1. ACTIVITY REPORT: EXPLANATION OF THE WORK CARRIED OUT BY THE BENEFICIARIES AND OVERVIEW OF THE PROGRESS

1.1. WP1 ORGANISATION

The management, coordination and implementation work package (WP 1) comprises all activities

required to adequately set up and coordinate the work and to assure the quality of the planned

deliverables. It includes managerial and administrative tasks as well as the technical coordination to

come to an unanimously agreed set of baseline parameters as the technical work progresses. Based on

experience from previous large-scale projects and seeking ties with similar intergovernmental

agencies, implementation and governance scenarios will be evaluated. All these activities are

complemented with a rigorous communication and innovation management program that builds on

successful predecessor EC projects. This work package produces a Conceptual Design Report (CDR)

as the main outcome of the study. The WP includes 6 tasks:

Task 1.1: Study management

Task 1.2: Quality management

Task 1.3: Communication, dissemination and outreach

Task 1.4: Knowledge and innovation management

Task 1.5: Coordinate technical scope

Task 1.6: Develop implementation and cost scenarios

1.1.1. Task 1.1: Study management

The coordinator has assumed the managerial and financial responsibilities of the project as outlined in

the GA and CA. After project approval, the required management and governance structures were

established and a management kickoff meeting took place from June 3 to 5 at CERN

(http://indico.cern.ch/event/389991 ) to explain the organisation structures, legal framework, finance

guidelines and to develop the work package schedules. The pre-financing was administered and 60%

were re-distributed by CERN as foreseen within the pre-scribed delays. CERN has advised all

beneficiaries on the reporting requirements and to our best knowledge, all consortium partners have

implemented the reporting guidelines adequately. The remaining 40% of the pre-financing will be paid

by CERN as foreseen at Y1.

Regular meetings and internal reviews have been organised by CERN in cooperation with the

consortium partners. CERN has followed-up the deliverable production and verified the contents

against the defined goals.

1.1.2. Task 1.2: Quality management

The FCC study office has been enlarged with a dedicated administrative assistant, who is partially

financed from the H2020 grant. With the help of this person, MS Word document templates were

established. The FCC study office created a collaborative website with (http://eurocircol.eu), which

after login into the CERN domain permits managing documents, financial and activity reports, project

member lists, milestone and deliverable reports. A document quality management scheme is now in

place to help WPs preparing, reviewing and delivering their reports. Internal resource and activity

reports are collected, representing the baseline for the annual and periodic reports.

1.1.3. Task 1.3: Communication, dissemination and outreach

A communication and outreach strategy document has been submitted in December 2015 in line with

the description of the task (https://fcc.web.cern.ch/eurocircol/Pages/WP1.aspx ). The report aims to

inform any future communication & outreach related actions related to the FCC study and dependent

project including EuroCirCol:

A new public website that serves as a single-point entry and gives more information about the different

aspects of the FCC study is now available: http://fcc.web.cern.ch. A French version is currently in

preparation.

Communication material and media related to the FCC study have been developed including

Figure 1 impressively shows that already limited paid promotions of Facebook postings result in

manifold (2 to 6 times in the case of the FCC Week 2016) increase of reach (upper part of the image)

and corresponding reactions to the postings (lower part of the image). This means that promoting social

media postings do indeed have a measurable effect and are thus preferred over passive media like

webpages and newspaper articles when it comes to transmitting specific information to specific target

audiences. More detailed information about the Internet and social media campaigns carried out are

found in Annex III - FCC social media impact.

The second annual meeting of the FCC study 2016 was regularly covered on Storify

(http://storify.com/FCC_study) and through the FCC social media channels. In addition a public event

“Machines of Discovery” was organized during the FCC Week 2016 in Rome

(http://fccw2016.web.cern.ch/fccw2016/publicevent.html).

The FCC study office produced a short animation for the FCC week. The animation is available on

1.1.4. Task 1.4: Knowledge and innovation management

The study office has established a relation with the FuSuMaTech

(http://slideplayer.com/slide/7782507) working group led by CEA, who is identifying technology

transfer potentials of novel superconducting magnet technologies developed in the frame of the

FCC/EuroCirCol study (primarily Nb3Sn LTS and MgB2 MTS) for medical and industrial applications.

The working group’s goal is to develop a pan-European roadmap for the development of innovative

superconducting magnets for medical and industrial applications.

