Probing Nucleon Spin Structure with a Polarized Gamma Beam from Compton Backscattering at FCC-ee / Canbay, A C (Ankara U.) ; Sultansoy, S (TOBB ETU, Ankara) ; Zimmermann, F (CERN)
We present a kinematic and optical design of a high-energy polarized gamma-ray facility based on Compton backscattering of lasers against the FCC-ee electron beams in its $Z$, $WW$, $ZH$ and $t\bar{t}$ modes. [...]

Particle adhesion assessment based on a diverted use of laser shock adhesion test (LASAT) to apply inertia force relying on dynamics of the sample macroscopic surface / Baudin, Lucie (CERN) ; Garion, Cedric (CERN) ; Chiggiatto, Paolo ; Delloro, Francesco (Paris, Ecole des Mines) ; Jeandin, Michel (Paris, Ecole des Mines) ; Thorel, Alain (Paris, Ecole des Mines) ; Boustie, Michel (CNRS, France)
Laser-assisted surface structuring was developed at CERN for the treatment of the inside wall of the vacuum system of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). 50-µm-deep grooves were created by material ablation while the laser scanned the surface. [...]

Mixed Neutron and Gamma Effects on Optical Fibers and Coating Materials / Perrot, J (Jean Monnet U.) ; Ferrari, M (Jean Monnet U.) ; Bernardes, A (CERN) ; Morana, A (Jean Monnet U.) ; Avesani, M (Jean Monnet U.) ; Marin, E (Jean Monnet U.) ; Ouerdane, Y (Jean Monnet U.) ; Boukenter, A (Jean Monnet U.) ; Bertrand, J (ANDRA, Chatenay-Malabry) ; Crouvizier, M D (CERN) et al.
This work aims to characterize the vulnerability of radiation-hardened silica-based optical fibers to be implemented in mixed neutron/gamma fields and hydrogen-rich environments. We first investigated radiation effects at microscopic scale, including radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) in the Near- InfraRed (NIR) domain and neutron-induced Refractive Index Changes (RIC).

Beam driven plasma instabilities in electron beam ion sources / Thakur, Chandan (Nehru U.) ; Kumar, Sarvesh (Unlisted, IN) ; Jakhar, Niketan (Nehru U.) ; Kashyap, Sandeep (Amity U. ; Indian Inst. Tech., New Delhi) ; Sharma, Jyotsna (Unlisted, IN) ; Kashyap, Manish K (Nehru U.) ; Pahl, Hannes (CERN) ; Wenander, Fredrik (CERN)
Electron beam ion source (EBIS) is capable of generating highly charged ions by ionizing neutral gas atoms using a high-energy electron beam. The generated ions are confined axially and radially by electric and magnetic fields within the breeding region until they are extracted by lowering the axial potential barrier. [...]

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.
