| Abstract | Two High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (LHC) type crab-cavities have been installed in the CERN SPS for testingpurposes. A first partially successful attempt to characterize the skew-sextupolar component of the radio frequency field of the crab-cavityby means of beam-based techniques has been carried out in 2018.The large orbit distortion produced by the crab cavity dipolar field combined with the multipolar errors in the SPS opticsresulted in some systematic errors that cannot be easily accounted for. After a major overhaul of the SPS turn-by-turnBPM system a second attempt was carried out in 2022. In the attempt to keep under control systematic errors,orbit correctors have been used to compensate the large orbit excursion produced otherwise by the crab cavity.The results of the new measurement are here discussed. |
