SPS injection kicker system: 2023 operational experience and upgrade proposals for high-luminosity LHC
/ Favia, Giorgia (CERN) ; Zannini, Carlo (CERN) ; Standen, Dylan (CERN) ; Velotti, Francesco (CERN) ; Ducimetière, Laurent (CERN) ; Feliciano, Luis (CERN) ; Barnes, Michael (CERN) ; Diaz Zumel, Miguel (CERN) ; Trubacova, Pavlina (CERN) ; Kramer, Thomas (CERN) et al.
The SPS injection kicker system comprises twelve MKP-S (small aperture) modules and four MKP-L (large aperture) modules. An upgraded MKP-L magnet was installed in the SPS, during December 2022, in view of the higher beam intensity needed in the future for High-Luminosity-LHC. [...]

Operational experience of a low beam coupling impedance injection kicker magnet for the CERN SPS ring
/ Barnes, M J (CERN) ; Bartmann, W (CERN) ; Díaz, M (CERN) ; Ducimetière, L (CERN) ; Favia, G (CERN) ; Feliciano, L (CERN) ; Kramer, T (CERN) ; Namora, V (CERN) ; Standen, D (CERN) ; Stadlbauer, T (CERN) et al.
The CERN SPS injection kicker magnets (MKP) were developed in the 1970's, before beam power deposition was considered an issue. There are two types of these magnets in the SPS: MKP-S (small aperture) and MKP-L (large aperture) versions. [...]

Mitigation of High Voltage Breakdown of the Beam Screen of a CERN SPS Injection Kicker Magnet
/ Barnes, Michael (CERN) ; Bartmann, Wolfgang (CERN) ; Díaz Zumel, Miguel (CERN) ; Ducimetière, Laurent (CERN) ; Feliciano, Luis (CERN) ; Kramer, Thomas (CERN) ; Namora, Vasco (CERN) ; Stadlbauer, Tobias (CERN) ; Standen, Dylan (CERN) ; Trubacova, Pavlina (CERN) et al.
The SPS injection kicker magnets (MKP) were developed in the 1970’s, before beam induced power deposition was considered an issue. These magnets are very lossy from a beam impedance perspective: this is expected to be an issue during SPS operation with the higher intensity beams needed for HL-LHC. [...]

Machine development studies for PSB extraction at 160 MeV and PSB to PS beam transfer
/ Forte, V (CERN) ; Albright, S (CERN) ; Bartmann, W (CERN) ; Borburgh, J (CERN) ; Ferrero Colomo, A (CERN) ; Damerau, H (CERN) ; Di Giovanni, G P (CERN) ; Coralejo Feliciano, L M (CERN) ; Fraser, M A (CERN) ; Gamba, D (CERN) et al.
This paper collects the machine development (MD) activities for the beam transfer studies in 2016 concerning the PSB extraction and the PSB-to-PS transfer. Many topics are covered: from the 160 MeV extraction from the PSB, useful for the future commissioning activities after the connection with Linac4, to new methodologies for measuring the magnetic waveforms of kickers and dispersion reduction schemes at PS injection, which are of great interest for the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) [1] project..

Beam-Based Waveform Measurements of the CERN PS Injection Kicker

In the framework of the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) project, a beam-based technique has been developed for measuring the waveform the CERN Proton Synchrotron (PS) horizontal injection kicker, named KFA45. The technique avoids the need for tedious magnetic measurements, especially when a spare magnet is presently unavailable and measuring the operational magnet with a magnetic field probe is complicated by integration reasons.
