Description
The ambitious design goals of the Future electron-positron Circular Collider (FCC-ee) demand excellent orbit and optics control and, therefore, set strict limits on alignment tolerances. One approach to relax the mechanical alignment tolerances is Beam-Based Alignment (BBA), where corrector magnets steer the beam towards the magnetic centre. One of the key challenges of FCC-ee is developing an accurate and fast BBA strategy for quadrupoles and sextupoles. A parallel BBA technique is evaluated and compared in simulations for the GHC and LCC lattice using Xsuite and different BBA techniques are testet at the KArlsruhe Research Accelerator (KARA). In this talk, the first simulation results and beam test results at KARA are presented.
