Abstract | The SPS transverse impedance model, which includes the major impedance contributions in the machine, can be benchmarked through measurements of the Head-Tail mode zero instability. Since the SPS works above transition energy, the head tail mode zero is unstable for negative values of chromaticity. The measured instability growth rate is proportional to the real part of the transverse impedance. Studies performed after the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) showed a relevant impedance around 2 GHz with high-gamma transition optics (Q26). This paper presents the follow-up studies to probe the behavior of this beam coupling impedance contribution. |
