Improvements of the SPS slow extraction electrostatic septum
/ Lackner, Friedrich (CERN) ; Prost, Antoine (CERN) ; Balhan, Bruno (CERN) ; Pirozzi, Fabrizio (CERN) ; Vincke, Helmut (CERN) ; Borburgh, Jan (CERN) ; Kawa, Krzysztof (CERN ; AGH-UST, Cracow) ; Jorat, Louise Olivia (CERN) ; Fraser, Matthew (CERN) ; Roudaut, Noah (CERN ; UTBM, Belfort)
The impact of high-flux protons on the inherent beam loss in the slow extraction straight from SPS towards the North Area has been recently discussed and potential improvements have been proposed. These solutions are mainly aiming to reduce the high component activation and related reduction of lifetime, as well as observed non-straightness in the anode body. [...]

Optimization of mechanical robustness in the booster injection bumpers
/ Lackner, Friedrich (CERN) ; Atanasov, Miroslav (CERN) ; Balhan, Bruno (CERN) ; Baud, Cedric (CERN) ; Borburgh, Jan (CERN) ; M Walraven (Inholland U. Appl. Sci., Alkmaar)
During the Long Shutdown 2 (LS2) at CERN, the new Linac4 (L4) accelerator has been successfully connected to the PS Booster (PSB) to inject 160 MeV H− beam into the 4 superposed PSB rings. The horizontal displacement of the circulating beam during injection relies on 4 pulsed dipole magnets. [...]

FCC-ee $e^+e^-$ Injection and Booster rRng
/ Ramjiawan, Rebecca (CERN) ; Barnes, Michael (CERN) ; Bartmann, Wolfgang (CERN) ; Borburgh, Jan (CERN) ; Chancé, Antoine (Saclay) ; Dalena, Barbara (IRFU, Saclay) ; Dutheil, Yann (CERN) ; Hofer, Michael (CERN) ; Howling, Emily (Royal Holloway, U. of London) ; Hunchak, Patrick (Saskatchewan U.)
The Future Circular electron-positron Collider (FCC-ee) is a proposal for a 91.17 km collider, which would operate in four modes with energies ranging from 45.6 GeV (Z-pole) to 182.5 GeV (ttbar-production). At high energies the beam lifetime could be as low as 6 minutes, requiring the beam to be continuously topped up to reach a high integrated luminosity. [...]

Design optimization of the water-cooled coil for the LEIR extraction septum
/ Lackner, Friedrich (CERN) ; Balhan, Bruno (CERN) ; Motschmann, Fritz (CERN) ; Borburgh, Jan (CERN) ; Atanasov, Miroslav (CERN) ; Masson, Thierry (CERN) ; Erends, Vera (Utrecht U.)
A pulsed septum magnet (SMH40) is used for heavy ion extraction from the Low Energy Ion Ring (LEIR). A non-conformity on the coil cooling circuit made it necessary to consolidate the design of the septum blade and related manufacturing process. [...]

Recent years have seen an increased interest in the use of helium for radiation therapy of cancer. Helium ions can be more precisely delivered to the tumour than protons or carbon ions, presently the only beams licensed for treatment, with a biological effectiveness between the two. [...]

Achievements and Performance Prospects of the Upgraded LHC Injectors

To provide HL-LHC performance, the CERN LHC injector chain underwent a major upgrade during an almost 2-year-long shutdown. In the first half of 2021 the injectors were gradually re-started with the aim to reach at least pre-shutdown parameters for LHC as well as for fixed target beams. [...]
