Injection septa position and angle optimisation in view of the 2 GeV liu upgrade of the CERN PS

In the framework of the LHC Injector Upgrade (LIU)project the CERN PS injection kinetic energy will be up-graded from 1.4 to 2 GeV. The injection equipment, whichis already operating close to its limit, is being redesigned tocope with 30% increase in the beam rigidity. In this paper wepresent the ex...

Sumario:In the framework of the LHC Injector Upgrade (LIU)project the CERN PS injection kinetic energy will be up-graded from 1.4 to 2 GeV. The injection equipment, whichis already operating close to its limit, is being redesigned tocope with 30% increase in the beam rigidity. In this paper wepresent the experimental results from Machine Development(MD) studies on the present septum to explore its operationalhardware limits with respect to aperture restrictions, beamlosses and kick strengths in view of the LIU upgrade
