Transverse impedance studies of 2D azimuthally symmetric devices of finite length
/ Biancacci, N (CERN) ; Passarelli, A (INFN, Naples) ; Vaccaro, V G (INFN, Naples) ; Metral, E (CERN) ; Salvant, B (CERN) ; Migliorati, M (INFN, Rome ; Rome U.) ; Palumbo, L (INFN, Rome ; Rome U.)
The accurate calculation of the beam coupling impedance for particle accelerators is necessary to carefully assess the machine stability against impedance-driven collective effects. A first order evaluation of the beam coupling impedance is often done by means of analytical formulas and/or 2D numerical codes. [...]

Automated Intensity Optimisation Using Reinforcement Learning at LEIR
/ Madysa, Nico (CERN) ; Alemany-Fernández, Reyes (CERN) ; Biancacci, Nicolo (CERN) ; Goddard, Brennan (CERN) ; Kain, Verena (CERN) ; Velotti, Francesco (CERN)
High intensities in the CERN Low Energy Ion Ring (LEIR) are achieved by stacking up to seven consecutive multi-turn injections from Linac3. Two inclined septa combined with a collapsing horizontal orbit bump allow a 6-D phase space painting via a linearly ramped mean momentum along the Linac3 pulse and injection at high dispersion. [...]

Achievements and Performance Prospects of the Upgraded LHC Injectors
/ Kain, Verena (CERN) ; Albright, Simon (CERN) ; Alemany-Fernández, Reyes (CERN) ; Angoletta, Maria Elena (CERN) ; Antoniou, Fanouria (CERN) ; Argyropoulos, Theodoros (CERN) ; Asvesta, Foteini (CERN) ; Balhan, Bruno (CERN) ; Barnes, Michael (CERN) ; Barrientos, Diego (CERN) et al.
To provide HL-LHC performance, the CERN LHC injector chain underwent a major upgrade during an almost 2-year-long shutdown. In the first half of 2021 the injectors were gradually re-started with the aim to reach at least pre-shutdown parameters for LHC as well as for fixed target beams. [...]

Our Understanding of Transverse Instabilities and Mitigation Tools/Strategy
/ Buffat, X (CERN) ; Arduini, G (CERN) ; Amorim, D (CERN) ; Antipov, S (CERN) ; Barraud, L (CERN) ; Biancacci, N (CERN) ; Carver, L (CERN) ; Giordano, F (CERN) ; Iadarola, G (CERN) ; Li, K (CERN) et al.
The observations of coherent instabilities are compared to the expectations
based on the beam instability model. Their impact in the different phases of the
LHC operation and the corresponding mitigation strategies are discussed, with an
emphasis on the newly developed diagnostics.

Detailed Electromagnetic Characterisation of HL-LHC Low Impedance Collimators

The High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) project will upgrade the LHC machine to allow operation with increased luminosity for the experiments. In order to achieve this goal, different operational parameters of the machine need to be pushed beyond the present design values, including the stored beam energy. [...]

High intensity proton beam impact at 440 GeV/c on Mo and Cu coated CfC/graphite and SiC/SiC absorbers for beam intercepting devices

Beam Intercepting Devices (BIDs) are essential protection elements for the operation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) complex. The LHC internal beam dump (LHC Target Dump Injection or LHC TDI) is the main protection BID of the LHC injection system; its main function is to protect LHC equipment in the event of a malfunction of the injection kicker magnets during beam transfer from the SPS to the LHC.
