Chapter 12: Machine Protection in the High Luminosity LHC
/ Apollonio, A ; Bélanger, P (CERN) ; Carrillo, D (CERN) ; Denz, R (CERN) ; Mateos, F Rodriguez (CERN) ; Panev, B (CERN) ; Siemko, A (CERN) ; Uythoven, J (CERN) ; Verweij, A (CERN) ; Wollmann, D (CERN) et al.
In the high luminosity era of the LHC, the energy stored in the two beams will nearly double as compared with the design value of the current LHC and the beta functions will significantly increase in critical locations. In addition, novel equipment like Nb3Sn based superconducting magnets, crab cavities, hollow e-lenses and others will be installed. [...]

Data acquisition and supervision systems for the HL-LHC quench protection system - part I the hardware
/ Podzorny, Tomasz (CERN) ; Hollos, Adam (CERN) ; Skoczen, Andrzej (AGH-UST, Cracow) ; Garcia, G M (CERN) ; Spasic, Jelena (CERN) ; Steckert, Jens (CERN) ; Christensen, M B B (CERN) ; Galilée, Marc-Antoine (CERN) ; Moya, M M (CERN) ; Denz, Reiner (CERN) et al.
Protection of the superconducting circuits of the High Luminosity Upgrade of the LHC project (HL-LHC) will be ensured by a new generation of quench detection systems and various quench protection systems for the superconducting circuits and magnets.The HL-LHC quench detection systems serve as well as high-performance data acquisition systems, that also provide essential input for the automatic analysis of events such as a superconducting magnet quench.The supervision of the quench protection systems required the development of data acquisition and monitoring systems adapted to the specific characteristics of this equipment. Of particular importance are the protection device supervision units (PDSU), which are monitoring and interlocking the quench heater circuits and the Coupling Loss Induced Quench (CLIQ) systems.All data acquisition and monitoring systems use Ethernet-based communication with precise timing instead of a classic serial fieldbus solution.

Application of the Universal Quench Detection System to the Protection of the High-Luminosity LHC Magnets at CERN
/ Steckert, Jens (CERN) ; Denz, Reiner (CERN) ; Mundra, Surbhi (CERN) ; Podzorny, Tomasz (CERN) ; Spasic, Jelena (CERN) ; Vancea, Dragos-Gabriel (CERN)
The Universal Quench Detection System (UQDS) has been primarily developed to detect quenches in various superconducting magnets of LHC’s High Luminosity upgrade (HL-LHC). The functionality of the system, which comprises insulated high-resolution digitizing front-end channels and a central processing element, is mainly defined by the configuration of the central FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array).

The performance of the LHC magnet circuits for the proton physics run in 2017 is
evaluated. This contribution focuses on the availability of magnet powering (PC)
and protection systems (QPS, EE, FMCM and Interlocks) and evaluates the impact
of the new deployments, mainly the FGClite and RPADO power converters, on the
overall performance of the machine [...]
