09:10 → 10:10 CLIC beam-based alignment tests at FACET: current status and future developments

The transport of very low emittances through future linear colliders and accelerators will be possible thanks to advanced procedures called beam-based alignment (BBA): that is, techniques where the beam is steered to a straight line by only using the information that comes from measurements of the beam orbit itself. One such techniques, Dispersion-Free Steering, has been tested at FACET, a 2km long electron linac operating at SLAC. The results of this test will be presented in this talk, as well as the future steps and goals that we will set for the next campaign of experiments at SLAC. This presentation will be proposed to the SLAC Accelerator Research Experimental Program Committee (SAREC) in occasion of the next 'Proposal Review and User Meeting' that will be held on July 25th and 26th at SLAC.

Speaker: Dr Andrea Latina (CERN)
