Update on TWOCRYST: the feasibility of double-crystal fixed-target experiments at the LHC Open
A setup of two bent crystals and a fixed target in the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) could enable the study of the magnetic (MDM) and electric (EDM) dipole moments of short-lived charm baryons with unprecedented accuracy. At the core of…
Optimizing Pb beam losses at the LHCb for maximum luminosity Open
In addition to the physics program with proton beams, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN also provides collisions of fully-stripped Pb beams for about one month per year. When colliding Pb nuclei, electromagnetic interactions are the …
Simulations and measurements of collisional losses with Pb beams at the LHC Open
For about one month per operational year, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN works as a heavy-ion collider. Four one-month Pb-Pb runs have been executed so far as well as two p-Pb runs. The LHC heavy-ion programme is scheduled to cont…
Focusing of high energy electron beam using crystal lenses for applications in radiotherapy Open
The two dominant radiotherapy methods are either simplified in terms of beam generation and handling, which compromises the energy deposition curve in tissues (photon therapy), or require extensive accelerator facilities and complex beam d…
Dataset for the ALICE-FT machine layout design Open
This dataset contains all the information needed to run SixTrack simulations to reproduce the most recent scenario (September 2023) for the ALICE-FT design. An exemplary dataset is also included, together with some simple analysis scripts,…

Compensation of orbit distortion due to quadrupole motion using feed-forward control at KEK ATF Open
The high luminosity requirement for a future linear collider sets a demanding limit on the beam quality at the Interaction Point (IP). One potential source of luminosity loss is the motion of the ground itself. The resulting misalignments …
Conceptual Design of a Collimation System for the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron Open
The Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) is the last accelerator in the LHC Injectors Chain. Its performance is constantly being improved in frame of the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) Project in order to prepare it for the future HL-LHC (High Lumi…
Improving the Performance of an Orbit Feed-forward Based on Quadrupole Motion at the KEK ATF Open
The high luminosity requirement for a future linear collider sets a demanding limit on the beam quality at the Interation Point (IP). Even the natural motion of the ground could misalign the quadrupole magnets to such an extent that the re…
Optimisation analysis and improvement of the effective beam sizes in Accelerator Test Facility 2 Open
A lepton linear collider is considered by the accelerator and particle physics communities as an appropriate machine to perform high precision particle physics research in the TeV energy regime. There are two proposals for the future e+e- …
Progress in Ultra-Low β* Study at ATF2 Open
A nanometer beam size in the interaction point (IP) is required in case of future linear colliders for achieving the desired rate of particle collisions. KEK Accelerator Test Facility (ATF2), a scaled down implementation of the beam delive…
Ground Motion Compensation using Feed-forward Control at ATF2 Open
Ground motion compensation using feed-forward control is a novel technique being developed to combat beam imperfections resulting from the vibration-induced misalignment of beamline components. The method is being evaluated experimentally …