The FCC Weeks 2015 (Washington, http://cern.ch/fccw2015) and 2016 (Rome,

http://cern.ch/fccw2016) featured invited presentations from superconductor manufacturers to present

their views on technical feasibilities, industrialisation timeframes and potential markets emerging from

the needs of the accelerator community (ASG, Bruker, Columbus, Luvata, Oxford Instruments,

SuperPower/Furukawa, WST).

An energy frontier hadron collider would require about 9’000 tons of novel superconducting material

for the production of more than 6’000 magnets. Initial R&D at TU Vienna (Austria) on characterising

the microstructure of industrially produced Nb3Sn wires revealed already the potentials to significantly

increase current densities with artificial pinning and a fast characterisation method was developed to

speed up the quality assurance process in industry. For these two findings an early stage researcher at

TUWIEN has been given the FCC Innovation award (https://storify.com/FCC_study/fcc-innovation-

awards).

The most promising use cases for industry adoption include today:

open and single sided, cryogen free MRI (MgB2),

very high field whole body MRI with 16 Tesla magnet (Nb3Sn),

gradient coils for high field MRI beyond 10 Tesla.

1.1.5. Task 1.5: Coordinate technical scope

A layout of the hadron collider (FCC-hh) has been defined (see figure 4). It is consistent with the

implementation in the Geneva area and allows to use of the existing LHC or SPS as injector. The

different functions have been attributed to the straight insertions in this layout, such as experimental

areas, collimation, beam injection and extraction. This has been the basis for the lattice development

in WP 2 and 3 (Milestone M2.2 ‘Preliminary arc optics and lattice files’ at

https://cds.cern.ch/record/2151933/files/CERN-ACC-2016-0032.pdf, and Milestone M3.2

‘Preliminary EIR optics and lattice files’ at https://cds.cern.ch/record/2150692/files/CERN-ACC-

2016-0031.pdf).

The baseline and ultimate parameters for the hadron collider have been defined and documented. This

provided important specifications for the beamscreen and magnet development

(https://cds.cern.ch/record/2150689/files/CERN-ACC-2016-0030.pdf) in WP 4 and 5 and the machine

design in WP 2 and 3.

The layout of the interface between detector and machine has been defined based on the requirements

for the experiment; this provided the basis for the new interaction region lattice design in WP 3.

The studies carried out in WP 2 to 5 until the annual meeting (April 11-15 2016, Rome, Italy) support

the validity of the layout and parameters. Some critical points have been identified, such as beam losses

in the beginning of the arcs around the experimental areas and the collimation. Those will be addressed

by developing a protection system. However, no showstoppers have been identified. In the coming

year the focus will be on addressing the critical points and on an optimisation.

Additionally, a first study has been performed to assess the turn-around time, which has an important

impact on the integrated luminosity. The study showed that a factor two of margin exists between the

theoretically achievable minimum and the target goals.

The injection energy has been reviewed and the baseline choice been confirmed (3.3 TeV). First studies

did not find an unsurmountable obstacle to reduce the injection energy, such that an upgraded,

superconducting Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS+) at CERN could be used as injector. However

further, more detailed studies are required to confirm this scenario.

Figure 4 – Layout of the collider ring

1.1.6. Task 1.6: Develop implementation and cost scenarios

The FCC study office at CERN assessed a framework for cost estimation that has been developed for

the CLIC (Compact Linear Collider) study. Based on the existing cost estimates and interviewing

senior staff, currently the foundations for cost scenarios of the 100 km long hadron collider are created.

The core of the model is a project implementation Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and the first

building blocks currently being elaborated are the Product Breakdown Structures (PBS) for civil

engineering and the superconducting magnets. For the first item, a draft structure exists now and the

second item will be based on the upcoming deliverable D2.1 (CEA, overview of arc design options)

and milestones M2.2 and M3.2. At the same time, the FCC study leader and EuroCirCol PI initiated a

scheduling working group to draft credible implementation scenarios, starting with the civil

engineering efforts and the schedule for large-scale superconducting magnet production.

1.2. WP2 ARC DESIGN

The arc design work package (WP 2) is dedicated to the conceptual design of the largest fraction of

the collider ring. Cost optimisation is of paramount interest, since the high-field superconducting

magnets and in particular the magnet aperture have significant cost impacts. Beam screen aperture is

directly linked to beam size and magnet aperture. Therefore, this WP produces the functional

specifications for WP 4. The study derives field quality specifications for the accelerator magnet design

activities (WP 5), moving technical feasibility into reachable regions. Understanding the behaviour of

novel materials in presence of unprecedented synchrotron radiation levels, understanding novel

techniques such as high-temperature superconductor coatings and seamless construction and

production are major topics of interest to keep cost under control and to achieve reliable operation.

