LHC MD 3165: RF power limitations at flat bottom

This note describes the power measurements at flat bottom with the half-detuning beam-loading scheme in the LHC performed with the aim to provide the basis for the extrapolation of the present RF power margins for Run 3 and the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). Due to the unavailability of HL-LHC beam c...

Sumario:This note describes the power measurements at flat bottom with the half-detuning beam-loading scheme in the LHC performed with the aim to provide the basis for the extrapolation of the present RF power margins for Run 3 and the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). Due to the unavailability of HL-LHC beam currents for testing in the present LHC, as well as to the large error bars on power measurements, the maximum RF power available is estimated by determining the maximum RF voltage that can be maintained under several scenarios.
