/ Vigano, William (CERN) ; Zamantzas, Christos (CERN) ; Effinger, Ewald (CERN) ; Meyer, Jean Michel (CERN) ; Michelis, Stefano (CERN)
CERN’s Beam Instrumentation Group is developing a mini-crate to host the future Beam Loss Monitor (BLM) and Beam Positioning Monitor (BPM) systems acquisition electronics at HL-LHC and SPS accelerators. For this purpose, a new power supply has been designed to meet the low noise requirements, high reliability, and availability standards for these harsh radioactive environments. [...]

Liverpool (main) ; Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech.) ; Wolfenden, Joseph (U. Liverpool (main) ; Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech.)
An optical beam loss monitor (oBLM) has recently been installed at the slow extraction region of the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) at CERN. The oBLM offers a new method for detecting beam losses at the SPS by utilizing the Cherenkov radiation emitted during beam loss interactions with an optical fibre. [...]

Upgrade and evolution of the ad target beam imaging system at CERN: a two-year performance analysis
/ Burger, Stephane (CERN) ; Roncarolo, Federico (CERN) ; Martínez Samblas, Javier (CERN) ; Gonzalez-Berges, Manuel (CERN)
During CERN’s Long Shutdown 2 (LS2) in 2022, the Anti-Proton Decelerator (AD) target area underwent major renovations, including a significant upgrade to its beam imaging system. The previous tube-based camera, used in a high-radiation environment, had limitations in sensitivity and resolution for continuous measurements.The upgraded design uses an innovative in-air light-emitting screen mechanically coupled to the AD target, monitored by a digital camera through a 20-meter optical line from a radiation-safe zone.

The Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) beam loss monitoring (BLM) system at CERN, operational for several decades, currently comprises 286 Ionisation Chambers (ICs) around the SPS ring and approximately 144 additional detectors along various extraction lines (TT20, TT40, TT60, etc.). A complete renovation of the system is planned during Long Shutdown 3 (LS3), encompassing detectors, cabling, and acquisition electronics. [...]

Performance study of Fast Beam Current Transformer calibration in the LHC
/ Marafuz Gaspar, João (CERN ; Lisbon, CFTP) ; Levens, Thomas (CERN) ; Alves, Diogo (CERN) ; Gasior, Marek (CERN) ; Lasocha, Kacper (CERN)
Fast Beam Current Transformers (FBCTs) are essential devices for measuring bunched beam intensities in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). A cross-calibration of these devices against DC Beam Current Transformers (DC-BCTs) is used in the LHC ring, but this method relies on assumptions that introduce inaccuracies. [...]
