Alignment & stability challenges for FCC-ee

In order to achieve its ultra-low vertical emittance (1 pm) and high luminosity (of up to 230 x 10(34) cm(-2) s(-1) per collision point), the e(+)e(-) Future Circular Collider (FCC-ee) requires a well-informed alignment strategy, powerful correction method ...

Design of a Collimation Section for the FCC-ee

Tatiana Pieloni, Bruce Roderik, Frank Zimmermann

The design parameters of the FCC-ee foresee operation with a total stored beam energy of about 20 MJ, exceeding those of previous lepton colliders by almost two orders of magnitude. Given the inherent damage potential, a halo collimation system is studied ...

Path to AWAKE: Evolution of the concept

Yiming Li, Hua Zhang, Gennady Plyushchev, Shuai Liu, Frank Zimmermann

This paper describes the conceptual steps in reaching the design of the AWAKE experiment currently under construction at CERN. We start with an introduction to plasma wakefield acceleration and the motivation for using proton drivers. We then describe the ...

Modeling microwave/electron-cloud interaction

Michael Mattes, Francisco Edén Sorolla Rosario, Frank Zimmermann

Starting from the separate codes BI-RME and ECLOUD or PyECLOUD, we are developing a novel joint simulation tool, which models the combined effect of a charged particle beam and of microwaves on an electron cloud. Possible applications include the degradati ...
