  1. 7. Consequences and opportunities of Run 3 extension (15'+10')
    Panos Zisopoulos (CERN)
    10/12/2024, 15:05
    • focus on injectors only
    • risks to be taken, and difficulties to be encountered
    • what could be anticipated in 2025/26 to optimise the post LS3 restart? e.g. needed studies
    • proposal for a LIU Reliability Run; additional MDs to explore limits?

  2. 8. Fault tracking in 2024 (20'+10')
    Jack Heron (CERN)
    10/12/2024, 15:30
    • results of fault analysis per machine (including Exp. Areas)
    • how are the results used? what is AFT ‘actually’ offering? e.g. proactive maintenance
    • follow-up structure and reporting?
    • features to be added, feedback from users (tools and automation covered in Session 6)

  3. 9. Cryogenics in LHC (10'+10')
    Boyan-Kaloyanov Naydenov Popov (CERN)
    10/12/2024, 16:00
    • IR8 cooling capacity and known limitations, available margins
    • follow up on delaying of cryo valve opening (resulting in losses and dumps due to fast growing orbit oscillations, in 2023)

  4. 10. Noise and regulation in SPS power converters (10'+10')
    Charles-Mathieu Genton (CERN)
    10/12/2024, 16:20
    • mains regulationa and overshoot follow-up
    • 50 Hz noise effects on SFTPRO spill, and on protons and ion LHC flat bottom losses;
    • prospects for corrections on the hardware side

  5. 11. Beam instrumentation (focus up to 2026) (10'+10')
    Inaki Ortega Ruiz (CERN)
    10/12/2024, 17:10
    • equipment from commissioning to operation, exploitation and maintenance of existing instrumentation (focus up to 2026)
    • HL preparation, NA-CONS and ECN3, ACC-Cons, feedback from BIFT on upcoming
      consolidation efforts and items not covered
    • BSI, BGC, BGI, wire scanners, …
    • ion beams

  6. 12. Experience with SPS RF and outlook (10'+10')
    Dr Sam Pitman (CERN)
    10/12/2024, 17:30
    • Thales plants: high failure rates, limited RF power
    • status of understanding, solved and open issues, solutions and prospects
    Go to contribution page
  7. 13. ABT Equipment: Operational Insights and Future Perspective (10'+10')
    Giorgia Favia (CERN)
    10/12/2024, 17:50
    • KFA71: missing pulses and availability; status, ongoing analysis (including EPA WP8), monitoring and future plans
    • MKP: new voltage settings on MKP-L (are losses at flat bottom measurably better; plan towards nominal settings); plans to offset MKP to reduce beam induced heating on MKP-S (margins?)
    • MKDH: strategy in case of replacement, options and implications on restart after...

  8. 14. Lessons learnt, ideas and best practises for new equipment design (15'+10')
    Rui Franqueira Ximenes (CERN)
    10/12/2024, 18:10
    • highlights of recent equipment designs, bright ideas, i.e. the bright side of the session, what was done right
