A Candidate Low Emittance Lattice for LEP at its Highest Energies

Several low emittance lattices have been proposed for LEP at its highest energies in order to reduce the horizontal beam size and bring the beam-beam limit within reach. However, optics with high phase advance per cell tend to have strong tune dependence on amplitude that can reduce the dynamic aper...

Sumario:Several low emittance lattices have been proposed for LEP at its highest energies in order to reduce the horizontal beam size and bring the beam-beam limit within reach. However, optics with high phase advance per cell tend to have strong tune dependence on amplitude that can reduce the dynamic aperture and the beam lifetime, possibly limiting the maximum beam energy or creating operational difficulties. Recently an optics with a phase advance of 17p/30 in the horizontal and p/2 in the vertical plane was developed. This optics has a significantly smaller detuning with amplitude. The results of experiments on this optics are compared with expectations and some details of the first operational experience with this lattice are presented. The potential performance at maximum energy is discussed.
