Sorting strategies for the new superconducting magnets for the CERN HL-LHC
/ Pugnat, Thomas (CERN) ; Wegscheider, Andreas (CERN) ; Todesco, Ezio (CERN) ; Giovannozzi, Massimo (CERN) ; Tomas, Rogelio (CERN)
In a circular collider, precise control of the linear optics in the vicinity of the interaction points plays a crucial role in ensuring optimal operational performance and satisfying the machine protection constraints. Superconducting magnets are affected by unavoidable field errors that impact machine performance, and mitigation strategies are usually put in place to improve the situation. [...]

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. [...]

Optics for Landau Damping with Minimized Octupolar Resonances in the LHC
/ Wenninger, J (CERN) ; Solfaroli, M (CERN) ; Nissinen, T (CERN) ; Hostettler, M (CERN) ; Horney, S (CERN) ; Chudoba, F (CERN) ; Tomás García, Rogelio (CERN) ; Carlier, Felix (CERN) ; Deniau, Laurent (CERN) ; Dilly, Joschua (CERN) et al.
Operation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) requires strong octupolar magnetic fields to suppress coherent beam instabilities. The amplitude detuning that is generated by these octupolar magnetic fields brings the tune of individual particles close to harmful resonances, which are mostly driven by the octupolar fields themselves. [...]

Experimental Demonstration of Machine Learning Application in LHC Optics Commissioning
/ Fol, Elena (CERN) ; Cardona, Javier (Colombia, U. Natl.) ; Carlier, Felix (CERN) ; Dilly, Joschua (CERN) ; Hofer, Michael (CERN) ; Keintzel, Jacqueline (CERN) ; Le Garrec, Mael (CERN) ; Maclean, Ewen (CERN) ; Persson, Tobias (CERN) ; Soubelet, Felix (CERN) et al.
Recently, we conducted successful studies on the suitability of machine learning (ML) methods for optics measurements and corrections, incorporating novel ML-based methods for local optics corrections and reconstruction of optics functions. After performing extensive verifications on simulations and past measurement data, the newly developed techniques became operational in the LHC commissioning 2022. [...]
