Description
The SPS and LHC optics have already changed during the design phase
and can be expected to further change
during operation.
The combined system of SPS, TI 2, TI 8 and the LHC should be well
matched to allow for clean injection and
minimum emittance blow-up. This implies that the transfer lines have
to provide some flexibility. In addition
to the requirement to match to the SPS and LHC, there are also
internal constraints in the transfer lines on the
phase advance differences between collimators. The expected range of
optics changes and the requirements
to match these will be critically analysed.
