Xsuite: an integrated beam physics simulation framework
/ Iadarola, Giovanni (CERN) ; Latina, Andrea (CERN) ; Abramov, Andrey (CERN) ; Montanari, Carlo Emilio (CERN) ; Droin, Colas (CERN) ; Di Croce, Davide (Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; Demetriadou, Despina (CERN) ; Soubelet, Felix (CERN) ; Van der Veken, Frederik (CERN) ; Sterbini, Guido (CERN) et al.
Xsuite is a modular simulation package bringing to a single flexible and modern framework capabilities of different tools developed at CERN in the past decades notably MAD-X Sixtrack Sixtracklib COMBI and PyHEADTAIL. The suite consists of a set of Python modules (Xobjects, Xpart, Xtrack, Xcoll, Xfields, Xdeps) that can be flexibly combined together and with other accelerator-specific and general-purpose python tools to study complex simulation scenarios.

LHC optics commissioning in 2023 and 2024
/ Persson, Tobias (CERN) ; Wegscheider, Andreas (CERN) ; Fol, Elena (CERN) ; Maclean, Ewen (CERN) ; Carlier, Felix (CERN) ; Soubelet, Felix (CERN) ; Trad, Georges (CERN) ; Keintzel, Jacqueline (CERN) ; Cardona, Javier (Columbia U.) ; Dilly, Joschua (CERN) et al.
The LHC machine configuration was changed in 2023 compared to previous years, requiring a new set of optics configurations to be measured and corrected. A telescopic optics was deployed in energy the ramp for the first time, which gave rise to a beta-beating of up to 25% [...]

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) employs special optics and configurations, alongside low-beta* collision optics, to address specific experimental requirements. These include calibrating luminosity monitors (vdM) and facilitating forward physics measurements in TOTEM and ALFA experiments (high-beta). [...]

Sextupole RDTs in the LHC at injection and in the ramp
/ Horney, S J (CERN ; Oxford U.) ; Maclean, E (CERN) ; Burrows, P (Oxford U.) ; Carlier, F (CERN) ; Dilly, J (CERN) ; Deniau, L (CERN) ; Ferrentino, V (CERN) ; Fol, E (CERN) ; Hofer, M (CERN) ; Keintzel, J (CERN) et al.
During 2023, examination of the action dependence of sextupolar resonance driving terms (RDT) in the LHC at injection, as measured with an AC-dipole, demonstrated that a robust measurement of the RDTs could still be achieved even with very small amplitude kicks, typically used for linear optics studies. Consequently, analysis of optics measurements from 2022 and 2023 during the LHC energy ramp allowed a first measurement of the sextupole resonance evolution. [...]

Chapter 28: Non-linear Optics Measurements and Corrections
/ Maclean, E H (CERN) ; Carlier, F (CERN) ; Dilly, J W (CERN) ; Giovannozzi, M (CERN) ; Karastathis, N ; Persson, T H B (CERN) ; Tomás, R (CERN)
Nonlinear optics errors in low-β* insertions pose a serious challenge to successful operation of the HL-LHC. LHC experience however has demonstrated that the previously assumed correction strategy, based upon ideal compensation of selected nonlinear resonances, as determined from magnetic measurements, suffers from several limitations.

Optics for Landau Damping with Minimized Octupolar Resonances in the LHC
/ Wenninger, J (CERN) ; Solfaroli, M (CERN) ; Nissinen, T (CERN) ; Hostettler, M (CERN) ; Horney, S (CERN) ; Chudoba, F (CERN) ; Tomás García, Rogelio (CERN) ; Carlier, Felix (CERN) ; Deniau, Laurent (CERN) ; Dilly, Joschua (CERN) et al.
Operation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) requires strong octupolar magnetic fields to suppress coherent beam instabilities. The amplitude detuning that is generated by these octupolar magnetic fields brings the tune of individual particles close to harmful resonances, which are mostly driven by the octupolar fields themselves. [...]
