Beam-based aperture measurements with movable collimator jaws as performance booster of the CERN Large Hadron Collider
N. Fuster-Martínez, R. W. Aßmann, R. Bruce +6
The beam aperture of a particle accelerator defines the clearance available for the circulating beams and is a parameter of paramount importance for the accelerator performance. At…
Simulations of heavy-ion halo collimation at the CERN Large Hadron Collider: benchmark with measurements and cleaning performance evaluation
N. Fuster-Martínez
Protons and heavy-ion beams at unprecedented energies are brought into collisions in the CERN Large Hadron Collider for high-energy experiments. The LHC multi-stage collimation sys…
Transverse Beam Stability with Low-Impedance Collimators in the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider: Status and Challenges
S. A. Antipov, D. Amorim, N. Biancacci +5
The High-Luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) will double its beam intensity for the needs of High Energy Physics frontier. In order to ensure coherent stabilit…
Dynamic simulations in SixTrack
K. Sjobak, V. K. Berglyd Olsen, R. De Maria +6
The DYNK module allows element settings in SixTrack to be changed on a turn-by-turn basis. This document contains a technical description of the DYNK module in SixTrack. It is main…
