Abstract
The Future Circular Collider (FCC) study is developing designs for a new research infrastructure to host the next generation of higher performance particle colliders to extend the research ...currently being conducted at the LHC. In particular, FCC-ee is an electron-positron collider, which is the first stage towards a 100 TeV proton-proton collider FCC-hh. FCC-ee may be affected by electron cloud (e-cloud) and the strongest effects are foreseen for the Z configuration, due to the highest number of bunches, which corresponds to the smallest bunch spacing. The presence of a large electron density in the beam pipe can limit the achievable performance of the accelerator through different effects like transverse instabilities, transverse emittance growth, particle losses, vacuum degradation and additional heat loads of the inner surface of the vacuum chambers. In the design phase, the goal is to suppress the e-cloud effects in FCC-ee and, therefore, a preliminary study to identify the parameters, which play a significant role in the e-cloud formation has been performed. In this paper, an extensive e-cloud simulation study is presented. In particular, the impact of the e-cloud is studied for different configurations, for example: for the electron and the positron beam; in the different elements of the particle accelerator; changing the beam chamber geometry; for different values of the Secondary Emission Yield (SEY); and for different beam parameters.
At the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), absolute luminosity calibrations obtained by the van der Meer (
vdM
) method are affected by the mutual electromagnetic interaction of the two beams. The colliding ...bunches experience relative orbit shifts, as well as optical distortions akin to the dynamic-
β
effect, that both depend on the transverse beam separation and must therefore be corrected for when deriving the absolute luminosity scale. In the
vdM
regime, the beam–beam parameter is small enough that the orbit shift can be calculated analytically. The dynamic-
β
corrections to the luminometer calibrations, however, had until the end of Run 2 been estimated in the linear approximation only. In this report, the influence of beam–beam effects on the
vdM
-based luminosity scale is quantified, together with the associated systematic uncertainties, by means of simulations that fully take into account the non-linearity of the beam–beam force, as well as the resulting non-Gaussian distortions of the transverse beam distributions. Two independent multiparticle simulations, one limited to the weak-strong approximation and one that models strong-strong effects in a self-consistent manner, are found in excellent agreement; both predict a percent-level shift of the absolute
pp
-luminosity values with respect to those assumed until recently in the physics publications of the LHC experiments. These results also provide guidance regarding further studies aimed at reducing the beam–beam-related systematic uncertainty on beam–beam corrections to absolute luminosity calibrations by the van der Meer method.

Abstract The Schottky monitors of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) can be used for non-invasive beam diagnostics to estimate various bunch characteristics, such as tune, chromaticity, bunch profile or ...synchrotron frequency distribution. However, collective effects, in particular beam-coupling impedance, can significantly affect Schottky spectra when large bunch charges are involved. In such conditions, the available interpretation methods are difficult to apply directly to the measured spectra, thus preventing the extraction of beam and machine parameters, which is possible for lower bunch charges. To study the impact of impedance on such spectra, we introduce a method for building Schottky spectra from macro-particle simulations performed with the PyHEADTAIL code, applied to LHC beam conditions. In this case, the use of a standard Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm to recover the spectral content of the beam becomes computationally intractable memory-wise, because of the relatively short bunch length compared to the large revolution period. To circumvent this difficulty, a semi-analytical method was developed to efficiently compute the Fourier transform. The simulated Schottky spectrum is then compared against theoretical formulas and measurements of Schottky signals previously obtained with lead ion beams in the LHC where impedance effects are expected to be limited. Furthermore, this study provides preliminary interpretations of the impact of beam-coupling impedance on proton Schottky spectra by incorporating longitudinal and transverse resonator-like impedance models into the simulations. A theoretical framework is also introduced for the case of the longitudinal impedance, allowing the extension of the existing theoretical formalism.
Machine learning entails a broad range of techniques that have been widely used in Science and Engineering since decades. High-energy physics has also profited from the power of these tools for ...advanced analysis of colliders data. It is only up until recently that Machine Learning has started to be applied successfully in the domain of Accelerator Physics, which is testified by intense efforts deployed in this domain by several laboratories worldwide. This is also the case of CERN, where recently focused efforts have been devoted to the application of Machine Learning techniques to beam dynamics studies at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). This implies a wide spectrum of applications from beam measurements and machine performance optimisation to analysis of numerical data from tracking simulations of non-linear beam dynamics. In this paper, the LHC-related applications that are currently pursued are presented and discussed in detail, paying also attention to future developments.
