Week 26 - Parallel MD
Monday 25/6/2012 to Friday 29/6/2012, between 08h00 and 18h00 compatibly with physics and LHC

SPS MDs

Friday 29/06

MD title: PS-SPS transmission studies
Beam conditions: single batch 50ns beam

PSB user = LHC_A + LHC_B
PS user = LHC_DB_50ns_Long_Trans
SPS user =
LHCMDION
RF MMI target = LHCMD2

Contact People: H. Damerau, H. Timko

Additional remarks: The 40 MHz spare cavity in the PS can now be used for this study. Time for parallel MDs in the SPS on Friday could be limited due to the start up of the LHC after the Technical Stop.

 

PS MDs

MDus1

MD title: Electron cloud + transverse instabilities @ flat top
Beam conditions: LHC-type beam


PSB user = LHC_MD_A + LHC_MD_B
PS user = LHC_25_FT_instab

Contact People: M. Pivi, G. Iadarola

Additional remarks:

 

MDus2

MD title: Tune diagram measurements
Beam conditions: large emittance beam


PSB user = XL_T_EMITT_PSB
PS user = LIU_V1_Tune_Alex

Contact People: A. Huschauer, BE/OP

Additional remarks: Measurements can be done or continued at night time, when possible

 

MDus3

MD title: Dependence of BCT reading on beam position in TT2
Beam conditions: LHC-type beam


PSB user = LHC50_DB_A_PSB + LHC50_DB_B_PSB
PS user = LHC_DB_50ns_Clone

Contact People: F. Lenardon

Additional remarks: Steering of the beam in the TT2 will be needed

 

MDus4

MD title: Modification of 2nd injection LHC beam control
Beam conditions: LHC-type beam


PSB user = LHC50_DB_A_PSB + LHC50_DB_B_PSB
PS user = LHC_DB_50ns

Contact People: H. Damerau

Additional remarks: No other multi-bunch LHC-type beam must be present at the same time in the supercycle

 

MDus5

MD title: PS injection kicker MD in normal and short-circuited mode
Beam conditions: 25ns nominal beam and h=9 beam

PSB user =   LHC_MD_A + LHC_MD_B, STAGISO + MD3(LHC_lowemt_H9_A + LHC_lowemt_H9_B)
PS user = MD9, LHC_SU (LHC_DB_50#32)

Contact People: R. Steerenberg, W. Bartmann

Additional remarks: while the MD uses the short-circuited mode of the kicker, the quality of the other beams is degraded

MDusx is the MD user with priority
MDusx is the MD user in "spare" (i.e. replacing MDusx when not available, or called in when second MD cycle available)
** Monday 25/06 and Thursday 28/06 are days of dedicated Injector MD, in which MDs have priority on physics in all injectors
*** Tuesday 26/06 and Wednesday 27/06 are days of injector Technical Stop
