  1. Status Update and Future Plans for FCC-hh Injection Protection Elisabeth Renner, Mike Barnes, Wolfgang Bartmann, Chiara Bracco, Florian Burkart, AgnieskaChmielinska, Brennan Goddard, Francesco Velotti, David Woog

  2. Outline FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans • Batch length definition as main driver for injection design • Recap of injection straight and transferline design • Background on injection failures • Protection Absorber requirements – no results yet • Simulation strategy for design and validation of injection process • Massless septum as protection device

  3. Motivation • large damage potential of the beam - injection protection needs to withstand entire batch at 3.3 TeV • special attention due to injection into side experiments (as in LHC) FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans • Injection protection scheme has to prevent injection of damaging beam into FCC-hh. It consist of • active protection: interlock system • passive protection: Absorber

  4. Starting Point: Batch Length • Injection Dump (TDI) needs to survive impact of full batch. Reduce number of bunches per batch to stay below damage limits [1] • energy deposition studies [1] result in a maximum allowed stored beam energy of 5.4 MJ limitation to 80 bunches per transfer (4.2 MJ) FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans

  5. Injection System Layout – Injection Straight QD TDI MKI QF MSI QD * • *current design: • # kicker modules: 17 (18) • module length: 1.75 m • Deflection per MKI: 0.01mrad FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans

  6. Injection System Layout – Transfer Line • for now: transferline is matched to injection straight using LHC FODO cell optics • expected adjustments as result of injection protection efficiency studies: • optics might be adjusted to fulfill specifications for transfer line collimators (increase beta functions at absorber, ...) • include momentum collimation at beginning of TL. aim: momentum offset • challenges: • partly superconducting transferline • advantages: • long straight sections available (also valid for scSPS option), which provide flexibility for the design of an appropriate protection system FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans

  7. Failures Scenarios occur during ... ... extraction from HEB to FCC ... transfer ... injection from transferline to FCC straight HEB transferline FCC-hh Injection dump: TDI + TCLIA + TCLIB Extraction protection, similar to injection Momentum collimation TCDI + masks: transferline collimation FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans

  8. Relevant failure scenarios for injection protection • Interlock System prohibits beam transfer in case of non-nominal system parameters. (LHC: last check ~4ms before SPS extraction. To be revised for FCC) • Thus, the system can only fail with impact on beam during those 4ms • Failures during this time result in field changes impacting the beam  only fast/ultrafast failures relevant • Consider time constants of field decay (NC vs SC) • Active protection systems for fast failures (occurring <4ms before extraction; FMCM for e.g. MSE, BETS for MKI)  see appendix Table of components leading to main failure scenarios. Not exclusive FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans

  9. Injection Kicker Failures I TDI hit in grazing impact by part of the batch for modularity of 18 MKI (preliminary aperture, starting point ~8-9 sigma. Expected to change) TDI figure courtesy [2] FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans • Failure can occur, after transfer permit is given and generator starts being charged. • Failure can occur any time of charging process. •  Erratic kick strength of one MKI can be between 0% and 100% (and 200% for single kicker in case vacuum flash over) • trigger dump switch in case of an erratic reduced flattop

  10. Injection Kicker Failures II • LHC: pre-firing thyratron switches and related kicker erratics account for a few events per year  not optimal for FCC: • use semi conductor switches • use different generator concept: Inductive Adder (IA) • advantage: highly segmented pulse generator  20 Layers per generator/magnet with 24 Switches each layer. figure courtesy [2] • reduced failure probability (semi conductor switches / lower voltage per switch) • reduced impact on beam in case of failure (1 layer = 1/20 kicker  ~0.4 sigma).

  11. Failures Scenarios occur during ... ... extraction from HEB to FCC ... transfer ... injection from transferline to FCC straight HEB transferline FCC-hh Injection dump: TDI + TCLIA + TCLIB Extraction protection, similar to injection Momentum collimation TCDI + masks: transferline collimation FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans

  12. Transfer Line Collimators (TCDI) + Masks • protect downstream TL and FCC injection from extraction / TL failures. Bottleneck: Septum! • Start with adapted HL-LHC design, then iterate until attenuation and damage limits are fulfilled. • Good News for FCC-hh: • Long Straight section  enough space available • FODO cell can be adapted to guarantee optimum for shower propagation from TCDI to mask • add momentum collimation at beginning of straight TL section • flexibility to adapt phase advance between collimators figure courtesy [4] • Open: define limits Input/ comments appreciated! • Safe beam level?  FCCW2017: 1E10 p+. • Damage limit / Quench limit Nb3Sn? • Attenuation requirement? figure courtesy [5] FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans

