Low Density Wires for Beam Halo Monitoring
/ Aliana-Cervera, Gerard (CERN) ; Pasquino, Chiara (CERN) ; Veness, Raymond (CERN) ; Lunt, Alexander (Bath U.) ; Mattia, Davide (Bath U.)
Beam Halo Monitoring (BHM) is essential for high-intensity accelerators like the HL-LHC. Carbon Nanotube (CNT) wires offer a promising alternative to traditional carbon fibre scanners due to their lower density, improved thermal properties, and reduced beam interaction. [...]

Mechanical Design of the Beam Gas Ionisation (BGI) Beam Profile Monitor for CERN Super Proton Synchrotron
/ Ramos Garcia, Maria Teresa (CERN) ; Andreazza, William (CERN) ; Bestmann, Patrick (CERN) ; Bursali, Hikmet (CERN) ; Chritin, Nicolas (CERN) ; Devauchelle, Wilfried (CERN) ; Harrison, Anthony (CERN) ; Khatri, Ghanshyambhai (CERN) ; McLean, Mark (CERN) ; Pasquino, Chiara (CERN) et al.
The Beam Gas Ionisation (BGI) instrument of the Proton Synchrotron (PS), presently installed and operational, has been re-designed for the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS), the following machine along the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) injector chain at CERN accelerator complex. Using the same detection technology, Timepix3, the SPS-BGI infers the beam profile from the electrons created by the ionisation of rest gas molecules and accelerated onto an imaging detector. [...]
