Effect of Alignment Errors and Orbit Correctors on the Interaction Region of the FCC-hh

The Future Circular Collider (FCC) design study aims to develop the design of possible circular colliders in the LHC era. In particular the FCC-hh will aim to produce proton-proton collisions at a center of mass energy of 100 TeV. The interaction region has been designed to meet the requirements in terms of energy and luminosity. However, as it is the case in any real accelerator, misalignments in the magnets are likely to occur; the effect of these misalignments, if not properly compensated for, can jeopardize the performance of the machine. This study contemplates alignment and field errors in the interaction region in order to estimate the tolerance necessary to provide a good correction measured in terms of deviation of the orbit and strength of the correctors.
