Run II Upgrades Status January 2006 Pushpa Bhat
Outline • Technical Progress • Project Status • Status Report for December ‘05
Technical Progress • AP2, DB studies • Dave’s talk • Li Lens • One each of PT-1 and PT-2 lenses will be filled and the PT-2 will be tested on the test stand. PT-2 should be ready for beam in June. • Rapid Transfers • Many elements of the upgrade are in place (ramping power supplies, BPMs) providing benefits to operations in various modes • Transfers without reverse proton tune-up tried many times last week with good results
Technical Progress (contd.) • 2.5 MHz pbar acceleration in MI • Results from 2 pbar study periods promising: 86- 93% eff while tuning, ~ 30% • Shows 100% efficiency and ~10% emittance growth in proton studies for relevant intensities and emittance • May save 15% pbars now being lost in MI during acceleration and coalescing • current scheme acc+ coalescing eff. ~85%, 80% • better beam quality, hence expect lower losses in Tev and gain in luminosity due to smaller long. Emittance • Overall expect >20% gain in peak luminosity • Contention on how to proceed. There was a recent review held by McGinnis/Kourbanis. • McGinnis report: Potential for 5-10% in L.dt now • We should try a few shots before shutdown • Far less risky and far less complicated than trying to recover and recycle pbars! • Compare with many projects in pbar source each <10% gain
Technical Progress (Contd.) • MI BPM upgrade • Most of the hardware designed, ordered or delivered • First test system almost ready; will be installed in MI40 next week, replacing the old system • Full upgrade during and immediately after shutdown • BLM upgrades • Prototype system running at MI60 for ~ 3 months, with PC instead of local control card. Control card + software under test • Production to be completed by 4/15, a month of testing followed by installation
Technical Progress (Contd.) • IPM, OTR detectors • One each installed in the Tevatron during the Dec. shutdown. Now fixing some problems. Might have some data after the current shutdown • Tevatron Electron Lens • Good progress • TEL-1 upgraded with new SEFT e-gun • TEL-2 essentially ready for installation • Tev ES separators • Install in SD’06, 2 new separators and swap 3 existing separators (these were sparking at higher voltages when larger collision helix were tried last Fall.)

Possible Additions • Chromatic Compensation in the Tev Lattice • The mom. spread combined with chromatic error in the optics lead to poorer beam lifetimes. Correct the chromatic errors by implementing new circuits using existing sextupole magnets • Benefits: • Improves beam lifetime leading to 5-10% L.dt gain • Allows Tev to be operated at a new working point near ½ integer resonance. This in turn allows more intense proton bunches to be used in Tev stores. Can lead to another 10% gain in L.dt • A review was held in Dec., 2005 • Three versions of the hardware implementation and cost estimates presented with cost estimates of $620K (v1) (whole ring), $220K (v2) and $107K (v3). • Since v3 seems to provide optimal benefit and the most cost effective, we would like to pursue v3.
Possible Gains (Peak Luminosity) • Pbar stack rate + aperture up by another 30% ? • 2.5 MHz pbar acceleration 10-20% • More protons 230E9 ppb 20% • Chromatic Compensation 10%
Near term Reviews/Decisions (Contd.) • Beam-beam effects in Tev • Jan. 26, ’06 • Tev alignment SD’06 work • Feb. ’06 • Pbar aperture SD’06 work • Aperture: band-4 cooling tank arrays + DB extraction kicker magnet (+ DB extraction kicker motorized stand) <7% gain expected; Lot of effort, Risky? Review late February • 2.1 Reliability Upgrades • Infrastructure: 345-KV switchgear spares for KRS, MMS
