UPGRADE PLANS FOR THE CERN ACCELERATOR COMPLEX OUTLINE • Why upgrade ? When ? • Injectors • LHC • Preliminary expectations LHCC – 1 July, 2008 R. Garoby
Why upgrade the LHC ? Radiation damage limit Hardware ageing Foreseeable luminosity evolution ã J. Strait Error halving time Þ Need for a major luminosity upgrade in ~2017 (SLHC) LHCC – 1 July, 2008 2 R. G.
Why upgrade the injectors ? Need for reliability: Accelerators are old [Linac 2: 1978, PSB: 1975, PS: 1959, SPS: 1976] They operate far from their design parameters and close to hardware limits The infrastructure has suffered from the concentration of resources on LHC during the past 10 years Need for better beam characteristics LHCC – 1 July, 2008 3 R. G.
When ? Start of SLHC: ~2017 Þ start of construction (New IR hardware and new injectors): ~2012 Þ Detailed project proposal (TDR + cost estimates): mid-2011 Þ R & D for new IR hardware and new injectors: 2008 -2011 LHCC – 1 July, 2008 4 R. G.
INJECTORS
Upgrade procedure Main performance limitation: Incoherent space charge tune spreads DQSC at injection in the PSB (50 Me. V) and PS (1. 4 Ge. V) because of the required beam brightness N/ e*. Þ need to increase the injection energy in the synchrotrons • • • Increase injection energy in the PSB from 50 to 160 Me. V kinetic Increase injection energy in the SPS from 25 to 50 Ge. V kinetic Design the PS successor (PS 2) with an acceptable space charge effect for the maximum beam envisaged for SLHC: => injection energy of 4 Ge. V LHCC – 1 July, 2008 6 R. G.

Stage 1: Planning Milestones Ø End CE works: December 2010 Ø Installation: 2011 Ø Linac commissioning: 2012 Ø Modifications PSB: shut-down 2012/13 (6 months) Ø Beam from PSB: 1 rst of May 2013 LHCC – 1 July, 2008 11 R. G.
Stage 1: Benefits Stop of Linac 2: End of recurrent problems with Linac 2 (vacuum leaks, etc. ) End of use of obsolete RF triodes (hard to get + expensive) Higher performance for the PSB: Space charge decreased by a factor of 2 in the PSB Þ potential to double the beam brightness and fill the PS with the LHC beam in a single pulse: no more long flat bottom at PS injection + shorter flat bottom at SPS injection: easier/ more reliable operation / potential for ultimate beam from the PS Þ easier handling of high intensity. Low loss injection process (Charge exchange instead of betatron stacking) High flexibility for painting in the transverse and longitudinal planes (high speed chopper at 3 Me. V in Linac 4) More intensity per pulse available for PSB beam users (ISOLDE) – up to 2´ More PSB cycles available for other uses than LHC First step towards the SPL: Linac 4 will provide beam for commissioning LPSPL + PS 2 without disturbing physics LHCC – 1 July, 2008 12 R.

Stage 2: Planning Construction of LP-SPL and PS 2 will not interfere with the regular operation of Linac 4 + PSB for physics. Similarly, beam commissioning of LP-SPL and PS 2 will take place without interference with physics. Milestones Ø Project proposal: June 2011 Ø Project start: January 2012 Ø LP-SPL commissioning: mid-2015 Ø PS 2 commissioning: mid-2016 Ø SPS commissioning: May 2017 Ø Beam for physics: July 2017 LHCC – 1 July, 2008 15 R. G.
Stage 2: Benefits Stop of PSB and PS: End of recurrent problems (damaged magnets in the PS, etc. ) End of operation of old accelerators at their maximum capability Safer operation at higher proton flux (adequate shielding and collimation) Higher performance: Capability to deliver 2. 2 ´ the ultimate beam for LHC to the SPS Þ potential to prepare the SPS for supplying the beam required for the SLHC, Higher injection energy in the SPS + higher intensity and brightness Þ easier handling of high intensity. Potential to increase the intensity per pulse. Benefits for users of the LPSPL and PS 2 More than 50 % of the LPSPL pulses will be available (not needed by PS 2) Þ New nuclear physics experiments – extension of ISOLDE (if no EURISOL)… Upgraded characteristics of the PS 2 beam wrt the PS (energy and flux) Potential for a higher proton flux from the SPS LHCC – 1 July, 2008 16 R.

Preliminary improvements Enabled by additional resources for “New Initiatives” + Support of EU-FP 7 & US-LARP Collimation phase 2 Goal: 10 ´ better in cleaning efficiency / impedance / set-up time (accuracy? ), much more robust against radiation and better for radiation handling. Means: Cleaning efficiency: add. metallic collim. + cryogenics collim. inside sc dispersion suppressor + # material for primary collim. Impedance: investigate new ideas (!) + beam feedback + use less collimators + increased triplet aperture (IR upgrade phase 1) Set-up time (accuracy ? ): BPM inside collimator jaws Planning: Conceptual design review by end 2008 Hardware test with & without beam in 2009/2010 Operational in 2011/2012 LHCC – 1 July, 2008 19 R.

Scope: Upgrade of ATLAS and CMS IRs. Replace present triplets with wide aperture quadrupoles based on LHC dipole cables (Nb-Ti) cooled at 1. 9 K. Upgrade D 1 separation dipole, TAS and other beam-line equipment so as to be compatible with the inner triplet aperture. Modify matching sections (D 2 -Q 4, Q 5, Q 6) to improve optics flexibility. Introduction of other equipment to the extent of available resources. Planning: operational for physics in 2013 LHCC – 1 July, 2008 20 R. G.

G.
Luminosity lifetime Increased luminosity Þ reduced life time Compensation measures Þ increased total intensity : either more bunches ( n b ) : abandoned because of heat load to the beam screen and electron clouds effects or higher intensity per bunch ( N b ): “soft” limit used in the LPA scheme Po ssible additional action: luminosity leveling LHCC – 1 July, 2008 26 R. G.
Luminosity evolution Luminosity decays faster with ES/FCC schemes ES/FCC LPA Initial peak luminosity may not be useful for physics LPA ES/FCC LHCC – 1 July, 2008 27 But LPA always gives more events per crossing… R. G.
Luminosity leveling Experiments prefer more constant luminosity, with less pile up at the start of the run and higher luminosity at the end. Þ Interest for luminosity leveling How? ES/FCC schemes: variable b* and/or q (either the effective crossing angle at the IP or the field in the crab cavities) LPA scheme: variable b* and/or s. Z LHCC – 1 July, 2008 28 R. G.