WP includes six tasks:

Task 2.1: Work Package Coordination

Task 2.2: Develop optimised arc lattice

Task 2.3: Study dynamic aperture

Task 2.4: Study single beam current limitation

Task 2.5: Understand and control impact of electron cloud effects

Task 2.6: Develop optics concept for collimation system

The FCC-hh optics was reviewed in November 2015 (http://indico.cern.ch/event/448415/other-

view?view=standard ).

Problems encountered: One of the hired people (Fedor Petrov) in WP2.4 has left for another position.

Corrective actions:

A master student was recruited and a position has been opened to recruit a new person. The recruitment

is ongoing.

Workplan:

Alternatives will be investigated to correct the spurious dispersion. Lattice files will be provided

for the different layout alternatives.

The correction of the beta-beating, of the dispersion beating and of the coupling will be

investigated.

The dynamic aperture studies will go on to refine the field tolerance of the magnets (with

correction schemes of the multipole components).

The impedance studies will go on. The coating (HTS and/or carbon) will be investigated. The

interplay of the impedance and of the electron cloud will be studied.

The overview of the collimation concepts will be made. Some solutions to handle the debris loss

will be proposed.

1.2.1. Task 2.1: Work Package Coordination

The WP2 was established and the hiring was complete.

Injection energy was reviewed in October 2015 (https://indico.cern.ch/event/449449/ ) with a

participation of WP2.2, WP2.3 and WP2.4. A review of the collider ring optics (concerning WP2.2

and WP2.3) and of the beam dynamics was done in November 2015

1.2.2. Task 2.2: Develop optimised arc lattice

A software package based on python was written to automatically generate the lattice of the arcs, to

make the integration of the insertions provided by WP3 (experimental insertions), by WP2.6

(collimation insertions), or programmatically by the code (injection and RF sections). The matching

macros are automatically generated. Different versions of the lattice for the extraction were provided.

The arc cell was optimized [1]. The whole sequence of the collider ring was generated for different

versions of the experimental and collimation insertions and for different values of beta* (collision and

injection regimes). The lattice files were distributed on a versioned repository [2] for the baseline

scenario (see Figure 1). A version with thin elements was made too, enabling the dynamic aperture

studies.

Orbit correction studies have begun. The first results have shown that the orbit can be corrected up to

the level of 0.4 mm (confidence level of 90%) with NbTi technology. The studies are ongoing to

enlarge the error sets and to correct the beta-beating and dispersion beating. The coupling correction

will be investigated in the future.

Macros were provided to tune the collider ring, to correct the chromaticity and to correct the spurious

dispersion generated by the crossing angle. The results have shown that the needed orbit bumps cannot

be accepted. More studies are necessary to validate the correction scheme. Some alternatives to the

HL-LHC scheme will be investigated.

1.2.3. Task 2.3: Study dynamic aperture

The first estimate of the main dipole field quality has been provided by the magnet group [3] and a

preliminary analysis of its impact on the Dynamic Aperture (DA) has been conducted at the baseline

injection energy of 3.3 TeV and at collision energy. The same simulation procedure and input

parameters (such as the fractional part of the tunes and momentum offset) as for the HL-LHC are used,

and magnets misalignment is not considered in simulation [4].

Firstly the SixTrack code has been updated [5] to be able to handle the size of the FCC-hh ring. At the

same time the analysis tool (called SixDesk Enviroment) has been modified in order to handle the 3

digits of the integer part of the tunes, and MAD-X [6] scripts have been developed to generate the

SixTrack inputs.

The optics configurations used in these simulations integrate the same arc cell design but different

insertion region design. In particular, two versions of the interaction region, using different L* and

triplet design are integrated, called v2 [7] and v5 [8]. At collision, we use the ultimate β* of 0.3 m,

while at injection a β* of 3.5 m and 4.6 m is used. Moreover, different momentum collimation optics

have been considered, as soon as they became available.

At injection, without dipole imperfections the DA is above 80σ for each angle explored. As far as the

main dipole field imperfections are considered in the tracking simulations the minimum DA reduces

to 14σ, which is above the target value of 12σ as shown by the blue dots in Fig. 6. The chosen working

point and the first dipole field quality estimates are not critical in terms of DA at the injection energy

of 3.3 TeV. Considering that the DA scales with the square root of the energy, the lower limit for

injection energy, as far as DA is concerned and with the present field quality table, is about 2.6 TeV.

