Measurement of Resonance driving terms in the ATF Damping Ring / Tomás, R (CERN) ; Kubo, K (KEK Japan) ; Kuroda, S (KEK Japan) ; Naito, T (KEK Japan) ; Okugi, T (KEK Japan) ; Urakawa, J (KEK Japan) ; Zimmermann, F (CERN)
The measurement of resonance driving terms in the Damping Ring of the Accelerator Test Facility in KEK could help finding possible machine imperfections and even to optimize single particle stability through the minimization of non-linearities. The first experimental attempts of this enterprise are reported in this note..

CERN SPS Impedance in 2007 / Métral, E (CERN) ; Arduini, Gianluigi (CERN) ; Bohl, T (CERN) ; Burkhardt, H (CERN) ; Calaga, R (BNL Upton NY USA) ; Caspers, Friedhelm (CERN) ; Damerau, H (CERN) ; Kroyer, T (CERN) ; Medina, H (CERN) ; Rumolo, G (CERN) et al.
Each year several measurements of the beam coupling impedance are performed in both longitudinal and transverse planes of the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron to keep track of its evolution. In parallel, after the extensive and successful campaign of identification, classification and cure of the possible sources of (mainly longitudinal) impedance between 1998 and 2001, a new campaign (essentially for the transverse impedance this time) has started few years ago, in view of the operation of the SPS with higher intensity for the LHC luminosity upgrade.

Beam Losses and Collimation Considerations for PS2 / Barranco, J (CERN) ; Bartmann, W (CERN) ; Benedikt, M (CERN) ; Papaphilippou, Y (CERN)
The high intensity beams with different emittances foreseen to be delivered by the PS2, an upgraded version of the actual CERN Proton Synchrotron, require strict control of beam losses in order to protect the machine components and enable their hands-on maintenance. Beam loss simulations based on dedicated numerical tools are undertaken for a variety of PS2 beams and for different loss mechanisms, along the whole accelerating cycle. [...]

Alignment of the CLIC BDS / Latina, A (CERN) ; Schulte, D (CERN) ; Tomás, R (CERN)
Aligning the CLIC Beam Delivery System faces two major challenges, the tight tolerances for the emittance preservation and its strong non-linear beam dynamics. For these reasons conventional beam-based alignment techniques, like dispersion free steering, are only partially successful and need to be followed by optimization algorithms based on other observables, like beam sizes..

Transverse Mode-Coupling Instability in the CERN SPS : Comparing Moses Analytical Calculations and Headtail Simulations with experiments in the SPS / Salvant, B (EPFL-LPHE, Lausanne) ; Arduini, Gianluigi (CERN) ; Calaga, R (Brookhaven) ; Jones, R (CERN) ; Métral, E (CERN) ; Papotti, G (CERN) ; Rumolo, G (CERN) ; Steinhagen, R (CERN) ; Tomás, R (CERN)
Since 2003, single bunches of protons with high intensity (1.2e11 protons) and low longitudinal emittance (0.2 eVs) have been observed to suffer from heavy losses in less than one synchrotron period after injection at 26 GeV/c in the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) when the vertical chromaticity is corrected. Understanding the mechanisms underlying this instability is crucial to assess the feasibility of an anticipated upgrade of the SPS, which requires bunches of 4e11 protons. [...]

The electron cloud instability limits the performance of many existing proton and positron rings. A simulation study carried out with the HEADTAIL code revealed that the threshold for its onset decreases with increasing beam energy, if the 6D emittance of the bunch is kept constant and the longitudinal matching to the bucket is preserved.

Adiabaticity and Reversibility Studies for Beam Splitting using Stable Resonances / Franchi, A (CERN) ; Gilardoni, S (CERN) ; Giovannozzi, M (CERN)
At the CERN Proton Synchrotron, a series of beam experiments proved beam splitting by crossing the one-fourth resonance. Depending on the speed at which the horizontal resonance is crossed, the splitting process is more or less adiabatic, and a different fraction of the initial beam is trapped in the islands. [...]

