III.3 — Introduction to CERN and its accelerator complex / Fernandez, R. A. (CERN)
The CERN accelerator complex has evolved over nearly 70 years, from the first 16 m circumferencemachine in 1957, the Synchrocyclotron, to the most powerful synchrotron in the world to today, theLHC, with 27 km circumference. In between, a series of machines were designed, installed andcommissioned and most of them are still in operation serving, with an impressive zoo of particles,the very rich and diverse physics programmes carried out at CERN.

Next‐Generation Electron Linear Accelerators for Compact Accelerator‐Driven Neutron Sources / Wroe, L M (CERN) ; Olivares‐Herrador, J (CERN) ; Wuensch, W (CERN) ; Latina, A (CERN) ; Stapnes, S (CERN)
Global access to neutron scattering is under increasing pressure as research reactors close and demand for spallation sources outpaces supply. Compact accelerator‐driven neutron sources (CANSs) offer a pathway to more distributed access, yet current designs are often limited by scale, cost, and performance, and no turnkey solutions presently exist. [...]

Coupling local and global rf feedback loops for macroparticle tracking simulations / Karlsen-Baeck, B E (Rome U. ; CERN) ; Argyropoulos, T (CERN) ; Flowerdew, J (CERN) ; Intelisano, L (CERN) ; Karpov, I (CERN) ; Lasheen, A (CERN) ; Timko, H (CERN)
Radio frequency (rf) control loops are vital components for the optimal operation of rf systems in synchrotron particle accelerators. Modeling these systems in macroparticle tracking simulations provides improved understanding of the complex interaction between the control loops, the beam-induced voltages in the rf cavities, and the circulating beam.

Development of radiation-tolerant beam imaging via multimode fiber and synthetic data-driven machine learning / Xu, Q (Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech. ; CERN ; U. Liverpool (main)) ; Zhang, H D (Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech. ; U. Liverpool (main)) ; Trad, G (CERN) ; Hill, A (Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech. ; U. Liverpool (main)) ; Roncarolo, F (CERN) ; Welsch, C P (Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech. ; U. Liverpool (main))
Transverse beam profile monitoring in high-radiation areas is challenging due to camera degradation. A proposed solution employs a multimode fiber (MMF) to relay optical signals from the radiation zone to a shielded area, where a standard CMOS camera can operate safely. [...]

Development and Characterization of a Radiation-Tolerant Power Supply for Beam Instrumentation / 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. [...]
