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. [...]

After more than 3 years of shutdown the LHC is again operational in 2022. Experience from the previous Long Shutdown (LS) has shown that the local errors in the triplet quadrupoles changed significantly between Run 1 and Run 2, and first measurements in 2022 unveil further changes. [...]

Mass measurements continue to provide invaluable information for elucidating nuclear structure and scenarios of astrophysical interest. The transition region between the $Z = 20$ and $28$ proton shell closures is particularly interesting due to the onset and evolution of nuclear deformation as nuclei become more neutron rich. [...]

HL-LHC Local Linear Optics Correction at the Interaction Regions
/ García Morales, Hector (Oxford U.) ; Cardona, Javier (Colombia, U. Natl.) ; Tomás García, Rogelio (CERN) ; Fol, E (CERN)
Magnetic imperfections of the HL-LHC inner triplet are expected to generate a significant \beta-beating. For that reason, improved local optics correction techniques at the low-\beta insertions is essential to ensure a high luminosity performance in the HL-LHC. [...]
