Design Studies for the Low-beta Quadrupoles for the LHC Luminosity Upgrade

In this paper we outline the present status of the design studies for the high luminosity LHC, focusing on the choice of the aperture of the inner triplet quadrupoles. After reviewing some critical aspects of the design as energy deposition, shielding, heat load and protection, we present the main t...

Sumario:In this paper we outline the present status of the design studies for the high luminosity LHC, focusing on the choice of the aperture of the inner triplet quadrupoles. After reviewing some critical aspects of the design as energy deposition, shielding, heat load and protection, we present the main tentative parameters for building a 150 mm aperture Nb$_{3}$Sn quadrupole, based on the experience gathered by the LARP program in the past several years.