  13. Injection Dump (TDI) • protect downstream collider from injection failures (mainly injection kicker) • Start with adapted HL-LHC design, then iterate until attenuation and damage limits are fulfilled. • HL-HC: • TDI 90 deg phase to MKI • Auxiliary absorber TCLIA at 180+20 deg and TCLIB at 360-20 deg from TDI figure courtesy [2] • FCC-hh: • Damage limit: max. 80 bunches for 3.3 TeV(increase of 30% seems possible) [1] • potentially add vertical TDI if septum failure show to be problematic (not expected) • Worst case: Grazing impact. +-2sigma FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans

  14. HEB (LHC) extraction to transferline • P1 and P8: Extraction system to transferline is basically a copy of the FCC injection system • P6: a dedicated beam dump system • Same studies as for TDI should be conducted for TCDQ of HEB-extraction. • Same mitigation strategies, however some differences: • HEB is filled with > 2000 bunches (in LHC) • interlock system must prohibit a consecutive pulsing of MKE  affect as few bunches as possible. • Dump in P6. • Should not be a showstopper but should be considered to have similar impact and probability as in FCC-hh injection FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans

  15. Next Steps: Design and Validation of Injection Protection • Safe beam level / attenuation requirement? FCCW17: 1E10 p+? • Cooperationwith EN/STI forabsorberdamagelimits • Quenchlimit Nb3Sn? • Cooperationwithcollimationteamtoguaranteecollimationhierachy FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans • start with adapted design from HL-LHC • assume reasonable errors for hardware (with respective time constants) • single passage particle tracking with pycollimate as scattering routine • (1-3) iterate until damage limits and attenuation requirements are fullfilled. • Define according hardware specifications (interlock, apertures etc)

  16. Massless Septum as Protection Device • ‘Extraction’ of miskicked beam through massless septum. • Miskicked beam passes high field region of septum • Non-kicked beam passes zero field region • Same function as QD, but it has a zero field interval instead of a point • No impact on optics of non-kicked beam • Preliminary values: 1m long, 0.65 T (FCCW17). To be confirmed if this is feasible / of interest. • Either dump beam on ‘External TDI’ or use masslesssepta to avoid grazing impact on TDI • Same idea for extraction from HEB FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans

  17. Summary • Upcoming strong focus on injection protection design and validation using pycollimate as scattering routine • FCC-hh needs to be fully protected by TDI / TCLIA / TCLIB system for injection failures (aperture 10-11 sigma?) • Exchange with FLUKA / Collimation team • Assuming HL-LHC like absorber, damage limit >80 bunches for 3.3 TeV injection batch • Transfer line collimation: long straight sections provides high flexibility for protection design • Injection dump: New concepts such as massless septum could improve protection efficiency. Failure probability strongly reduced by new generator concept. • Define interlock levels for active protection/ flattop stability etc. and absorber apertures as result of the tracking studies (balance between protection/injection oscillation and availability) FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans

  19. Injection Oscillations • Defined by level, at which hardware can be interlocked. • Estimate acceptable inj. oscillation and define required interlock level as design specification • Tighten interlock level  reduce availability but also injection oscillations • (e.g. shot to shot variation in LHC by dominated by MSE  rebuild MSE power converter should reduce inj. oscillations) • first scaling from HL-LHC: • +/- 1mm of inj. oscillation. can be taken for aperture/collimation considerations. (HL-LHC: 1.5 mm – pessimistic / upgrade of MSE power converter  1mm) • Value to be confirmed FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans

  21. Active Protection - LHC • Fast Extraction Interlock (FEI), gives transfer permit. Last check of system parameters last 4ms before extraction from SPS • resulting max. orbit excursion at last TCDIH / MSI for worst case failure around 7 sigma • Additional system: Fast Magnet Current Monitor (FMCM) • resulting max. orbit excursion at last TCDIH / MSI for worst case failure around 0.6 sigma • Additional system: BETS to control MKI voltage • in case of discrepancy (HL-LHC: 0.5%)  MKI not pulsed  injected beam • Define required interlock levels and estimate feasibility FCC-hh injection protection: Status update and future plans
