Chapter 3 in High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) : Preliminary
Design Report. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is one of the largest scientific
instruments ever built. Since opening up a new energy frontier for exploration
in 2010, it has gathered a global user community of about 7,000 scientists
working in fundamental particle physics and the physics of hadronic matter at
extreme temperature and density. To sustain and extend its discovery potential,
the LHC will need a major upgrade in the 2020s. This will increase its
luminosity (rate of collisions) by a factor of five beyond the original design
value and the integrated luminosity (total collisions created) by a factor ten.
The LHC is already a highly complex and exquisitely optimised machine so this
upgrade must be carefully conceived and will require about ten years to
implement. The new configuration, known as High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC), will
rely on a number of key innovations that push accelerator technology beyond its
present limits. Among these are cutting-edge 11-12 tesla superconducting
magnets, compact superconducting cavities for beam rotation with ultra-precise
phase control, new technology and physical processes for beam collimation and
300 metre-long high-power superconducting links with negligible energy
dissipation. The present document describes the technologies and components
that will be used to realise the project and is intended to serve as the basis
for the detailed engineering design of HL-LHC.Comment: 19 pages, Chapter 3 in High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC)

Power Test of the First Two HL-LHC Insertion Quadrupole Magnets Built at CERN
The High-Luminosity project (HL-LHC) of the
CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), requires low β* quadrupole
magnets in NbSn technology that will be installed on each side
of the ATLAS and CMS experiments. After a successful shortmodel magnet manufacture and test campaign, the project has
advanced with the production, assembly, and test of full-size 7.15-
m-long magnets. In the last two years, two CERN-built prototypes
(MQXFBP1 and MQXFBP2) have been tested and magnetically
measured at the CERN SM18 test facility. These are the longest
accelerator magnets based on NbSn technology built and tested
to date. In this paper, we present the test and analysis results
of these two magnets, with emphasis on quenches and training,
voltage-current measurements and the quench localization with
voltage taps and a new quench antenna
Conceptual Design of the LHC Interaction Region Upgrade: Phase-I
The LHC is starting operation with beam. The primary goal of CERN and the LHC community is to ensure that the collider is operated efficiently and that it achieves nominal performance in the shortest term. Since several years the community has been discussing the directions for maximizing the physics reach of the LHC by upgrading the experiments, in particular ATLAS and CMS, the LHC machine and the CERN proton injector complex, in a phased approach. The first phase of the LHC interaction region upgrade was approved by Council in December 2007. This phase relies on the mature Nb-Ti superconducting magnet technology with the target of increasing the LHC luminosity to 2 to 3 10^34 cm^-2s^-1, while maximising the use of the existing infrastructure. In this report, we present the goals and the proposed conceptual solutions for the LHC IR Upgrade Phase-I which include the recommendations of the conceptual design review
