Crystal collimation of heavy-ion beams / Redaelli, Stefano (CERN) ; Mazzolari, Andrea (INFN, Pisa) ; Abramov, Andrey (CERN) ; Lechner, Anton (CERN) ; Lindstrom, Bjorn (CERN) ; Mirarchi, Daniele (CERN) ; Matheson, Eloise (CERN) ; Potoine, Jean-Baptiste (IES, Montpellier) ; Dewhurst, Kay (CERN) ; Bandiera, Laura (INFN, Pisa) et al.
An important upgrade programme is planned for the collimation system of Large Hadron Collider (LHC) for lead–ion beams that will already reach their high-luminosity target intensity upgrade in the LHC Run 3 (2022-2025). While certain effects like e-cloud, beam-beam, impedance, inject and dump protection are relaxed with ion beams, halo collimation becomes a challenge, as the conventional multi-stage collimation system is about two orders of magnitude less efficient than for proton beams.

The status of the FCC-ee optics tuning / van Riesen-Haupt, Léon (Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; Franchi, Andrea (ESRF, Grenoble) ; Faus-Golfe, Angeles (IJCLab, Orsay) ; Chance, Antoine (Paris, CEA) ; Dalena, Barbara (Paris, CEA) ; Järmyr Eriksson, Carl (CERN) ; Carli, Christian (CERN) ; Garcia Jaimes, Cristobal Miguel (Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; Shatilov, Dmitry (CERN) ; Musa, Elaf (DESY) et al.
With a circumference of approximately 91 km, the Future Circular electron-positron Collider, FCC-ee, aims for unprecedented luminosities at beam energies from 45.6 to 182.5 GeV. A major challenge is reaching its design performance in the presence of magnet misalignments and field errors. [...]

Simulations of incoherent effects driven by electron clouds forming in the inner triplets of the Large Hadron Collider / Paraschou, Konstantinos (CERN) ; Iadarola, Giovanni (CERN) ; Mether, Lotta (CERN)
During Run 2 and Run 3 of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), slow losses from electron cloud (e-cloud) effects have been systematically observed during the full duration of fills with closely-spaced proton bunches. In particular, these effects had been found to depend strongly on the crossing angle of the two beams and the value of the betatron functions in the interaction points. [...]

Review of MAD-X for FCC-ee studies / Simon, Guillaume (CERN ; IJCLab, Orsay) ; Faus-Golfe, Angeles (IJCLab, Orsay) ; van Riesen-Haupt, Léon (Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; De Maria, Riccardo (CERN) ; Pieloni, Tatiana (Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne)
The design of the electron-positron Future Circular Collider (FCC-ee) challenges the requirements on optics codes (like MAD-X) in terms of accuracy, consistency, and performance. Traditionally, MAD-X uses a transport formalism by expanding the transfer map about the origin up to second order to compute optics functions and synchrotron radiation integrals in the TWISS and EMIT modules.

Probing FCC-ee energy calibration through resonant depolarization at KARA / Zimmermann, Frank (CERN) ; Keintzel, Jacqueline (CERN) ; Mueller, Anke-Susanne (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Haerer, Bastian (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Blomley, Edmund (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Huttel, Erhard (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Steinmann, Johannes (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Gethmann, Julian (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Ruprecht, Robert (KIT, Karlsruhe) ; Pieloni, Tatiana (Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) et al.
The FCC-ee collider physics program requires a precise determination of the center-of-mass energy. The average energies of the two colliding beams can be measured by resonant depolarization (RDP) of polarized electron and positron bunches. [...]

Status of the synchrotron radiation studies in the interaction region of the FCC-ee / André, Kévin (CERN) ; Holzer, Bernhard (CERN) ; Boscolo, Manuela (Frascati)
The FCC-ee is a proposed high-luminosity circular electron-positron collider which will have beam energies spanning from 45.6 to 182.5 GeV, and will radiate up to 50 MW of synchrotron radiation power per beam. The lattice design upstream of the interaction point is based on weak dipoles and long straight sections combined with a 30 mrad crossing angle. [...]

Update of the PLACET2 code for the low-energy acceleration stages of the muon collider / Desire Valdor, Paula (CERN ; U. Groningen (main)) ; Latina, Andrea (CERN) ; Stechauner, Bernd (CERN ; TU Vienna) ; Costa, Raul (Uppsala U. (main))
This work describes improvements made to the tracking code PLACET2 to make it possible to simulate the acceleration from 250 MeV to 63 GeV in a future muon collider. This software was selected because of its unique ability to optimally simulate recirculating linacs, which are part of the proposed layout for this initial muon acceleration stage. [...]

Searching for the best initial beam parameters for efficient muon ionization cooling / Stechauner, Bernd (CERN ; TU Vienna) ; Fol, Elena (CERN) ; Rogers, Chris (Rutherford) ; Schieck, Jochen (Vienna, OAW ; TU Vienna) ; Schulte, Daniel (CERN)
Ionization cooling stands as the only cooling technique capable of efficiently reducing the phase space of a muon beam within a short time frame. The optimal cooling parameters of a muon collider aim to minimize transverse emittance while simultaneously limiting longitudinal emittance growth, resulting in optimal luminosities within the collider ring.

First studies on error mitigation by interaction point fast feedback systems for FCC-ee / Salvesen, John (CERN ; JAI, UK) ; Zimmermann, Frank (CERN) ; Burrows, Philip (JAI, UK)
During operation, the Future Circular electron-positron Collider (FCC-ee) will be subject to vibrations from mechanical sources and ground motion, resulting in errors with respect to the closed orbit. To achieve physics performance, luminosity and beam lifetime must be kept to design specifications. [...]
