  Laser-cooled ion traps are used to prepare groups of ions in very low temperature states, exhibiting such phenomena as Coulomb crystallization. This corresponds to very small normalized RMS emittances of 10-13–10-12 m, compared to typical accelerator ion sources in the 10-7–10-6 m range. Such bunches could potentially be focused a million times smaller, compensating for the lower number of ions per bunch. Such an ultra-low emittance source could enable high-specific-luminosity colliders where reduced beam current and apertures are needed to produce a given luminosity. Further advances needed to enable such colliders include linear, helical or ring cooling channel designs for increased bunch number or current throughput. Novel high density focal points using only a single bunch also appear possible, where the high density particles collide with themselves. At collider energies ~100 GeV, these approach the nuclear density and offer a way of studying larger quantities of neutron star matter and other custom nuclear matter in the lab.

  This work addresses the origins and the effects of the statistical dependence in non-Gaussian beam distributions with the ultimate goal to identify the most representative case for tracking simulations across the CERN accelerator complex. Starting from the observation that non-Gaussian heavy-tailed transverse beam profiles can be reconstructed from 4D phase space distributions under two different conditions (statistical independence or dependence in the x-y plane), we consider space charge dominated beams interacting with the lattice nonlinear resonances to perform measurements to study the mechanisms that lead to non-Gaussian distributions. Finally, we explore the beam dynamics implications of the above hypotheses in terms of dependent loss processes across the transverse planes.

  The High Luminosity (HL-LHC) project aims to increase the integrated luminosity of CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) by an order of magnitude compared to its initial design. This requires a large increase in bunch intensity and beam brightness compared to the first LHC runs, and hence poses serious collective-effects challenges, related in particular to electron cloud, instabilities from beam-coupling impedance, and beam-beam effects. Here we present the associated constraints and the proposed mitigation measures to achieve the baseline performance of the upgraded LHC machine. We also discuss the interplay of these mitigation measures with other aspects of the accelerator, such as the physical and dynamic aperture, machine protection, magnet imperfections, optics, and the collimation system.

CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is expected to operate with unprecedented beam current and brightness from the beginning of Run 4 in 2029. In the context of the High Luminosity LHC project, the baseline operational scenarios are currently being developed. They require a large octupole current and a large chromaticity throughout the entire cycle, which drives a strong reduction of dynamic aperture, in particular at injection and during the luminosity production phase. Despite being highly constrained, the LHC optics and sextupole and octupole corrector circuits still offer a few degrees of freedom that can be used to reduce resonances and the extent of the tune footprint at constant Landau damping, thereby leading to an improvement of the dynamic aperture. This contribution presents the status of the analysis that will be used to prepare the optics baseline for LHC Run 4.

An important upgrade programme is planned for the collimation system of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in order to meet the challenges of the upcoming High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) project. A first stage of the HL-LHC upgrade was already deployed during the last LHC Long Shutdown, offering important improvements of the collimation cleaning, a significant reduction of the impedance contribution and better cleaning of collisional debris, in particular for ion-ion collisions. This upgrade provides a critical opportunity to explore the LHC intensity limits during the LHC Run 3 and can provide crucial feedback to refine upgrade plans and operational scenarios in the HL-LHC era. This paper describes the performance of the upgraded LHC collimation system that has already enabled stored-beam energies larger than 400 MJ at the unprecedented beam energy of 6.8 TeV, and reviews further upgrade plans envisaged to reach 700 MJ beams at the HL-LHC.
