Setting Up Simulations of Failure Scenarios for a Crab Cavity in the Nominal LHC

The crab cavity (CC) represents a possible solution for the problem of the reduction of the luminosity due to a crossing angle. The CC apply a transversal kick on the beam particles that varies with the longitudinal position along the bunch in order to produce an effective head-head collision and to...

description The crab cavity (CC) represents a possible solution for the problem of the reduction of the luminosity due to a crossing angle. The CC apply a transversal kick on the beam particles that varies with the longitudinal position along the bunch in order to produce an effective head-head collision and to increase the geometry luminosity. For that reason the BE-ABP group at CERN has been performing studies for the implementation of the CC in the LHC. Because machine protection is a critical element of LHC operation, it is essential to study the failure scenarios of the superconducting crab cavity and the possible resulting damage impact and well as to find possible mitigation measures. For this purpose we set up simulation tools to model CC failures in the nominal LHC.
