SPS injection kicker system: 2023 operational experience and upgrade proposals for high-luminosity LHC
/ Favia, Giorgia (CERN) ; Zannini, Carlo (CERN) ; Standen, Dylan (CERN) ; Velotti, Francesco (CERN) ; Ducimetière, Laurent (CERN) ; Feliciano, Luis (CERN) ; Barnes, Michael (CERN) ; Diaz Zumel, Miguel (CERN) ; Trubacova, Pavlina (CERN) ; Kramer, Thomas (CERN) et al.
The SPS injection kicker system comprises twelve MKP-S (small aperture) modules and four MKP-L (large aperture) modules. An upgraded MKP-L magnet was installed in the SPS, during December 2022, in view of the higher beam intensity needed in the future for High-Luminosity-LHC. [...]

Initial operational experience of an LHC injection kicker magnet upgraded for HL-LHC

The intensity of the HL-LHC beam will be twice that of LHC. Hence, an upgrade of the LHC injection kickers (MKIs) is necessary for HL-LHC to avoid excessive beam induced heating of the MKIs. [...]

Production and validation of the RF cooling damper for the LHC injection kickers

Fast single-turn injection kicker systems deflect incoming beam onto the orbit of the LHC. The higher intensities of High Luminosity (HL) LHC beams are predicted to cause the ferrite yokes of the LHC injection kicker magnets (MKI), in their current configuration, to heat up to their Curie temperature. [...]

Beam Coupling Impedance of the Main Extraction Kickers in the CERN PS

In view of the High Luminosity (HL) upgrade of the LHC, the beam intensity must be doubled in the injector chain. To perform reliable beam dynamics simulations, the beam coupling impedance in the injectors, such as the Proton Synchrotron (PS), must be followed closely by including all contributing elements into the impedance model.

MKP-L Impedance Mitigation and Expectations for MKP-S in the CERN-SPS

Beam coupling impedance mitigation is key in preventing intensity limitations due to beam stability issues, heating and sparking. In this framework, a very good example is the optimization of the SPS kickers beam-coupling impedance for beam-induced heating mitigation. [...]

CERN SPS Dilution Kicker Vacuum Pressure Behaviour under Unprecedented Beam Brightness

The Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) is the second largest synchrotron at CERN and produces high-brightness beams for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Recently, the dilution kicker (MKDH) of the SPS beam dump system (SBDS) has demonstrated unanticipated behaviour under high beam brightness conditions. [...]

The LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) project was put in place between 2010 and 2021 to increase the intensity and brightness in the LHC injectors to match the challenging requirements of the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) project, while ensuring reliable operation of the injectors complex up to the end of the HL-LHC era (ca. 2040).
