Sumario:It is important to collect all the relevant information to qualify the present status of the electron cloud in the SPS before the Long Shutdown (LS1). Therefore several electron cloud studies have taken place in the SPS during the 2012 run. At the beginning of the running period, five days were fully dedicated to electron cloud activities and scrubbing studies. After that, a few more MD sessions were devoted to following up on the studies started in the scrubbing week. These results, in combination with detailed simulation studies, will provide the basis for defining strategies of electron cloud mitigation as required for the production of future high intensity and high brightness beams within the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) project.
