March 2015 : Outcomes of the Cost and Schedule review
Findings The goal is to provide bunches to the LHC with Nb = 2.0×1011, ex,y = 1.9 mm (the HL-LHC goal is Nb = 2.3×1011, ex,y = 2.1 mm). The two largest items of the scope are (1) an upgrade of the RF system and (2) an upgrade of the beam transfer system to the LHC. The total cost is 76.8MCHF (for M&S (Material and Services? only), with 30.0 MCHF for the RF system and 18.4 MCHF for the beam transfer system. The schedule begins in 2015, hardware installation ends at the end of 2019, beam commissioning to LIU (HL-LHC) performance extends to the end of 2013. For risk all WBS elements were categorized as either 1 or 2 with the exception of the beam dump (risk 3) Comments The scope definition is only preliminary for the SPS. Items for cost savings are (1) the amorphous Carbon (aC) of the SPS chambers (up to 5.4 MCHF savings) and (2) the new internal beam dump (up to 5 MCHF savings). The decision for aC coating can be taken with the scrubbing experience from 2015, and the coating of only some sections of the SPS vacuum chamber is possible. Flanges were found to cause a coupled bunch instability, but shielding of the flanges (at least 2 MCHF) is not in the baseline. The new beam dump, the cabling campaign and the C coating pose the largest schedule risk. If aC coating is not or only partially needed, the schedule risk can be significantly reduced. Concerns were raised over key personnel in the RF group retiring during or shortly after LS2. The planned crab cavity test in SPS was not presented as part of the schedule Recommendations Include the shielding of the flanges in the SPS in the LIU baseline. 17-19 October 2016 LIU-SPS : Brennan Goddard - TE/ABT

Summary / Major upcoming milestones
17-19 October 2016 LIU-SPS : Brennan Goddard - TE/ABT
44
200 MHz Cavity Controller (1/2)
Compatible with frequencies from MHz (ions FT) to MHz Compatible with the full range of synchrotron frequencies Reduction of impedance at fundamental and transient beam loading. A factor 2 improvement is expected, compared to the late nineties implementation. The corresponding gain/bandwidth requirements are being studied Alignment of MHz phase. The compensation of the beam loading in the 200 MHz will be improved, resulting in an expected +- 5 deg MHz) maximum misalignment of the two RF along the batch. Gain/bandwidth requirements being studied Batch per batch longitudinal blow-up. Transition time 225 ns, equal to the p-LHC batch spacing. Given the 640 ns cavity filling time (4-sections) the required RF power must be studied Longitudinal damper, dipole (and quadrupole modes) usable over the full frequency and fs range (p LHC, p FT, ions) and with FM modulated RF (fixed frequency acceleration) Settings driven by functions (ppm) so that they can be varied during the cycle
45
200 MHz Cavity Controller (2/2)
Operation in amplitude modulation mode (LHC p beams, ions FT, ions LHC) to save on CW RF power. Modulation at up to 4 frev (ions FT) Individual Master RF for each cavity, or at least two groups (for slip stacking of LHC ions) Fast voltage modulation (<1 microsecond response time): voltage reduction at injection – LHC p and CNGS beams, non-adiabatic voltage jump at flat top for bunch rotation – LHC p, ions, AWAKE. For the voltage reduction at injection, the fall-time must be below 225 ns (batch spacing) Fast phase modulation (<1 microsecond response time): jump on the unstable phase for bunch rotation (proton FT beam, AWAKE), batch per batch longitudinal blow-up at injection. For the later, the transition-time must be below 225 ns (batch spacing) Fast frequency change (<1 microsecond response time): non-adiabatic locking of cavity on a common reference frequency at the end of the slip stacking process (LHC ions) Compatibility with Fixed Frequency Acceleration: FM modulation during 1 turn (ions LHC, ions FT).
46
800 MHz Cavity Controller Compatible with frequencies from MHz (4 x MHz = first zero of 4-sections cavity) to MHz (4 x MHz ) Compatible with the full range of synchrotron frequencies Reduction of impedance at fundamental and transient beam loading compensation Alignment of MHz phase, resulting in an expected +- 5 deg MHz) maximum misalignment of the two RF along the batch. Required gain/bandwidth being studied Longitudinal blow-up, batch per batch, with transition time below 225 ns (RF power plant allowing) Extended range of frequencies i.e. usable for ions for longitudinal blow-up without Frequency Modulation. Goal: equalization of batches before start ramp Fast voltage modulation (<1 microsecond response time): voltage reduction at injection – LHC p beams, non-adiabatic voltage jump at flat top for bunch rotation – Awake beam Fast phase modulation (<1 microsecond response time): jump on the unstable phase for bunch rotation – Awake and p-LHC beams Settings driven by functions (PPM) so that they can be varied during the cycle.
47
Beam Control: Master RF
At present, we have only one Master RF per beam, but we have several different VCO/DDS, depending on the required frequency range and needed RF manipulations (fixed frequency acceleration for ions) The new LLRF requirements imply One Master RF per cavity (or at least per group of cavities) if we wish to operate them at different frequencies (slip stacking). At the end of the slip stacking process, the RF frequencies must return to the same common value in a fraction of a synchrotron period. This fast and precise reaction is incompatible with a Phase-Locked Loop implementation (as used in the LHC asymmetric collisions p-Pb for adiabatic cogging of the p and Pb rings), but could be implemented by a DDS (similar to the FM modulation in SPS ions fixed frequency acceleration) Improvement on RF noise (ions beams). This was traced to the Master DDS module that is being upgraded.
48
Beam Control: Phase Loop
The phase loop is operational for all beams. It damps common-mode synchrotron oscillations and reduces the effect of RF noise on the first synchrotron sidebands, thereby improving beam lifetime The requirements are Compatible with bunch spacing multiples of 5 ns Compatible with bunch intensity from 2E7 (ions FT after debunching-recapture) to 4E11 p per bunch Compatible with 1 to 80 bunches per batch Individual bunch-by-bunch measurement “Averaging” over the selected bunches One phase loop per group of cavities (slip stacking) with possibility to select the RF voltage measurement as sum of a number of cavities Linear phase discriminator with 360 degrees range (ions, awake). Given the very wide range of bunch intensities (4 decades), it may be appropriate to have parallel systems.
49
Beam Control: Radial Loop
The radial loop is needed to cross transition (proton Fixed Target, ions LHC,…). It will keep the beam centred, even in presence of inaccuracy in the frequency program calculation. The requirements are Compatible with bunch spacing multiples of 5 ns Compatible with bunch intensity from 2E7 to 3E11 p per bunch Compatible with 1 to 80 bunches per batch Individual bunch-by-bunch measurement. Synergy possible with Transverse Damper front-end “Averaging” over the concerned bunches. Given the very wide range of bunch intensities (4 decades), it may be appropriate to have parallel systems An upgrade of the Radial Loop is not required to implement ions slip-stacking, but is motivated by the obsolescence of the equipment (original SPS equipment dating from the 1970s).
