/ Niccolini, Marco (CERN) ; Barrientos, Diego (CERN) ; Suminski, Maciej (CERN) ; Angoletta, Maria Elena (CERN) ; Soderen, Martin (CERN) ; Freyermuth, Pierre (CERN) ; Brischetto, Ylenia (CERN)
A low-latency, real-time diagnostic system for the analysis of longitudinal Schottky signals in CERN’s antiproton chain has been developed. The system, installed in CERN’s Antiproton Decelerator (AD), processes the combined output of two low-noise, wideband AC beam transformers. [...]

Operation and New Capabilities of CERN's Digital LLRF Family for Injectors
/ Angoletta, Maria Elena (CERN) ; Findlay, Alan (CERN) ; Rey, Anthony (CERN) ; Bielawski, Bartosz Przemyslaw (CERN) ; Barrientos, Diego (CERN) ; Suminski, Maciej (CERN) ; Soderen, Martin (CERN) ; Jaussi, Michael (CERN) ; Albright, Simon (CERN) ; Brischetto, Ylenia (CERN) et al.
CERN’s digital Low-Level RF (LLRF) family for injectors is deployed on CERN’s PS Booster (PSB), Low Energy Ion Ring (LEIR), Extra Low ENergy Antiproton (ELENA) ring and Antiproton Decelerator (AD). It implements multiple capabilities, including beam and cavity feedback loops, bunch shaping, longitudinal blowup, bunch splitting and longitudinal diagnostics.New capabilities are now available and the LLRF family is soon going to be deployed for tests also in CERN’s Proton Synchrotron (PS).

Commissioning strategies of hollow electron lens residual kick compensation
/ Rakic, M (Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; Bruce, R (CERN) ; Giovannozzi, M (CERN) ; Hermes, P (CERN) ; Kotzian, G (CERN) ; Redaelli, S (CERN) ; Soderen, M (CERN) ; Valuch, D (CERN)
Hollow electron lenses (HELs) could be used in the HL-LHC to selectively remove halo particles from the circulating beams. While the ideal design should leave particles in the beam core unaffected, in reality, the core particles will be exposed to a small residual kick that could induce transverse emittance blowup if not properly compensated while the HEL is operated in pulsed mode.

Harmonics of 50 Hz on the beam spectrum of the Large Hadron Collider
/ Kostoglou, S (CERN) ; Bartosik, H (CERN) ; Sterbini, G (CERN) ; Soderen, M (CERN)
Studies of the beam spectrum of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have revealed the existence of harmonics of the mains frequency (50~Hz), ranging from 50~Hz to 8~kHz, in the form of transverse dipolar excitations. The restart of the LHC operation in Run 3 was accompanied by substantial improvements in the beam instrumentation. [...]

The High Luminosity upgrade of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) aims to achieve stored beam energies of 680 MJ. One possible limit to the achievable intensity is the quench limit of the superconducting magnets downstream of the betatron collimation insertion. [...]

Reconstruction of Transverse Phase Space From Transverse Feedback Data for Real Time Extraction of Vital LHC Machine Parameters
/ Kotzian, Gerd (CERN) ; Soderen, Martin (CERN) ; Solvang, Preben (CERN) ; Stopjakova, Viera (Bratislava, Inst. Phys.) ; Valuch, Daniel (CERN)
The LHC transverse feedback system (ADT) provides bunch by bunch, turn by turn, normalized and digitized beam position signals from four pick-ups per plane and for each beam. Together with already existing powerful computer-based observation systems, this data can be used to reconstruct in real-time the transverse phase space coordinates of the centre-of-charges, for each individual bunch.

Digital Low-Level RF System for the CERN Linac3 Accelerator
/ Valuch, Daniel (CERN) ; Alemany-Fernández, Reyes (CERN) ; Brischetto, Ylenia (CERN) ; Faeroe, Sindre (CERN) ; Piccinini, Giampaolo (CERN) ; Soderen, Martin (CERN)
A major consolidation of the aging RF system of the CERN Linac3, the ion source for the whole CERN accelerator chain, started during the Long Shutdown II. The main changes were an upgrade of the analogue Low-Level RF system (LLRF) and replacement of the 350 kW tube amplifiers by a solid-state equivalent. [...]
