  The Accelerator Test Facility 2 (ATF2) has already demonstrated the feasibility of Final Focus Systems based on the local chromaticity correction scheme and its focusing capabilities by reaching a vertical beam size at the virtual Interaction Point (IP) of less than 50 nm. The value of the chromaticity in ATF2 is comparable with the expected chromaticity in ILC, but 4 times lower than in a design of CLIC. ATF2 gives the unique possibility to test operation at CLIC chromaticity values by reducing the vertical beta function at the IP by a factor of 4 (the inverse proportionality of chromaticity with beta function value at IP is assumed). The experience collected in this way would be beneficial for both ILC and CLIC projects. Simulations show that the multipolar errors and Final Doublet fringe fields spoil the IP beam sizes at ATF2. Either increasing a value of the horizontal beta function or installing a pair of octupole magnets mitigate the impact of these aberrations. This paper summarizes the studies towards the realization of the ultra-low β* optics in ATF2 and reports on the progress of the construction of the octupoles.

Beam Delivery Simulation (BDSIM) is a particle tracking code that simulates the passage of particles through both the magnetic accelerator lattice as well as their interaction with the material of the accelerator itself. The Geant4 toolkit is used to give a full range of physics processes needed to simulate both the interaction of primary particles and the production and subsequent propagation of secondaries. BDSIM has already been used to simulate linear accelerators such as the International Linear Collider (ILC) and the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC), but it has recently been adapted to simulate circular accelerators as well, producing loss maps for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). In this paper the most recent developments, which extend BDSIM's functionality as well as improve its efficiency are presented. Improvement and refactorisation of the tracking algorithms are presented alongside improved automatic geometry construction for increased particle tracking speed.

  Long periodic transport channels are frequently used in accelerator complexes and suggested for using in high-energy ERLs for electron-hadron colliders. Without proper chromaticity compensation, such transport channels exhibit high sensitivity to the random orbit errors causing significant emittance growth. Such emittance growth can come from both the correlated and the uncorrelated energy spread. In this paper we present results of our theoretical and numerical studies of such effects and develop a criteria for acceptable chromaticity in such channels
