In order for the LHC to reach an ultimate luminosity goal of 1035, CERN is considering upgrade options for the LHC injector chain, including a new 50 GeV synchrotron of about 1.3 km length for protons and heavy ions, to be called the PS2. In this ring the proton energy is ramped from 4 GeV in 1.2 s, and the design (proton) current is 2.7 A. The present baseline of the vacuum system considers elliptical stainless steel chambers bakeable up to 300°C, various coatings to mitigate electron cloud are under study. For a bare stainless steel or Inconel chamber, the resistive wall wake alone will lead to multi-bunch instability, whereas for transverse mode coupling (TMCI), the threshold is above the design beam current, though this instability may become an issue once other impedance contributions are taken into account. A copper layer of varying thickness is shown to raise the TMCI threshold but to have relatively little effect on the multi-bunch resistive-wall growth rate unless the coating is very thick. We are also studying the effect of the copper coating on the penetration of the guide field during the energy ramp, which sets an upper limit on the allowable thickness.

We present a conceptual design for a polarimeter based on Compton scattering of laser light on the electron beam for the Super-B accelerator proposed for Frascati, Italy. The accelerator design has polarized electrons in the low-energy ring (4.18 GeV). We want to measure the polarization of every bunch every few seconds using a laser with 119 Mhz repetition rate. The spin rotator section has a second point between the solenoids and interaction point where the polarization is nearly longitudinal with helicity opposite to that found at the interaction point. We plan to use this point to measure the polarization as the possible location near the interaction point has too much background from the collision. We show the area in the accelerator where the polarimeter would be installed and describe the laser as well as the detectors for the Compton scattered electrons and photons.

The availability of longitudinally polarized electrons is an important aspect of the design of the proposed SuperB project at LNF Frascati. Spin rotators are an integral part of the design of the Interaction Region (IR). We have chosen a solenoid-dipole design; at the 4.18 GeV nominal energy this is more compact that a design purely based on dipole magnets. Integration with the local chromaticity correction of the ultra-low beta* IR has been achieved. The spin rotators are symmetric about the Interaction Point, this design saves a significant amount of length as the dipoles become a part of the overall 360 deg. bend. The layout leaves limited opportunity to setup the optics for minimum depolarization; this is acceptable since beam life time in SuperB at high luminosity is only about 5 min and up-to 90% polarized electrons will be injected continuously. In this way an average beam polarization of about 70% is maintained. Simulations and analytic estimates with the DESY code SLICKTRACK and other codes indicate such operation is feasible from a spin-dynamics point of view. The paper will discuss the overall spin-rotator design as well as the spin dynamics in the ring.

A new proton synchrotron, the PS2, is under design study to replace the the current proton synchrotron at CERN for the LHC upgrade. Nonlinear space charge effects could cause significant beam emittance growth and particle losses and limit the performance of the PS2. In this paper, we report on studies of the potential space-charge effects at the PS2 using three-dimensional self-consistent macroparticle tracking codes, IMPACT, MaryLie/IMPACT, and Synergia. We will present initial benchmark results among these codes. Effects of space-charge on the emittance growth, especially due to synchrotron coupling, and the aperture sizes will also be discussed.

The SuperB project is an international effort aiming at building in Italy a very high luminosity e+e- (1036 cm-2 sec-1) asymmetric collider at the B mesons cm energy. The accelerator design has been extensively studied and changed during the past year. The present design, - based on the new collision scheme, with large Piwinski angle and the use of 'crab' sextupoles, which has been successfully tested at the DAPHNE Phi-Factory at LNF Frascati, - provides larger flexibility, better dynamic aperture and in the Low Energy Ring spin manipulation sections, needed for having longitudinal polarization of the electron beam at the Interaction Point. The Interaction Region has been further optimized in terms of apertures and reduced backgrounds in the detector. The injector complex design has been also updated. A summary of the design status, including details on lattice and spin manipulation will be presented in this paper.
