A.Bertarelli, M.Garlasche & MME team F.Caspers, E.Metral, B.Salvant G.Lanza, G.Bregliozzi and Vacuum Team(s) Many others …. Evian Workshop 2012
Scope / Contents SCOPE Focus on what did not work, what is missing, current limitations during the 2012 run.Present the changes to be made during LS1 and expected performance post LS1. CONTENTS • Wire scanners (WS) • Beam Gas Ionization monitor (BGI) • Synchrotron light detector (BSRT) • Abort Gap Monitor (AGM or BSRA) • Longitudinal Density Monitor (LDM) Will not cover: Matching monitor, proposal for a new VELO-Like detector, WCM F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop
Wire Scanners – 2012 issues • Vacuum leaks • Bellow designed for ~ 10’000 scans, in 2012 1 system failed at ~10200 scans • Wire breaking • No evidence of breaking due to beam during normal operation (RF or direct energy deposition). Evidence of ageing due to sublimation. • Wire damage can be traced back to power supply failure followed by server crash that left the wire in between IN and OUT position • Overall accuracy dependence on working point • PM voltage + filter settings on same beam give different beam sizes • Many studies in 2012 (see M.Khun’s talk) • SW, OP GUI • Judged as inefficient by OP (bunch selection, automatic scans, display) • Dumps due to BLM thresholds • Secondary shower amplitude depends on actual wire diameter, that changes with ageing (see next slide) F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop
Wire Scanners – Dumps due to losses • Aged wire partially sublimated smaller diameter lower losses new wire aged wire 34 um 16 um F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop
From beam profile to emittance Beta from beta beating • WS measurements during a test fill, with a high emittance and a low emittance bunch • Beta values during the ramp from linear interpolation 450GeV – 4 TeV Beta from model Beta from K mod F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop M.Khun G.Trad
WS - Upgrades • TS#4 • Install 7 um wire on 1 system • tests before the end of the run for assessing robustness and signal/losses • Thinner wire more robust according to literature, but less material to sublimate before breaking • LS#1 • Possibly thinner wires on all systems • Slightly higher speed (~10% max) • New bellows (aim at gaining a factor 5 in lifetime) • Improve OP GUI (OP+BI) • More system redundancy (big investment, under discussion) • LS#2 (?) • New fast (20 m/s) devices, following SPS prototype after LS#1 • Possibly new detectors (e.g. diamonds) to replace scintillator + PM F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop
BGI – 2012 issues • Both beam 1 BGIs had MCP failures in early 2012 (MCPs were exchanged during winter TS). • Reasons of the failures are understood (Operational/Technical failure) • Protection measures in place (e.g. automatic HV shutdown). • Problem with remote camera gain control, important to provide repeatable beam size measurement. • Camera failures • intensifier reaching Mean Time To Failure • Difficult cross-calibration • no intensity overlap WS/BGI during p-p runs, BSRT B2 problem • Overall results interpretation still difficult F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop
BGI – Results example • WS vs BGI during p-Pb MD (R. Versteegen, see CERN-ATS-2012-094 MD) • 13 Pb bunches, 7e9 charges/bunch • could find good calibration w.r.t. to WS despite low BGI signal • During p-p runs: • Calibration more difficult • Some evidence of dependence on bunch length F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop
BGI - Upgrades • Will dismantle and re-surface the vacuum sealing surfaces to avoid leaks (some troubles in 2012 to have them leak-tight) • MCP refurbishment • Optical system upgrade • To cope with high brightness beams at 7 TeV • HV system upgrade • To ensure a more stable operation • Camera refurbishment • Low level SW re-design from scratch • What is the allowable gas budget during a year? Can we run continuously with gas injection? F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop
BSRT - Introduction Gated camera (BSRTS) Optical delay line Proton/Ion beam DC Camera 60 % 40 % Abort Gap Monitor (AGM) 10 % Neutral filters Color filters 90 % F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop Long. Density Monitor (LDM) 60 % 40 %
BSRT – 2012 Issues • Heating with high intensity beam • Mirror coating and mirror support failures • Absolute and relative calibration (even more difficult in 2012 , affected by heating) • Software • Fast scan on demand (expert GUI) working from early 2012 • Fast scan server (communicating with OP-GUI - V.Kain) tests started in October, to be validated during p-Pb run • Overall reliability – robustness affected by • Extraction mirror heating / failures • FESA server automatisms failures • Steering following heating and energy ramp • Camera gain adjustment following injections and energy ramp F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop
