47 47 Cryostating and measurements (main dipoles and other magnets) SMA18 cryostating hall at CERN for installing dipole magnets into cryostats SM18: 12 measurement stations are prepared for cold tests of possibly all superconducting magnets A.Rijllard

48 48 Sextupoles and decapoles to be installed at the extremities of the main dipoles Delivery must precede dipole magnet fabrication (contribution from India and fabrication in industry) Corrector magnet fabrication - construction for 11 types of magnets started L. Garcia-Tabares

49 49 Machine protection: Beam energy Beam Cleaning: Beam Cleaning: Capture particles in the warm sections of the LHC with an efficiency of better than 99.9% to avoid losses that could quench superconducting magnets In case of equipment failure, beam instabilities etc: Capture initial beam losses that could damage LHC equipment Beam Loss Monitors close to collimators and other aperture restrictions produce a fast and reliable signal to dump the beam if beam losses become unacceptable For 7 TeV: fast beam loss between 10 6 and 10 7 protons could quench a dipole magnet The beam dump block is the only system that can stand the full 7 TeV beam - 3·10 14 The beam dump block is the only system that can stand the full 7 TeV beam - 3·10 14 protons

50 50 Beam Cleaning System Collimators close to the beam are required during all phases of operation Sophisticated beam cleaning system with many collimators has been designed limit aperture to about 6-10 Together with the Beam Loss Monitors produce a fast and reliable signal to dump the beam if beam losses become unacceptable

52 Example for failure at 450 GeV Assume that the current in one orbit corrector magnet is off by 10% of maximum current (Imax = 60 A) 12.0 mm 16.0 mm Beam+/- 3 sigma Beam+/- 3 sigma and orbit corrector 10 % / 100 % of Imax 56.0 mm Ralphs EURO

53 Beam+/- 3 sigma 56.0 mm 1 mm +/- 8 sigma = 4.0 mm Example: Setting of collimators at 7 TeV - with luminosity optics Beam must always touch collimators first ! Collimators might remain at injection position during the energy ramp Ralphs EURO Collimators at 7 TeV, squeezed

54 54 Particles that touch collimator after failure of normal conducting D1 magnets After about 13 turns 3·10 9 protons touch collimator, about 6 turns later 10 11 protons touch collimator V.Kain Dump beam level 10 11 protons at collimator

55 55 Beam Loss Monitors Primary strategy for protection: Beam loss monitors at collimators continuously measure beam losses u Beam loss monitors indicate increased losses => MUST BE FAST After a failure: u Beam loss monitors break Beam Permit Loop u Beam dump sees No Beam Permit => dump beams In case of equipment failure, enough time is available to dump the beam before damage of equipment - including all magnets and power converters - but issues such a General Power Cut etc. are still being addressed

56 56 Prototype LHC cell: the 110 m long String 2 Full size model of one LHC cell (six dipoles and two quadrupoles) 2001: 3 dipoles and 2 quadrupoles Cooled down to 1.9 K and one dipole and two quadrupole circuits were powered to nominal current Cell has been completed (now six dipoles) and is today being cooled down Experiment were performed in 2001 and will continue soon

57 57 String 2: First Powering of dipole magnets

58 58 String 2: Start of the LHC dipole circuit ramp (0-20s) simulates ramp after injection of beam at 450 GeV 50 ppm of full current = 350 MeV Q.King et al. ICALEPS 2001

59 59 String 2: LHC dipole circuit ramp (0- 4s) 2 ppm = 14 MeV Results were achieved with a new method of digital regulation together with an ultra high precision current measurement system

60 60 Integration and Installation u Space in tunnel and underground areas is limited u Equipment for many systems need to be installed u 3-D computer model for tunnel and underground areas

61 61 Conclusions The LHC is installed and commissioned in eight (rather) independent sectors - that allows for activities to be performed in parallel Installation of LHC started with general services March 2002 l Civil engineering is nearly completed l Most contracts with industry for equipment supply have been awarded l Fabrication of equipment under the responsibility of other labs goes well Planning can now be based on deliveries and contractual documents

62 62 Conclusions Fabrication of equipment Installation of completed components Very thorough commissioning of the hardware systems starting in 2005, sector by sector, as key for successful fast start up with beam From now to 2006 String 2 gave us a lot of confidence as we observed a smooth commissioning of the hardware systems In 2006 - one beam injected and transported across two sectors (25% of the ring) Start-up with two beams in spring 2007

63 63 29 Oktober 2002Rüdiger Schmidt LHC injector complex - pre-accelerators exist

64 64 Transfer Lines SPS - LHC Two new transfer line tunnels from SPS to LHC are being built. The beam lines use normal conducting magnets Length of each line: about 2.8 km Magnets are all available, made by BINP / Novosibirsk Commissioning of the first line for 2004 Dipole magnets waiting for installation

65 65 Accelerator physics and operation u Dynamic aperture of 11 sigma: for all magnets the maximum tolerated multipoles were specified u Preparations based on very well controlled slow ramp with PELP function (parabolic, exponential, linear and parabolic) u Accurate modelling of beam dynamics through the cycle u Magnetic multipoles u Dynamic effects in superconducting magnets u Beam beam effects - head on / parasitic crossings u Preparation of slow feedback for tune and orbit, and possibly chromaticity - prototyping at the SPS u Online magnetic measurements (multipole factory) for feed-forward to corrector circuits

66 66 Powering and Quench Protection u Almost 1800 circuits from 60 A to 24 kA distributed around the 27 km LHC accelerator => 1800 Power Converter u The eight sectors of the LHC are largely independent - accurate tracking of current is required u Very high performance is needed for the 24 main circuits with main dipole and quadrupole magnets at I = 12 kA u For the main circuits the current needs to be controlled at the ppm level (12 mA at 12 kA) u Protection of 8000 magnets, 1800 High Temperature Superconductor current leads, and a large number of superconducting bus bars

67 67 Machine protection: Machine protection: Magnet energy Energy in dipole magnets: 10 GJoule … per sector reduced to 1.3 GJoule Uncontrolled release of energy is prevented: Fire quench heaters Current by-passes magnet via power diode Extract energy by switching a resistor into the circuit - the resistor with a mass of eight tons is heated to 300 °C All components of the system have been validated, and production started (part in collaboration with Russia and India) 13 kA switches from Protvino Russia
