LHC injector chain limits in view of anLHC upgrade

The schemes presently used in the injectors’complexcan provide the nominal beam for LHC with 25 nsbunch spacing, as well as the 75 ns bunch train andvarious test beams.

The ultimate beam is not yet feasible today.

Space charge is the primary limitation, both in thePSB and in the PS, and solutions are proposed.

Beam experiments will be necessary to discover andaddress further limitations in the existing machines.

Consequences

Work is needed to understand and minimisethe beam losses.

Improvements are mandatory to prepare forthe ultimate beam and the future LHCupgrades

Beam experiments are necessary toinvestigate the potential of the existingaccelerators, and especially the SPS (needsearly upgrade of the lower energy injectors)

from: R. Garoby, High Brightness Beams for LHC: Needs and Means, Section 5

Actions proposed

A solution based on RF gymnastics in the PS can beconsidered, but it will never cover the full range ofpossibilities envisaged for the LHC upgrade,

The solution based on LINAC 4 as new PSB injectorgives the potential to investigate most possibilities,and to operate with high reliability.

Ultimately, if a higher energy accelerator like the SPLreplaces the PSB, very high performance beamwould be available at the PS exit.

Other options are open to considerations, such asRapid Cycling Synchrotrons. Issues of dynamic rangefor a superconducting RCS (typical limit 15) need tobe addressed

Brightness increase in the PSthrough Batch Compression

PSB injects 7 (4+3) or possibly 8 (4+4) bunches from two PSBbatches into the PS (h=9),

accelerate up to intermediate energy where space charge isreduced,

compress adiabatically into ≈1/2 of the PS circumference,changing h from 9 to 14

accelerate the beam up to 25 GeV,

split the bunches into 84 using RF

A train of 42 or 48 bunches, spaced by 25 ns

is sent to the SPS every 3.6 s.

Best expected performance: 2.6x1011 ppb @ PS ejection

The issue of the dynamic range

The maximum acceptable dynamic range in a pulsed,superconducting synchrotron (e.g. a Super-SPS) isaround 15, lower values make operation definitivelyeasier

both in the case of the use of an SPL to replace theinjector chain, as well as in the case of a RCS chain,the dynamic range of a Super-SPS for an energy andluminosity upgrade must be reduced (use the presentSPS as a high energy booster up to 150 to 200GeV?)

This fact may have a large impact in the globaloptimization of the chain

Latest news from SPS

In September 2004 during extensive MDs fixed target(CNGS) beam with total intensity of 5.3 x 1013 wasaccelerated in the SPS from 14 GeV/c to 400 GeV/cwith ≈ 10% beam loss.

This is 15% above CERN intensity record of 1997and almost twice more than presently used forphysics.

This is also slightly above ultimate total intensity ofLHC beam in the SPS (which will be “only" 4:9 x 1013

but circulating in 1/3 of the ring)
