Future Circular Lepton Collider Vibrational Crosstalk
/ Lersnimitthum, Purinut (Chulalongkorn U.) ; Piccini, Audrey (CERN) ; Carra, Federico (CERN) ; Boonyatee, Tirawat (Chulalongkorn U.) ; Wansophark, Niphon (Chulalongkorn U.) ; Ajavakom, Nopdanai (Chulalongkorn U.)
CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research is studying the feasibility of the Future Circular Collider, considering both financial and technical aspects. One of the challenges is that the performance of particle accelerators relies on the dynamic stability of structures, affected by multiple sources of vibrations, including crosstalk vibration between two particle accelerators, the Booster and Collider, in the Future Circular Lepton Collider.

Overview of beam intensity issues and mitigations in the CERN-SPS fast wire scanners
/ Veness, Raymond (CERN) ; Guerrero, Ana (CERN) ; Perez Fontenla, Ana Teresa (CERN) ; Harrison, Anthony (CERN) ; Salvant, Benoit (CERN) ; Zannini, Carlo (CERN) ; Antuono, Chiara (CERN) ; Vollinger, Christine (CERN) ; de la Fuente, Elena (CERN) ; Carra, Federico (CERN) et al.
A new design of fast wire scanner was installed in the CERN injector complex as part of the upgrades linked to the High-Luminosity LHC Project. Initial operations with these beams were good, but during the planned intensity ramp-up one early 2023, all four SPS scanners failed at the same time. [...]

Impedance and thermal studies of the CERN SPS wire scanners and mitigation of wire heating
/ de la Fuente, Elena (CERN) ; Papazoglou, I (CERN) ; Sito, Leonardo (CERN) ; Andreazza, William (CERN) ; Antuono, Chiara (CERN) ; Bruchon, N (CERN) ; Calaga, Rama (CERN) ; Carra, Federico (CERN) ; Emery, J (CERN) ; Harrison, Anthony (CERN) et al.
All wires of the four CERN SPS rotational wirescanners broke when increasing the beam intensity towards the target for the LHC Injector Upgrade in 2023. Impedance and thermal studies were immediately launched, with simulations and measurements indicating that beam induced heating from resonant modes on the thin wire could be sufficient to cause these breakages.

Simulated impact of the HL-LHC beam on a graphite target

In the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) era, the intensity of the circulating bunches will increase to 2.2e+11 protons per bunch, almost twice the nominal LHC value. Besides detailed studies of known and new failure cases for HL-LHC, it is also required to investigate failures beyond nominal design. [...]

Chapter 8: Collimation of HL-LHC Beams
/ Redaelli, S (CERN) ; Bertarelli, A (CERN) ; Bruce, R (CERN) ; Carra, F (CERN) ; Lechner, A (CERN) ; Mereghetti, A (INFN, Pavia) ; Rossi, A (CERN)
High-performance collimation systems are essential for operating modern hadron accelerators with large beam intensities efficiently and safely. In particular, at the LHC the collimation system ensures a clean disposal of beam halos in the superconducting environment. [...]

Collimation of 400 MJ Beams at the LHC: The First Step Towards the HL-LHC Era
/ Redaelli, Stefano (CERN) ; Abramov, Andrey (CERN) ; Baillard, Dylan (CERN) ; Bruce, Roderik (CERN) ; Cai, Rongrong (CERN ; Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; Carra, Federico (CERN) ; D'Andrea, Marco (CERN) ; Di Castro, Mario (CERN) ; Giacomel, Lorenzo (CERN) ; Hermes, Pascal (CERN) et al.
An important upgrade programme is planned for the collimation system of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in order to meet the challenges of the upcoming High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) project. A first stage of the HL-LHC upgrade was already deployed during the last LHC Long Shutdown, offering important improvements of the collimation cleaning, a significant reduction of the impedance contribution and better cleaning of collisional debris, in particular for ion-ion collisions.

Investigation of Dynamic Fracture Behavior of Graphite
/ Peroni, Lorenzo (Polytech. Turin) ; Scapin, Martina (Polytech. Turin) ; Carra, Federico (CERN) ; Mariani, Nicola (CERN)
The strain-rate sensitivity of brittle materials, such as glass, ceramics or concrete-like materials, is usually easier to be performed in compression. However, also the tensile behavior, which affects phenomena such as spalling, scabbing and fragmentation, has to be investigated to achieve an exhaustive characterization. [...]

In 2022, the FCC Feasibility Study management mandated aworking group to analyse the best configuration of the FCC-ee tunnelin the arc regions, in view of the construction of a mock-up of thearc half-cell. One of the main and most challenging goals of thestudy, named FCC-ee Arc Half-Cell Mock-up Project, was toperform a preliminary investigation on the principles of supportingthe Short-Straight Sections and dipoles of the half-cells, both forthe booster and for the collider machines.

FCC-ee arc half-cell: preliminary design & integration studies, with ideas for a mock-up
/ Carra, F (CERN) ; Baudin, L (CERN) ; Bauche, J (CERN) ; Artoos, K (CERN) ; Atieh, S (CERN) ; Bertarelli, A (CERN) ; Brunner, O (CERN) ; Capatina, O (CERN) ; Chance, A (Saclay) ; Chemli, S (CERN) et al.
During 2022, a dedicated study was undertaken at CERN, together with FCC Feasibility Study collaborators, aimed at proposing a robust configuration for the FCC-ee arc half cell. The proposed configuration takes into account integration aspects of the elements in the arc cross section, both for the booster and the collider, as well as aspects related to powering, cooling and ventilation, supporting and alignment, optics, instrumentation, handling and installation.
