todesco, E (CERN) ; Ferracin, P (CERN)
In general, magnets will be tested individually in a vertical test station, and then horizontally in the final cold mass assembly within the final cryostat, with the exception of Q2 and D2 whose length does not allow vertical testing. Many power tests will be done in laboratories collaborating with CERN (BNL for vertical test of Q1/Q3, FNAL for horizontal test of Q1/Q3, KEK for vertical test of D1, LASA for vertical test of high order correctors, IMP (Lanzhou-China) for vertical test of D2 correctors, FREIA (Univ.

Chapter 4: RF systems / Calaga, R (CERN) ; Baudrenghien, P (CERN) ; Capatina, Ofelia (CERN) ; Jensen, Erk (CERN) ; Montesinos, Eric (CERN)
The HL-LHC beams are injected, accelerated, and stored to their nominal energy of 7 TeV by the existing 400 MHz superconducting RF system of the LHC. A novel superconducting RF system consisting of eight cavities per beam for transverse deflection (aka crab cavities) of the bunches will be used to compensate the geometric loss in luminosity due to the non-zero crossing angle and the extreme focusing of the bunches in the HL-LHC. Due to doubling of the beam currents in the HL-LHC era, an optimal detuning scheme (aka full- detuning) is required to cope with the transient beam loading effects. A modulation of the klystron and cavity phase make the phase of bunches with respect to the RF clock to progressively slip along the bunch train, but then recover during the abort gap. [...]

Chapter 5: Collimation system / Redaelli, Stefano (CERN) ; Bruce, Roderik (CERN) ; Lechner, Anton (CERN) ; Mereghetti, Alessio (CERN)
A variety of processes can cause unavoidable beam losses during normal and abnormal beam operation. Because of the high stored energy of about 700 MJ and the small transverse beam sizes, the HL-LHC beams are highly destructive. [...]

During LS2 and LS3, the HL-LHC upgrade will impose many changes to the magnet circuits of the LHC long- straight sections at points 1 and 5. The magnets will be installed in the machine during LS3. [...]

For the HL-LHC project, a novel concept for the cold powering of superconducting magnets has been developed. It is based on a new type of superconducting lines (hereafter referred to as Superconducting (SC) Links) that have been developed to transfer the current to the new HL-LHC insertion region magnets from remote distances.
