MD aims PS SPS transfer studies (H. Timko) (only with 25 ns beam)

Nominal (Q26) ─ Low γt (Q20) optics threshold comparison (optimization) 25 ns beam (1st period, 7-8 November) 50 ns beam (2nd period, 9-10 November)

Higher intensities

Page 3: RF measurements during  long MD in Week 45  7-8 & 9-10 November 2011

Outline 50 ns beam (2nd period) I. Intensity : ~1.6x1011 p/b (injected)

II. Intensity : ~1.9x1011 p/b (injected)

25 ns beam (1st period) Intensity : nominal (~1.2x1011 p/b)

• Nominal optics (Q26 - LHCMD1) optimization ─ Phase between the two RF systems φ800 ─ Voltage of the 800 MHz RF• Low γt optics (Q20 – LHCFAST3) optimization ─ Voltage of the 200 MHz RF ─ Voltage of the 800 MHz RF ─ Gain of the Long. Damper at Flat Bottom (FB)• Threshold comparison in single RF system for similar bucket parameters

• Examples

• Threshold comparison in single RF• Examples in double RF (bunch shortening mode)

1 batch mainly

No time for controlled emittance blow-up optimization beam was unstable at Flat Top (FT) in most cases

Q26 - Double RF - 50 ns (1.6x1011 p/b) • V800 = 0.1 V200

• Instability starts at 16 -17 s

• Scan of φ800 didn’t help much (same for whole cycle)

• Losses ~ 5 %

Q26 - Double RF - 50 ns (1.6x1011 p/b) • Change voltage of TWC800 to

V800 = 0.15 V200

• More stable during ramp but not enough V800 for FT• Quadrupole, dipole oscillations at FT • Losses ~ 5 %

5Controlled emittance blow-up is needed !!

Page 6: RF measurements during  long MD in Week 45  7-8 & 9-10 November 2011

• V200 for the same mismatch at injection as for Q26 • V800 = 0.1 V200

• Instability starts at16.5 -17.8 s later!• Long Damper nominal settings for Q20 (15 dB gain at FB)• Losses ~ 5 %

Q20 - Double RF - 50 ns (1.6x1011 p/b)

Page 7: RF measurements during  long MD in Week 45  7-8 & 9-10 November 2011

• V200 closer to matched conditions• V800 as before (0.56 MV const at FB) voltage ratio 0.23 at injection , 0.13 the rest of FB and 0.1 ramp & FT• Long Damper gain 10 dB at FB• Losses ~ 4 %

Results ─ When unstable, instability starts at the end of acceleration ─ Quadrupole oscillations Δτ ~ (0.15 – 0.4) ns at flat top (mainly at the end of the batch) ─ Dipole oscillations Δt up to ~ 200 ps (~15°) for the less unstable (quadrupole) cases (bigger at the middle of the batch)

Round bunches immediately after injection

Small emittances at FT applying emittance blow-up is possible

Small bunch length spread inside the batch

Summary 50 ns beam I. Intensity : ~1.5x1011 p/b (injected)

II. Intensity : ~1.9x1011 p/b (injected) ─ Better for Q20 but unstable in both cycles ─ Losses ~ 8 – 9 % ─ Need time for emittance blow-up for both cycles

25 ns beam Intensity : nominal ~1.2x1011 p/b (injected) ─ Better for Q20. Need of 800 MHz RF for both cycles ─ Low Losses 2.5 – 3 %

• Nominal optics (Q26) ─ Big improvement by increasing the voltage ratio V800 /V200 to 0.15 ─ Emittance blow-up is still necessary.• Low γt optics (Q20) ─ Stable (quadrupole) at FT after optimization (1 batch, 2 RF systems) ─ Small emittances at FT and applying emittance blow-up is still possible ─ Dipole oscillations not always acceptable ─ Further optimization of the Long. Damper settings (and other LLRF?)• Q26/Q20 threshold comparison in single RF system ─ Higher for Q20 ─ Uncontrolled beam blow-up on FB in Q20