Abstract
The Dynamic Aperture is an important concept for the study of non-linear beam dynamics in a circular accelerator. The DA is defined as the extent of the phase-space region in which the ...particle’s motion remains bounded over a finite number of turns. Such a region is shaped by the imperfections in the magnetic fields, beam-beam effects, electron lens, electron clouds, and other non-linear effects. The study of the DA provides insight into the mechanisms driving the time evolution of beam losses, which is essential for the operation of existing circular accelerators, such as the CERN Large Hadron Collider, as well as for the design of future ones. The standard approach to numerical evaluation of the DA relies on the ability to accurately track initial conditions, distributed in phase space, on a realistic time scale, and this is computationally demanding. To accelerate the angular DA calculation, we propose the use of a Machine Learning technique for the angular DA regression based on simulated HL-LHC data. We demonstrate the implementation of a Deep Neural Network model by measuring the time and assessing the performance of the angular DA regressor, as well as carrying out studies with various hardware architectures including CPU, GPU, and TPU.

Abstract
The FCC-ee project takes a step forward towards the discovery of new physical phenomena beyond the frontier of the standard model, by aiming at unprecedented center of mass energies and ...luminosities in a double-ring lepton collider. In order to explore potential improvements to the current lattice design, this paper examines the use of combined function magnets within the short straight sections of the arc cells. The use of High Temperature Superconductors (HTS) with an operating temperature of 12 K and maximum field of 18.2 T for the combined function magnets allows increasing the bending radius and decreasing the synchrotron radiation. A first design is presented with comparisons to the current baseline.
A new model for the description of beam instabilities in synchrotrons featuring wakefields and space charge forces is proposed, using the circulant matrix approach. The predictions of this model are ...discussed in light of past ones, with a particular emphasis on the possible mitigation of the transverse mode coupling instability by space charge forces. The existence of transient amplification in spite of the absence of unstable eigenvalues in configuration featuring strong space charge forces is also addressed. It is shown that this behavior can be recovered when considering an airbag distribution. Yet when considering a more realistic Gaussian distribution, the radial modes lead to other types of mode coupling instabilities. The predictions of the new model are then compared to results of an experiment conducted at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron, showing a reasonable agreement.
Abstract Dynamic aperture is an important concept for the study of non-linear beam dynamics in circular accelerators. It describes the extent of the phase-space region where a particle's motion ...remains bounded over a given number of turns. Understanding the features of dynamic aperture is crucial for the design and operation of such accelerators, as it provides insights into nonlinear effects and the possibility of optimising beam lifetime. The standard approach to calculate the dynamic aperture requires numerical simulations of several initial conditions densely distributed in phase space for a sufficient number of turns to probe the time scale corresponding to machine operations. This process is very computationally intensive and practically outside the range of today's computers. In our study, we introduced a novel method to estimate dynamic aperture rapidly and accurately by utilising a Deep Neural Network model. This model was trained with simulated tracking data from the CERN Large Hadron Collider and takes into account variations in accelerator parameters such as betatron tune, chromaticity, and the strength of the Landau octupoles. To enhance its performance, we integrate the model into an innovative Active Learning framework. This framework not only enables retraining and updating of the computed model, but also facilitates efficient data generation through smart sampling. Since chaotic motion cannot be predicted, traditional tracking simulations are incorporated into the Active Learning framework to deal with the chaotic nature of some initial conditions. The results demonstrate that the use of the Active Learning framework allows faster scanning of the configuration parameters without compromising the accuracy of the dynamic aperture estimates.
The transverse emittance growth rate of colliding hadron beams driven by external sources of noise is investigated based on existing analytical model as well as on macro-particle simulations and ...comparison to experimental data at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). It is shown that an analytical description of the emittance growth rate neglecting the existence coherent beam-beam mode can nevertheless provide accurate estimate for operational conditions, featuring notably a high chromaticity. The model is used to investigate the level of noise experienced by the LHC beams. The results indicate that a significant reduction of the noise floor of the transverse feedback’s beam position monitor is required for operation with a large beam-beam tune shift, as the one anticipated for the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC).
