First Experience with the LHC Beam Loss Monitoring System / Böhlen, T (CERN) ; Dehning, B (CERN) ; Effinger, E (CERN) ; Emery, J (CERN) ; Follin, F (CERN) ; Holzer, E (CERN) ; Jackson, S (CERN) ; Kramer, Daniel (CERN) ; Kruk, G (CERN) ; Le Roux, P (CERN) et al.
The LHC beam loss monitoring system (BLM) consists of about 4000 monitors observing losses at all quadrupole magnets and many other likely loss locations. At the first LHC operation in August and September 2008 all monitors were active and used to observe the losses during the initial beam steerings, at collimators, at the LHC dump and during aperture scans.

On the Continuous Measurement of the LHC Beta-Function - Prototype Studies at the SPS / Boccardi, A (CERN) ; Calvo Giraldo, E (CERN) ; Gasior, M (CERN) ; González, J L (CERN) ; Jones, O R (CERN) ; Steinhagen, R J (CERN)
Until now, the continuous monitoring of the LHC lattice has been considered impractical due to tight constraints on the maximum allowed beam excitations and acquisition time usually required for betatron function measurements. As a further exploitation of the Base-Band-Tune (BBQ) detection principle, already widely used for tune diagnostics, a real-time beta-beat measurement prototype has been successfully tested at the CERN SPS and is based on the continuous measurement of the cell-to-cell betatron phase advance. [...]

Operational Experience with a LHC Collimator Prototype in the CERN SPS / Redaelli, S (CERN) ; Aberle, O (CERN) ; Assmann, R (CERN) ; Dehning, B (CERN) ; Bracco, C (CERN) ; Jonker, M (CERN) ; Masi, A (CERN) ; Losito, R (CERN) ; Sapinski, M (CERN) ; Weiler, T (CERN) et al.
A full-scale prototype of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) collimator was installed in 2004 in the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) and has been extensively used for beam tests, for control tests and also LHC simulation benchmarking during four years of operation. This operational experience has been extremely valuable in view of the final LHC implementation as well as for estimating the LHC operational scenarios, most notably to establish procedures for the beam-based alignment of the collimators with respect to the circulating beam.

First reference measurements of the longitudinal impedance were made with beam in the SPS machine in 1999 to quantify the results of the impedance reduction programme, completed in 2001. The 2001 data showed that the low-frequency inductive impedance had been reduced by a factor 2.5 and that bunch lengthening due to the microwave instability was absent up to the ultimate LHC bunch intensity.

Since 1999 the PS has been operated without active transverse damping thanks to an increase of the coupling between the transverse planes and the reduction of injection steering errors. Although the LHC requirements are met by these means, a new transverse feedback system has been commissioned to reinforce the robustness of operation and avoid the blow-up generated by residual injection steering errors.

A Novel Technique for Mitigating Multipactor by Means of Magnetic Surface Roughness / Caspers, Friedhelm (CERN) ; Montesinos, E (CERN) ; Boria, V E (DCOM iTEAMUPV) ; Bruns, W (WBFB) ; Galan, L (UAM) ; Gimeno, B (UVEG) ; Montero, I (CSIC) ; Raboso, D (ESA ESTEC) ; Vicente, C (aurorasat)
Multipactor phenomena which are closely linked to the SEY (secondary electron yield)can be mitigated by many different methods including groves in the metal surface as well as using electric or magnetic bias fields. However frequently the application of global magnetic or electric bias field is not practicable considering the weight and power limitations on-board satellites. [...]

Comparison of Enamel and Stainless Steel Electron Cloud Clearing Electrodes Tested in the CERN Proton Synchrotron / Caspers, Friedhelm (CERN) ; Kroyer, K (Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems) ; Mahner, C (CERN) ; Wendel, JC (Wendel GmbH)
During the 2007 run with the nominal LHC proton beam, electron cloud has been clearly identified and characterized in the PS using a dedicated setup with shielded button-type pickups. Efficient electron cloud suppression could be achieved with a stainless steel stripline-type electrode biased to negative and positive voltages up to ± 1 kV. [...]
