In this paper we present detailed simulations with asymmetric initial beam settings in the context of the proposed Future Circular Collider e+e- (FCC-ee) using the Xsuite framework. We compare simulated equilibrium bunch sizes and luminosities against an already existing analytical model, which shows remarkably good agreement for realistic small perturbations. [...]

Mitigation Strategies for the Instabilities Induced by the Fundamental Mode of the HL-LHC Crab Cavities
/ Giacomel, Lorenzo (CERN) ; Baudrenghien, Philippe (CERN) ; Buffat, Xavier (CERN) ; Calaga, Rama (CERN) ; Mounet, Nicolas (CERN)
The transverse impedance is one of the potentially limiting effects for the performance of the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). In the current LHC, the impedance is dominated by the resistive-wall contribution of the collimators at typical bunch-spectrum frequencies, and is of broad-band nature. [...]

Assessment of the real part of the impedance of the LHC collimators with instability growth rate measurements
/ Giacomel, Lorenzo (CERN) ; Lindstrom, Bjorn (CERN ; Royal Holloway, U. of London) ; Iadarola, Giovanni (CERN) ; Rumolo, Giovanni (CERN) ; Mounet, Nicolas (CERN) ; Bruce, Roderik (CERN) ; Buffat, Xavier (CERN)
The impedance of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a source of instabilities and has to be monitored closely. It is usually assessed by measuring the tune-shift vs intensity, in particular at top energy where it is the most critical, as the collimators are the closest to the beam. [...]

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.

Emittance growth studies due to Crab Cavity induced amplitude noise in the SPS

In the context of the HL-LHC upgrade, RF Crab Cavities (CCs) are one of the key components to achieve the target integrated luminosity. Due to the increased bunch intensity, the collider will operate with a large crossing angle scheme to alleviate the long-range beam-beam effect. [...]

Multiturn simulation of radiative Bhabha scattering in the equivalent photon approximation
/ Kicsiny, Peter (CERN ; EPFL-ISIC, Lausanne) ; Buffat, Xavier (CERN) ; Schulte, Daniel (CERN) ; Burkhardt, Helmut (CERN) ; Pieloni, Tatiana (EPFL-ISIC, Lausanne) ; Seidel, Mike (EPFL-ISIC, Lausanne)
In this paper, we present a Monte Carlo event generator for radiative Bhabha scattering, based on the method of equivalent photons, and optimized for multiturn tracking simulations in the xsuite framework. We demonstrate the accuracy of the event generator with successful benchmarks of the luminosity and event cross section against currently existing alternative tools. [...]

Selected advances in the accelerator design of the Future Circular Electron-Positron Collider (FCC-ee)
/ FCC Collaboration
In autumn 2023, the FCC Feasibility Study underwent a crucial “mid-term review”. We describe some accelerator performance risks for the proposed future circular electron-positron collider, FCC-ee, identified for, and during, the mid-term review. [...]

Impact of multiple beam-beam encounters on LHC absolute-luminosity calibrations by the van der Meer method
/ Wanczyk, Joanna (CERN ; Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; Dabrowski, Anne (CERN) ; Stickland, David (CERN) ; Pieloni, Tatiana (Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne, LPAP) ; Kozanecki, Witold (IRFU, Saclay) ; Buffat, Xavier (CERN)
The LHC particle-physics program requires that the delivered luminosity be measured to an absolute accuracy in the 1% range. To this effect, the absolute luminosity scale at each interaction point (IP) is calibrated by scanning the beams across each other according to the van der Meer method. [...]

Mitigating Collimation Impedance and Improving Halo Cleaning with New Optics and Settings Strategy of the HL-LHC Betatron Collimation System
/ Lindström, Bjorn (CERN) ; Bruce, Roderik (CERN) ; Buffat, Xavier (CERN) ; De Maria, Riccardo (CERN) ; Giacomel, Lorenzo (CERN) ; Hermes, Pascal (CERN) ; Mirarchi, Daniele (CERN) ; Mounet, Nicolas (CERN) ; Persson, Tobias (CERN) ; Redaelli, Stefano (CERN) et al.
With High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) beam intensities, there are concerns that the beam losses in the dispersion suppressors around the betatron cleaning insertion might exceed the quench limits. Furthermore, to maximize the beam lifetime it is important to reduce the impedance as much as possible. [...]