BSRT – Calibration Example • B1 with new optical line (focusing lenses instead of mirrors), 450 GeV during MD period • Excellent agreement BSRT – WS over a wide emittance range, after applying • Magnification within 10% w.r.t. nominal • PSF ~20% smaller than typical values with old optics B1 Vertical Scraping Similar examples exist at 4 TeV F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop 1 mm 1.3 mm 0.8 mm
BSRT – Heating – Findings after B2 mirror removal Mirror clamps deformed Mirror coating blistered • Later Removal of B1 mirror evidenced similar effects • Both mirrors were: silicon bulk + dielectric coating • TS#3: replaced both mirrors • B1: glass bulk + metallic coating – OK only at low beam intensities • B2: silicon bulk + polishing (no coating) – not usable for imaging F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop
BSRT – RF simulations From January: RF laboratory measurements on spare tank E-field of a dominant resonating mode at 650 MHz. (Q = 1263 / Rsh = 25841 Ohm) LHC bunch power spectrum F = 650 MHz P_loss = 10-50W Mirror front Credits: T.Mastoridis, P.Baudrenghien/CERN F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop Mirror Back B-filed of the beam in Time Domain. Red = Hot (bigger current density) Blue = Cold Measured LHC bunch power spectrum. A 650 MHz resonance is very dangerous. Longit. wake impedance of BSRT with and without Ferrite damping
BSRT – Upgrades TS#4 – Intervention on B2 only • Change mirror: dielectric bulk no coating glass bulk + dielectric coating • 6 temperature probes in vacuum, to validate RF – Thermomechanical simulations BASELINE for after LS#1 • New optics • New light parasitic shielding • Extraction mirrors: likely glass bulk + dielectric coating • Need high intensity test to validate itbefore end of this run ! • Modified tank minimizing RF coupling • Operational fast scan server Studies during LS#1 • Expected performances (resolution/accuracy) at 6.5-7 TeV • Monitor lower wavelengths to reduce diffraction ? • Novel tank design, much less sensitive to RF coupling / heating • Reflective tapered pipe with view-port on the side instead of on the bottom? F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop
Abort Gap Monitor • The weakest point remains the steering of the BSRT: “no spot no AG monitor” • A signal presence check could be implemented in the sequencer, but this doesn’t eliminate the need to verify that the telescope is not completely out of steering • BI is preparing a list of self checks to be implemented if possible during LS1, but at the cost of dead times in the measure (less than 1% of availability loss) • Calibration was kept reasonably well updated • Re-calibration each time optical path changed (e.g. due to heating) • The new BSRT optics • Doesn’t use additional delay line to pass from Undulator to D3 imaging • eliminates the need to compensate for light loss at the moment of the delay line insertion F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop After many discussions, we got in the end a rather reliable system – when the BSRT is ‘working’. J. Wenninger – BI Day Dec.2012
Longitudinal Density Monitor (LDM) • The LDM remains an expert tool • The SW is still under development • Artefacts linked to the detector behaviour still need an expert to correct for in normal fills (no impact during VdM scans) • dead time and afterpulse seems to change with filling pattern, to be checked after LS1 • Some reflections can affect the measure and need to be recognized to avoid misinterpretation: particular care was placed in the new optic setup to solve this for B1 • It can measure satellites and ghosts up to 10^-4 but is not good to verify bunch shape at a fine level With 25 ns beams we have to go back to main-main collisions, the interest will then shift back to satellites at injection and luminosity calibration runs.

Conclusions - Overview Transverse and longitudinal diagnostics allowed optimizing and safely running the LHC (WS as references, BSRT bunch-per-bunch, AGM) • need development for improving the overall performance and reliability after LS#1 • For each device we have a list of issues to study, improve, develop for 7 TeV and 25 ns • Fundamental checks before LS1 • BSRT heating • WS thresholds • SW/Control • We need to profit of LS1 for reviewing all instruments low and high level SW individually • Transverse Profile Workshop, CERN, April2013 • Experts from GSI, DESY, FermiLabetc … presenting experience with BGI, Sync. Light etc … Transverse Need high intensity run in Jan-Feb 2013 !! • Longitudinal • AGM reliability depends on BSRT optical line robustness. MP workshop will trigger again interlocking? • LDM needs some work to make it operational, efforts in LS#1, but will re-start likely as expert tool (need for development and relative resources) F.Roncarolo - Evian Workshop
