Insertion Magnets and Beam Heat Loads
R. Ostojic, AT/MEL 17
Conclusions for LHC IR magnets
• Heat loads associated to pp collisions are considerable in the experimental insertions, in particular in the low-beta triplets.
• Thermal properties of the coils of both types of low-beta quadrupoles were experimentally studied, and confirm a safety factor of 3 with respect to expected heat load for nominal luminosity.
• MQM and MQY quadrupoles have insulation schemes analogous to the MB. Similar thermal properties could be expected, but have not been experimentally verified.
• Magnets operating at 4.5 K are expected to have higher quench limits for transient losses, but lower for continuous losses than at 1.9K.

Machine Protection and Machine Protection and Collimation challengesCollimation challenges
• Magnet quench limits need to be experimentally validated
Fresca test facility and LHC sector test• Beam Loss Monitors need proper calibration for efficient
machine protection LHC sector test• Learn how to set-up routinely a complicated three-stage
collimation system control beta-beating at ~10% level• Phase-2 collimation system is not compatible with
nominal LHC intensity at 7 TeV, if we want to stabilize the beams using Landau octupoles at zero chromaticity: • use low-noise transverse feedback and chromaticity to stabilize
the beams?• octupoles are “passive” and more reliable ideal to push
machine performance and reduce experimental background levels
• active feedback may increase emittance and reduce luminosity• investigate crystal assisted collimation and/or develop new low-
impedance collimators (e.g., longitudinally segmented or incorporating Cu stripes to carry low-frequency image currents?)

LHC strategy against Electron Cloud
1) warm sections (20% of circumference) coated by TiZrVgetter developed at CERN; low secondary emission; if cloud occurs, ionization by electrons (high cross section ~400 Mbarn) aids in pumping & pressure will even improve
2) outer wall of beam screen (at 4-20 K, inside 1.9-K cold bore) will have a sawtooth surface (30 m over 500 m) to reduce photon reflectivity to ~2% so that photoelectrons are only emitted from outer wall & confined by dipole field
3) pumping slots in beam screen are shielded to preventelectron impact on cold magnet bore
4) rely on surface conditioning (‘scrubbing’); commissioning strategy; as a last resort doubling or triplingbunch spacing suppresses e-cloud heat load

is “scrubbing” needed in LHC? still lacking experimental data, e.g., on max
uncertainty in heat load prediction of factor ~2 also incomplete understanding of scrubbing
(COLDEX data vs. prediction, RHIC, DAFNE) if max~1.3 reached in commissioning, no scrubbing
is needed for heat load and fast instabilities pressure should be ok too according to N. Hilleret one concern: long-term emittance growth and poor
lifetime (observed in SPS after scrubbing) we still believe we need to prepare a scrubbing
strategy in case it turns out to be necessaryto go to max~1.3 (e.g., tailor train spacings & train lengths at nominal bunch intensity)

The same resonance trapping mechanism can explain slow emittance growth and beam losses observed with space charge in the PS (left) and with electron cloud in the SPS (below)
• Particles with large synchrotron amplitudes reach larger and larger betatron amplitudes and are lost bunch shortening
• Particle losses are enhanced by chromaticity

Tentative ConclusionsTentative Conclusions• Some “safety nets” in the original LHC conceptual
design (low-impedance, stabilization by octupoles, full triplet aperture without beam screens) have been sacrificed to guarantee a more robust collimation system and a safer IR vacuum behaviour
• Machine downtime caused by magnet quenches may be initially frequent, until collimation and machine protection are fully mastered
• A shorter machine turnaround time implies reliable tables of quench levels, BLM calibrations, and a dynamic optics control (reference magnets)
• Emittance control will be challenging and may require crystal assisted collimation and/or new low-noise feedback systems.
• A longitudinal feedback may enable shorter bunches and reduce geometric luminosity loss for lower *.

Tentative Conclusions (continued)Tentative Conclusions (continued)• Reaching nominal LHC performance is challenging• Some uncertainties remain in connection with
electron cloud effects and vacuum behaviour of the cold arcs: exceeding nominal beam current may be impossible or take several years operation with 75 ns bunch spacing would reduce e-cloud & long range beam-beam effects and maximize luminosity
• Operation with flat beams can help relaxing IR aperture constraints and/or increasing luminosity
• A re-alignment of the IR quads would further relax aperture constraints, increase luminosity, and minimize energy deposition in the magnet coils. This option should be considered also for the IR upgrade.

Tentative Conclusions for Tentative Conclusions for the LHC IR Upgradethe LHC IR Upgrade
• We do need triplet spares and thus a back-up or intermediate IR upgrade option based on NbTi magnet technology. What is its luminosity reach?
• A vigorous R&D programme on Nb3Sn magnets should start at CERN asap, complementary to the US-LARP programme, to reach an LHC luminosity of ~1035 after 2015
• Alternative IR layouts (quadrupole-first, dipole-first, D0, flat beams, Crab cavities) will be rated in terms of technological and operational risks/advantages by the end of 2006

At injection head-tail modes with growth rates up to about 4 sec-1 are stabilized by lattice nonlinearities (assuming an amplitude detuning of 0.002 at 6 sigma).
The rigid mode m=0 has to be stabilized by the transverse feedback.
