  2. Launch of a dedicated study for doubling the beam energy in the LHC  HE-LHC • The Chamonix 2010 discussions led to five new task forces: • -Planning for a long shut down in 2012 for splice consolidation • -Long term consolidation planning for the injector complex • -SPS upgrade task force • accelerated program for SPS upgrade • -PSB upgrade and its implications for the PS (e.g. radiation etc) • -LHC High Luminosity project •  investigate planning for ONE upgrade by 2018-2020 Upgrade Studies and Taskforces Oliver Brüning BE-ABP USLARP DOE Review, FNAL 1-2 June 2011 2

  3. High Luminosity LHC Projects: L. Rossi • prepare for operation at 5 1034 cm-2 sec-1 • prepare for integrated luminosity of 3000 fb-1 (200 fb-1 to 300 fb-1 / y) •  Ready for implementation by 2020 • LHC Injector Upgrade Project: R. Garoby • remove bottlenecks in the PS and SPS • investigate options for PSB upgrade (energy) • LHC Consolidation Project: S.

  4. Pre 2010 Operation Goals! Chamonix 2010: • Two years at 3.5 TeV • 2010: should peak at 1032 cm-2 sec-1 • 2011: ~1 fb-1 at 3.5 TeV • 2012: splice consolidation (and cryo collimator prep.) • 2013: 6.5 TeV - 25% nominal intensity • 2014: 7 TeV – 50% nominal intensity Aggressive M.

  12. LHC running in 2012 to benefit from potential for reaching more than 5 fb-1 before first long shut down. Remain at 3.5 TeV beam energy due to unacceptably high risks for machine operation at beam energies above 3.5 TeV Prepare for 18 month long shutdown in 2013 – 2014 Commissioning and operation at 7 TeV in 2015 and 2016 Upgrade LHC in 2017 to be compatible with operation with above nominal beam intensities (LINAC4 & Collimation upgrade) Chamonix 2011 decisions: Oliver Brüning BE-ABP USLARP DOE Review, FNAL 1-2 June 2011 12

  13. [Outcome Chamonix 2011 presented @ LMC 81 - draft] CERN plan for coming years Oliver Brüning BE-ABP USLARP DOE Review, FNAL 1-2 June 2011

  14. 2011: main goals • Motivation is clear! • 1 fb-1 delivered to each of IP1, IP5 and IP8 at 3.5 TeV • Can probably do better for IP1 and IP5 • It will be a challenge to deliver 1 fb-1 to IP8 • Maximum luminosity : from 2e32 to 3e32 cm-2 s-1 • Luminosity leveling via separation required to get close • Alice • pp run: 5e29 < L < 5e30 cm-2 s-1, leveled by beam separation fast, secure and far-reaching Decided on beta* = 1.5 m in Atlas, CMS; 3 m in LHCb; 10 m in Alice (from Chamonix 2011 discussions) USLARP DOE Review, FNAL 1-2 June 2011

  20. Bunch configuration: -Scrubbing done with 50ns bunch spacing -Injection of batches with trains of 12 to 72 bunches -Injection of up to 96 bunches (4*24) and 144 bunches (4*36) from SPS for 75ns and 50ns bunch spacing done as preparation for later operation Signatures for electron cloud activity: -Vacuum pressure in warm regions -He cooling power on beam screens in cold sections -emittance blowup along bunch trains in the LHC -RF phase shift Electron Cloud Scrubbing run: Oliver Brüning BE-ABP USLARP DOE Review, FNAL 1-2 June 2011 20

  21. General Observations during scrubbing run: -Satellite bunches with bunch train injection -Systematic shift in BPM reading as function of bunch pattern -Non-conformities in components (e.g. swapped cable in QPS for S45) Scrubbing setup and observation: -Intensity increase done in steps of 200 bunches: started with 377 bunches per beam  reached 1020 bunches per beam at the end of the scrubbing run  more than 1014 protons per ring -Vacuum improvements with time constant of ca. 4 hours  scrubbing could provide conditions consistent with 50ns operation Electron Scrubbing run: Oliver Brüning BE-ABP USLARP DOE Review, FNAL 1-2 June 2011 21

  22. General Observations: • -UFO rate larger for longer bunch trains • -some abnormal heat loads in some cryo cells (RF contacts?) • -Multi-bunch and head-tail instabilities for operation with large number • of bunches: • operation with damper at all times (Q and Q’ measurement difficult!) • requires very tight control of Q’ during whole operation cycle • (magnet modeling, correction via data base & reproducibility!) •  goal: dynamic Q’ correction to 1 unit +/- 1 unit • -first signs of R2E (regular access for QPS; collimator position control) • -observation of vacuum spikes (triplet and injection area) • -No beam-beam limit reached yet (record hadron beam-beam parameter) Performance ramp up: Oliver Brüning BE-ABP USLARP DOE Review, FNAL 1-2 June 2011 22

  23. UFOs – unidentified falling objects • Many sudden local losses have been recorded. • No quench, but preventive dumps • Rise time around of the order 1 ms. • Potential explanation: dust particles falling into beam creating scatter losses and showers propagating downstream • Distributed around the ring – arcs, inner triplets, IRs USLARP DOE Review, FNAL 1-2 June 2011 23

  26. Intensity ramp-up after Technical Stop • Several good fills with 1042 bunches • Suffered from several Cryogenic problems after technical stop • Focus on luminosity production during this week: • > 200 pb-1 / week within reach  total of 2 to 3 fb-1 in reach for the year • Next step to 1200 bunches •  requires 144 bunches/injection (new setup) • Last step for intensity ramp up: 1380 bunches per beam  well on track for Chamonix 2011 goals! USLARP DOE Review, FNAL 1-2 June 2011

  27. Several vital studies for LHC performance upgrade: -Collimation studies  review @ CERN in June (rotatable collimator jaws, crystal collimation, hollow e-lens)  tests of rotatable collimator prototypes are planned in the SPS and the CERN HiRadMat facility -Beam instrumentation (AC dipole, L, SLM, Schottky) AC dipole was the key ingredient for achieving optics corrections to 10% level SLM established as key tool for beam diagnostics during ramp (only means for measuring beam size at all energies and bunch by bunch & abort gap monitor) -LL-RF vital tool for controlled beam blow-up during ramp (IBS) USLARP –CERN Collaboration Oliver Brüning BE-ABP USLARP DOE Review, FNAL 1-2 June 2011 27

  28. Several vital studies for LHC performance upgrade: -Broad band feedback as means against e-cloud (SPS upgrade) very efficient setup with combined simulation and feedback studies; this is a very promising and attractive (manageable intervention) remedy for e-cloud effect in SPS -CRAB cavity development as key ingredient to HL-LHC All HL-LHC scenarios rely on CRAB cavities for luminosity leveling -Beam dynamic studies (beam-beam, optics )  USLARP is a vital partner in the High Lumi Design study (beam-beam, optics & lattice, simulations, e-cloud, parameter optimization) USLARP –CERN Collaboration Oliver Brüning BE-ABP USLARP DOE Review, FNAL 1-2 June 2011 28

  29. Several options for future contributions for LHC hardware upgrades -electron cloud feedback system -collimation etc ( see Lucio Rossi’s presentation) Toohig fellowship and Long Term Visitor program: -Very much appreciated by CERN -Very effective integration into the LHC operation -Very attractive synergies between existing (US) expertise and LHC needs (e.g. AC dipole and optics measurements; Schottky, Collimation) USLARP –CERN Collaboration Oliver Brüning BE-ABP USLARP DOE Review, FNAL 1-2 June 2011 29
