Thresholds of longitudinal multi-bunch instabilities in double harmonic RF systems / Heine, Ruben (CERN ; Berlin, Tech. U.) ; Karpov, Ivan (CERN) ; Keusgen, Wilhelm (Berlin, Tech. U.) ; Intelisano, Leandro (CERN) ; Calaga, Rama (CERN) ; Papotti, Giulia (CERN) ; Flowerdew, Jake (CERN)
Multi-bunch instabilities, often driven by narrowband impedance sources such as higher-order modes, present significant intensity limitations in synchrotrons. One approach to mitigate these instabilities is applying a double harmonic radio frequency (RF) system, which can increase the intensity threshold by enlarging the synchrotron frequency spread. [...]

A novel approach to qualify the straightness of electrostatic septa for the SPS slow extraction / Lackner, Friedrich (CERN) ; Prost, Antoine (CERN) ; Balhan, Bruno (CERN) ; Durieux, Camille (CERN ; Unlisted, FR) ; Boucly, Christophe (CERN) ; Monier, Colin (CERN) ; Vincke, Helmut (CERN) ; Ducimetière, Laurent (CERN) ; Fraser, Matthew (CERN) ; van den Kieboom, Reyn (Unlisted, NL ; CERN)
The quality of slow extraction from the SPS (Super ProtonSynchrotron) to the North Area is critically influenced bythe straightness tolerance of the electrostatic septum. Pastobservations have identified a degradation of the anode bodystraightness, resulting in an increased beam loss during ex-traction. [...]

Status of the low-Z SPS slow extraction electrostatic septum development / Lackner, Friedrich (CERN) ; Prost, Antoine (CERN) ; Balhan, Bruno (CERN) ; Vincke, Helmut (CERN) ; Ducimetière, Laurent (CERN) ; Fraser, Matthew (CERN) ; Bestmann, Patrick (CERN) ; van den Kiebooom, Reyn (Unlisted, NL ; CERN)
The impact of high-flux protons on beam loss during slow extraction from the SPS to the North Area has been discussed, and improvements have been proposed focusing on reducing activation, lifetime reduction, and anode body distortion. The conducted studies shall demonstrate the feasibility of replacing the stainless-steel tank, flanges, and anode body with low-Z materials. [...]

Cavity loops Influence on the single-bunch Instability thresholds of the CERN PS Booster / Marchi, Mariangela (CERN ; U. Rome La Sapienza (main)) ; Barrientos, Diego (CERN) ; Gnemmi, Giulia (CERN) ; Albright, Simon (CERN)
The CERN Proton Synchrotron Booster (PSB) delivers a wide variety of high-intensity and high-brightness proton beams to several destinations, including operations at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and various fixed-target experiments. Following the Long Shutdown 2 (LS2) upgrades, discrepancies between beam measurements and macro-particle simulations were observed, highlighting the need for a deeper understanding of the longitudinal impedance and related effects in the PSB.
