Correctability of Measured Quadrupole Errors in the New Separation Dipoles on the HL-LHC Optics with a Local Skew Quadrupole Corrector / Dilly, Joschua Werner ; Maclean, Ewen Hamish (CERN) ; Tomas Garcia, Rogelio (CERN)
In this study the correctability of the skew quadrupole field errors, as measured in one of the fabricated separation dipoles for the low-beta* insertion regions of the HL-LHC, by means of a locally installed skew quadrupole magnet is evaluated. [...]

antiProtonic Atom X-ray (PAX) spectroscopy is an experiment that aims to test strong-field quantum electrodynamics (QED) effects by performing high-precision X-ray spectroscopy of antiprotonic atoms. PAX will use a low-energy antiproton beam provided by the Extra Low ENergy Antiproton (ELENA) ring at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) to create antiprotonic atoms. [...]

III.6 — Beam coupling impedance measurements with beam and on a bench / Biancacci, Nicolò (CERN)
The beam coupling impedance is one of the key quantities describing the interaction between aparticle beam travelling in a particle accelerator and its surroundings. Under specific circumstances,the impedance can lead to severe beam instabilities which limit the overall performance of a runningaccelerator or pose challenges for the achievement of a project.In this contribution, we present the main techniques in use to characterize the impedance either withbeam-based procedures, or with RF measurements on a test bench.

Terahertz and Optical Acceleration Techniques / Kärtner, Franz X (DESY ; CFEL, Hamburg)
The use of terahertz (THz) and optical radiation for electron acceleration and manipulation of electron bunches has progressed over the last decade to a level where practical devices for THz guns, THz and optical acceleration modules and a wide range of beam manipulations have become possible.

Transverse beam profile monitoring in high-radiation areas is challenging due to camera degradation. A proposed solution employs a multimode fiber (MMF) to relay optical signals from the radiation zone to a shielded area, where a standard CMOS camera can operate safely. [...]
