Noise Analysis and Variance Reduction of Continuous Impedance Measurements of Energized Superconducting Magnets / Christensen, Magnus Bøgh Borregaard (CERN ; Aalborg U.) ; Koch, Peter (Aalborg U.) ; Podzorny, Tomasz (CERN) ; Østergaard, Jan (Aalborg U.)
Superconducting magnet impedance measurements are vital for assessing magnet health and electrical integrity. To fur- ther enhance monitoring capabilities beyond contemporary meth- ods that largely rely on manual intervention, recent efforts have focused on enabling in situ and continuous measurements during magnet operation.

Application of distributed temperature sensor for fire and cryogenic leak detection in accelerator tunnels / Dole, Michael (CERN) ; Di Francesca, Diego (CERN) ; Nissen, Henrik (CERN) ; Blanc, Jeremy (CERN) ; Bremer, Johan (CERN) ; FERNANDEZ, Julien (CERN) ; Dufay-Chanat, Laetitia (CERN) ; Contini, Lorenzo (CERN) ; Van de veire, Matthias (CERN) ; Rios, Oriol (CERN) et al.
High-energy accelerators like CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) present hazards characterized by temperature variations such as cryogenic leak or fire. Considering that LHC tunnels are large, underground, and radioactive areas, alternatives to traditional systems are explored to improve hazard detection. [...]

Investigating ion beam loss mechanisms at the SPS flat bottom / Waagaard, Elias (CERN ; Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; Soubelet, Felix (CERN) ; Bartosik, Hannes (CERN) ; Paraschou, Konstantinos (CERN)
The long injection segment (flat bottom) of the cycle in the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) used for filling the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with Pb ion beams, exhibits strong beam losses and transverse emittance growth. During the 2024 run, large improvements of the beam transmission could be made such that record intensities could be delivered to the LHC. [...]

Towards ATF3: Beam based alignment (DFS, WFS) corrections in the ATF LINAC and ATF2 beamline / Korysko, Pierre (Oxford U.) ; Latina, Andrea (CERN)
The Accelerator Test Facility 2 (ATF2) serves as a critical platform for testing technologies and techniques aimed at advancing the next generation of linear colliders. The ATF2 is composed of a linear accelerator (LINAC), a damping ring, and an extraction line that includes a high-precision final focus system designed to achieve the small beam sizes necessary for future collider experiments.

Following the LHC Injector Upgrade programme (LIU) there has been a gradual ramp-up of the intensity of LHC beams in the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS). This was initially hampered by vacuum issues in several critical components, such as RF cavities and kicker magnets, requiring extensive scrubbing campaigns to condition these components. [...]

Readiness of the HEARTS@CERN facility for space electronics high-energy heavy-ion testing / Söderström, Daniel (CERN) ; Huschauer, Alexander (CERN) ; Waets, Andreas (CERN) ; Mikulec, Bettina (CERN) ; Grenier, Damien (CERN) ; Prelipcean, Daniel (CERN) ; Cotte, Denis (CERN) ; Johnson, Eliott (CERN) ; Ravotti, Federico (CERN) ; Pezzullo, Giuseppe (CERN) et al.
The HEARTS@CERN activity in the framework of the HEARTS (High-Energy Accelerators for Radiation Testing and Shielding) EU project is targeted at enhancing Europe’s high-energy (>100 MeV/n) heavy ion electronics irradiation capability through the development of an irradiation beam combining unique penetration and ionization characteristics. These types of tests are essential for exploiting commercial electronics in space.Throughout 2024, the HEARTS@CERN efforts have focused on achieving and demonstrating compliance with the space user radiation effects testing requirements.
