abstract = {{As of today, the LHC ion physics programme is mostly based on Pb ion collisions. The ALICE3 detector proposal requests significantly higher nucleon-nucleon luminosities, as compared to today¿s operation. This improved performance could be potentially achieved with lighter ion species than Pb. In this respect, the CERN Ion Injector chain (consisting of Linac3, LEIR, PS and SPS) will need to provide significantly higher beam intensities with light ion beams as compared to the present ones, whereas operational experience with such beams is limited. We present space charge and intra-beam scattering studies across the Ion Injector chain and strategies to build benchmarked simulation models for optimised ion performance. This is the first step for identifying the ideal ion isotopes and charge states for maximised LHC luminosity production.}},
