Prof. Georg Hoffstaetter (Cornell University, LEPP)15/12/2010, 10:50Effect of non-zero dispersion for a local crab crossing scheme for the LHC is considered and its impact on stable working point in the presence of crab cavities is analysed. The maximum allowed dispersion (and slope of dispersion?) at the crab-cavity is estimated. Effects of higher order optical aberrations and RF curvature, and their impact on the IR region optics and working point are also...Go to contribution page

Dr Ezio Todesco (CERN)15/12/2010, 11:50Assuming a successful implementation of the crab scheme with the current IR focusing layout, a future outlook with concepts and associated challenges for the magnet technology to devise independent focusing channels at the IRs for the two beams with larger-angle crab crossing. This could alleviate long range beam-beam problems and enable easier optics solutions for reducing beta*.Go to contribution page
