In high-energy particle accelerators, circulating particle beams with high intensity interact electromagnetically with their surroundings (i.e., metallic vacuum chambers of various geometries). These electromagnetic interactions, which are typically described through the concept of beam-coupling impedance, can represent a serious issue in terms of stability of the particle beam and heating on the accelerator structures.

Real time crystal collimation monitoring at the CERN Large Hadron Collider
/ Ricci, Gianmarco (Rome U. ; CERN) ; Mostacci, Andrea (Rome U. ; CERN) ; Mirarchi, Daniele (CERN) ; Matheson, Eloise (CERN) ; D'Andrea, Marco (CERN ; INFN, Legnaro) ; Di Castro, Mario (CERN) ; Cai, Rongrong (CERN) ; Redaelli, Stefano (CERN)
At the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), bent crystals play a crucial role in efficiently redirecting ion-beam halo particles toward secondary collimators used for absorption. This innovative method leverages millimeter-sized crystals to achieve deflection equivalent to a magnetic field of hundreds of Tesla at LHC’s highest energies. [...]

Machine learning based crystal collimator alignment optimization
/ Ricci, Gianmarco (CERN) ; D'Andrea, Marco (CERN) ; Di Castro, Mario (CERN) ; Matheson, Eloise (CERN) ; Mirarchi, Daniele (CERN) ; Mostacci, Andrea (CERN) ; Redaelli, Stefano (CERN)
In the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), bent crystals are used to efficiently deflect beam halo particles toward secondary collimators used as absorbers. In this crystal collimation scheme, a crystal with a length of a few millimeters can produce a deflection equivalent to a magnetic field of hundreds of Tesla at LHC top energies, improving the cleaning performance of the machine.

A Wireless Method for Beam Coupling Impedance Measurements of the LHC Goniometer
/ Antuono, Chiara (CERN ; U. Rome La Sapienza (main)) ; Migliorati, Mauro (U. Rome La Sapienza (main)) ; Mostacci, Andrea (U. Rome La Sapienza (main)) ; Zannini, Carlo (CERN)
The beam coupling impedance (BCI) of an accelerator component should be ideally evaluated exciting the device with the beam itself. However, this scenario is not always attainable and alternative methods must be exploited, such as the bench measurements techniques. [...]

Beam Coupling Impedance of the Main Extraction Kickers in the CERN PS

In view of the High Luminosity (HL) upgrade of the LHC, the beam intensity must be doubled in the injector chain. To perform reliable beam dynamics simulations, the beam coupling impedance in the injectors, such as the Proton Synchrotron (PS), must be followed closely by including all contributing elements into the impedance model.

A Wireless Method to Obtain the Impedance From Scattering Parameters
/ Antuono, Chiara (CERN) ; Migliorati, Mauro (Frascati) ; Mostacci, Andrea (Frascati) ; Métral, Elias (CERN) ; Zannini, Carlo (CERN)
The coaxial wire method is a common and appreciated choice to assess the beam coupling impedance of an accelerator element from scattering parameters. Nevertheless, the results obtained from wire measurements could be inaccurate due to the presence of the stretched conductive wire that artificially creates the conditions for the propagation of a Transverse ElectroMagnetic (TEM) mode.

CompactLight (XLS) is an International Collaboration of 24 partners and 5 third parties, funded by the European Union through the Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme. The main goal of the project, which started in January 2018 with a duration of 36 months, is the design of an hard X-ray FEL facility beyond today’s state of the art, using the latest concepts for bright electron photo-injectors, high-gradient accelerating structures, and innovative short-period undulators.
