Non-interleaved FFS design

The requirements on the Final Focusing System (FFS) for a new linear collider has lead to lattice designs where chromaticity is corrected either locally or non-locally. Here, we present the status of an alternative lattice design developed for the current CLIC 500GeV beam parameters where chromaticity is corrected upstream the Final Doublet (FD) and the geometrical components in the vertical plane are corrected locally. The diagnose of this design showed to possible variations two the lattice : the second order dispersion and its derivative with respect to $s$ must be cancelled before the FD, or some dispersion must be tolerated at the sextupole located inside the FD.Comment: Talk presented at the International Workshop on Future Linear Colliders (LCWS14), Belgrade, Serbia, 6-10 October 201

2D-Oide effect

The Oide effect considers the synchrotron radiation in the final focusing quadrupole and it sets a lower limit on the vertical beam size at the Interaction Point, particularly relevant for high energy linear colliders. The theory of the Oide effect was derived considering only the radiation in the focusing plane of the magnet. This article addresses the theoretical calculation of the radiation effect on the beam size consider- ing both focusing and defocusing planes of the quadrupole, refered to as 2D-Oide. The CLIC 3 TeV final quadrupole (QD0) and beam parameters are used to compare the theoretical results from the Oide effect and the 2D-Oide effect with particle tracking in PLACET. The 2D-oide demonstrates to be important as it increases by 17% the contribution to the beam size. Further insight into the aberrations induced by the synchrotron radiation opens the possibility to partially correct the 2D-Oide effect with octupole mag

IntentsKB: A Knowledge Base of Entity-Oriented Search Intents

We address the problem of constructing a knowledge base of entity-oriented search intents. Search intents are defined on the level of entity types, each comprising of a high-level intent category (property, website, service, or other), along with a cluster of query terms used to express that intent. These machine-readable statements can be leveraged in various applications, e.g., for generating entity cards or query recommendations. By structuring service-oriented search intents, we take one step towards making entities actionable. The main contribution of this paper is a pipeline of components we develop to construct a knowledge base of entity intents. We evaluate performance both component-wise and end-to-end, and demonstrate that our approach is able to generate high-quality data.Comment: Proceedings of the 27th ACM International Conference on Information and Knowledge Management (CIKM'18), 2018. 4 pages. 2 figure

CLIC 3 TeV Beam size Optimization with Radiation Effects

TUPWO003 - ISBN 978-3-95450-122-9International audienceHorizontal beamsize contribution due to radiation on bending magnets is calculated using theoretical results and recent improvements in mapclass (Mapclass2). In order to verify the code and validity of its approximations, a simple lattice with no geometrical nor chromatic aberrations, one dipole and a final drift has been used to compareMapclass2 calculations and Placet tracking results. CLIC 3TeV lattice is optimized including the radiation effects. Current results show that correction of chromatic aberrations impose constraints in radiation improvement
