Improvement of the LHC orbit feedback testing framework
/ Calia, Andrea (CERN) ; Alves, Diogo (CERN) ; Wenninger, Jorg (CERN) ; Hostettler, Michi (CERN) ; Jackson, Stephen (CERN)
During the Long Shutdown 2 (LS2 2019-2021) of the LHC, the orbit feedback correction software (OFB) of the LHC was redesigned to satisfy new requirements for LHC Run 3 (2022-2025) and to clean up legacy functionalities. The OFB is an essential component of LHC high intensity operation since the orbit must be stabilized to a fraction of the beam size during the entire LHC machine cycle. [...]

Study of the performance and beam loss limitations during injection of high-intensity LHC proton beams
/ Salvachua, Belen (CERN) ; Lechner, Anton (CERN) ; Bracco, Chiara (CERN) ; Zamantzas, Christos (CERN) ; Wollmann, Daniel (CERN) ; Mirarchi, Daniele (CERN) ; Effinger, Ewald (CERN) ; Velotti, Francesco (CERN) ; Trad, Georges (CERN) ; Wenninger, Jorg (CERN) et al.
The LHC Injectors Upgrade project at CERN optimized the injection accelerator chain to deliver proton intensities per bunch of 2.3e+11 ppb. Throughout 2023, the LHC was filled with up to 2464 bunches per beam using a hybrid injection scheme, involving up to 236 bunches per injection, with a maximum intensity per bunch of 1.6e+11 ppb.

Operation of the LHC during the 2023 proton run

In 2023 the LHC restarted after the yearly winter shutdown with a new machine configuration optimized for intensities of up to 1.8e+11 protons per bunch. In the first two months of the 2023 run the bunch intensities were pushed up to 1.6e+11 protons per bunch until a severe vacuum degradation, caused by a damaged RF bridge, occurred close to the ATLAS experiment.

Machine protection perspective on the restart of the large hadron collider after long shutdown 2
/ Wiesner, Christoph (CERN) ; Hernalsteens, Cédric (CERN) ; Solfaroli, Matteo (CERN) ; Wenninger, Jorg (CERN) ; Wollmann, Daniel (CERN) ; Uythoven, Jan (CERN)
In 2022, the Large Hadron Collider started its third operational run. Following the three-year Long Shutdown 2, a careful re-commissioning of the machine protection system (MPS) took place. [...]

Interlock Super Agent : Enhancing Machine Efficiency and Performance at CERN’s Super Proton Synchrotron
/ Veyrunes, Eric (CERN) ; Asko, Anti (CERN) ; Trad, Georges (CERN) ; Wenninger, Jorg (CERN)
In the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS), finding the source of an interlock signal has become increasingly unmanageable due to the complex interdependencies between the agents in both the beam interlock system (BIS) and the software interlock system (SIS). This often leads to delays, with the inefficiency in diagnosing beam stops impacting the overall performance of the accelerator. [...]

The status of the energy calibration, polarization and monochromatization of the FCC-ee
/ Bauche, Jeremie (CERN) ; Blondel, Alain (CERN) ; Ciarma, Andrea (Frascati) ; Faus-Golfe, Angeles (IJCLab, Orsay) ; Bogomyagkov, Anton (Novosibirsk, IYF) ; Martens, Aurélien (IJCLab, Orsay) ; Gaskell, David (Jefferson Lab) ; Sagan, David (Cornell U.) ; Barber, Desmond (New Mexico U.) ; Shatilov, Dmitry (CERN) et al.
The Future Circular electron-positron Collider, FCC- ee, is designed for unprecedented precision for particle physics experiments from the Z-pole up to above the top-pair-threshold, corresponding to a beam energy range from 45.6 to 182.5 GeV. Performing collisions at various particle-physics resonances requires precise knowledge of the centre-of-mass energy (ECM) and collision boosts at all four interaction points. [...]

/ Fartoukh, Stephane (CERN) ; Dilly, Joschua Werner (CERN) ; Hostettler, Michi (CERN) ; Iadarola, Giovanni (CERN) ; Jacquet, Delphine (CERN) ; Kostoglou, Sofia (CERN) ; Mirarchi, Daniele (CERN) ; Persson, Tobias Hakan Bjorn (CERN) ; Solfaroli Camillocci, Matteo (CERN) ; Sterbini, Guido (CERN) et al.
This note contains a condensed summary of the various beam tests which took place in 2022 in order to validate the machine configuration planned to be deployed for the 2023 proton run of the LHC, including in particular a combined ramp and anti-telescopic squeeze, the rotation of the external crossing angle in LHCb, and beam operation with up to 1.8 × 1011 p/b..
