Gas jet-based beam profile monitor for the electron beam test stand at CERN
/ Stringer, O (Liverpool U. ; Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech.) ; Zhang, H (Liverpool U. ; Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech.) ; Ady, M (CERN) ; Butti, D (CERN) ; Churchman, A R (CERN) ; Forck, P (Darmstadt, GSI) ; Kumar, N (Liverpool U. ; Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech.) ; Lefevre, T (CERN) ; Mazzoni, S (CERN) ; Sameed, M (CERN) et al.
A non-invasive bidirectional beam profile monitor using beam-induced fluorescence upon a thin sheet of gas has been developed at the Cockcroft Institute in collaboration with CERN and GSI. This device is particularly suited to the Electron Beam Test Stand, and as such, a bespoke gas injection has been optimized for this specific use-case to provide diagnostics unavailable to conventional scintillator screens.

Amorphous Carbon Coating in SPS

Within the LHC Injector Upgrade (LIU) project, the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) needs to be upgraded to inject into the LHC higher intensity and brighter 25-ns bunch spaced beams. To mitigate the Electron Multipacting (E.M.) phenomenon, a well-known limiting factor for high-intensity positively charged beams, CERN developed carbon coatings with a low Secondary Electron Yield (SEY). [...]

For the high-luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider, active control of proton/ion beam halo will be essential for safe and reliable operation. Hollow Electron Lenses can provide such active control by enhancing the depletion of halo particles, and are now an integral part of the high luminosity LHC collimation system [...]