Study of losses during Continuous Transfer Extraction at CERN Proton Synchrotron / Barranco, J (CERN) ; Gilardoni, S (CERN)
The proton beams used for the fixed target physics at the SPS are extracted from the PS at 14 GeV/c in five turns, using a technique called Continuous Transfer (CT). During this extraction, large losses are observed in straight sections were the machine aperture should be large enough to accommodate the circulating beam without any loss. [...]

Parameter Scan for the CLIC Damping Rings / Papaphilippou, Y (CERN) ; Braun, H H (CERN) ; Korostelev, M (Cockroft Inst.)
Triggered by the RF frequency reduction of the CLIC main linac cavities, the damping ring parameters had to be reevaluated and the rings performance adapted to the new luminosity requirements. In view of a staged approach for reaching the ultimate energy of the collider, the dependence of the rings output emittances under the influence of Intrabeam Scattering is evaluated with respect to different beam characteristics such as bunch population, beam energy, coupling and longitudinal beam characteristics..

Collective Effects in the CLIC Damping Rings / Rumolo, G (CERN) ; Jeanneret, J B (CERN) ; Papaphilippou, Y (CERN) ; Quatraro, D (CERN)
Possible performance limitations coming fromcollective effects in the CLIC damping rings are the subject of this paper. In particular, the consequences of space charge, due to the very high beam brilliance, and of the resistive wall impedance, due to the locally very small beam pipe, are considered potentially dangerous in spite of the high beam energy.

Fast Ion Instability in the CLIC Transfer Line and Main LINAC / Rumolo, G (CERN) ; Schulte, D (CERN)
The Fast Ion Instability is believed to be a serious danger for bunch trains propagating in the CLIC electron transfer line and main linac, since it may strongly affect the bunches in the tail of the train if the vacuum pressure is not below a certain threshold. We have developed the FASTION code, which can track electrons through a FODO cell line and takes into account their interactions with the produced (and possibly trapped) ions. [...]

The LHeC aims at the generation of hadron-lepton collisions with center of mass energies in the TeV scale and luminosities of the order of $10^{32}-10^{33} cm^{-2} sec^{-1}$ by taking advantage of the existing LHC 7 TeV proton ring and adding a high energy electron accelerator. This paper presents technical considerations and potential parameter choices for such a machine and outlines some of the challenges arising when an electron storage ring based option, constructed within the existing infrastructure of the LHC, is chosen..

Digital Generation of Noise-Signals with Arbitrary Constant or Time-Varying Spectra / Tückmantel, Joachim (CERN)
Noise sources in the RF system of an accelerator produce longitudinal emittance increase or particle loss. This noise is inherent, from the beam-control system electronics, external sources or high power components, or can be purposely injected for a specific need such as bunch distribution modification or controlled emittance increase.

Electron Cloud Mitigation by Fast Bunch Compression in the CERN PS / Damerau, H (CERN) ; Hancock, S (CERN) ; Kroyer, T (CERN) ; Mahner, E (CERN) ; Schokker, M (CERN)
A fast transverse instability has been observed with nominal LHC beams in the CERN Proton Synchrotron (PS) in 2006. The instability develops within less than 1 ms, starting when the bunch length decreases below a threshold of 11.5 ns during the RF procedure to shorten the bunches immediately prior to extraction.

CLIC RF High Power Production Testing Program / Syratchev, I (CERN) ; Riddone, G (CERN) ; Tantawi, S (SLAC)
The CLIC Power Extraction and Transfer Structure (PETS) is a passive microwave device in which bunches of the drive beam interact with the impedance of the periodically loaded waveguide and generate RF power for the main linac accelerating structure. The demands on the high power production (~ 150 MW) and the needs to transport the 100 A drive beam for about 1 km without losses, makes the PETS design rather unique and the operation very challenging.

High Bandwidth Wall Current Monitor for CTF3 / D'Elia, A (CERN) ; Fandos, R (CERN) ; Søby, L (CERN)
Wall Current Monitors (WCM) are commonly used to observe the time profile and spectra of a particle beam by detecting its image current. Within the framework of the EUROTeV Programme, a WCM for CLIC and ILC having a very large bandwidth (100kHz-20GHz) is required and has been developed. [...]