If the dipole field quality degrades with persistent currents at injection energy (up to 15 units of

systematic b3), the minimum DA drops below the target value, as shown by the black dots in Fig. 6,

thus a local correction scheme is needed. We have considered spool piece correctors attached to the

main dipoles, like in the LHC. The light blue dots in Fig. 6 show that the 15 units systematic b3 are

fully corrected using spool pieces correctors placed at each dipole of the arcs, correcting each the

average b3 of the 8 arcs. Furthermore, the corrector strength effectively used for the correction is about

15% of the maximum integrated strength that could be reached by current technology [9]. Finally, one

unit of b5 reduces the average DA by about 3σ, a similar impact is given by a difference of 1° in the

horizontal phase advance of the long arc cell, as shown by comparing black dots and squares with grey

dots in Fig. 6. Moreover, after correcting b3 the minimum DA is already above the target value even

with b5 errors. Therefore, decapole correctors do not seem to be required and no specification is given,

at this stage of the design study.

At collision energy the first estimate of the main dipole field quality strongly reduces DA (below 10σ).

In particular, the negative effect of the systematic b3 value is shown in Fig.7 (by comparing pink and

grey dots). Given the maximum integrated strength reachable by the spool pieces (3 times the LHC

ones), the maximum amount of b3 we can correct is about 6 units [9]. Moreover, in order to ensure

that the arcs have a small impact on the DA at collision (which is already greatly reduced by the triplet

imperfections [10] and beam-beam) it is important to fully correct the systematic component of b3

error. It has been agreed with the magnet group that a maximum value of 3 units is assigned as a target

value for the systematic part of b3 at collision, allowing up to 7 units at injection [9].

1.2.4. Task 2.4: Study single beam current limitation

Recently, the work focused on impedance and wake field simulations for the resistive FCC-hh beam

screen design as well as on electron cloud induced wake fields in bunch trains. A two-dimensional

impedance solver in the frequency domain has been developed and implemented [11, 12]. The solver

has been applied to the geometry of the proposed beam screen, including also the structures behind the

screen. Detailed comparisons of the obtained impedances with simplified models were conducted,

focusing especially on the low frequency part of the resistive wall impedance. The resulting growth

rates for the resistive wall instability were estimated [13].

Furthermore the studies of electron cloud induced wake field in bunch trains were completed [13]. The

results were obtained with a new code OPENECLOUD, which is made available to the public

(https://github.com/openecloud ). The new code provides a more accurate description of the electron

cloud space charge field in complex geometries, like the beam screen. The results for the wake fields

can be used to estimate the growth rates and thresholds for coupled bunch instabilities induced by

electron clouds.

1.2.5. Task 2.5: Understand and control impact of electron cloud effects

Studies of electron cloud build-up, which were previously performed using an elliptical approximation

of the transverse beam screen profile, have been repeated with a more accurate polygonal beam screen

model. In addition to the creation of the polygonal chamber model, this task required some minor

modifications to the simulation software. The effects of varying the secondary emission as well as the

photoelectron yields of the beam screen have been studied, and the consequences for cryogenics and

beam stability have been estimated. The new results, which cover studies for both the 25 ns and 5 ns

beam options, at injection and collision energies, are largely in agreement with previous estimates.

For the injection energy review, electron cloud build-up for different injection energies in the range

0.45 – 5.5 TeV has been studied, taking into account the effect of the corresponding synchrotron

radiation spectrum on the probability of photoelectron production.

Finally, the effect of increasing the bunch intensity, with or without increased transverse beam

emittance, has been studied.

1.2.6. Task 2.6: Develop optics concept for collimation system

The proposed hadron collider will operate at unprecedented per-particle energy (50 TeV) and total

stored beam energies (8.4 GJ). These energies create the requirement for an efficient collimation

system in order to protect the accelerator components and experiments.

A first draft for an optics lattice of the collimation system insertions taking as starting point the LHC

collimation optics insertions has been produced (see Figure 8). The systems has been integrated into

the optics of the collider ring. In order to verify the performance of the proposed collimation system

designs, loss map simulations have been performed using the codes Merlin and Sixtrack for both

betatron and off-momentum loss maps. The collimation system as currently implemented does not

fulfil the required cleaning efficiency required to prevent quenches of the cold superconducting

magnets, especially in the cold dispersion suppressor regions (see Figure 9). Methods are now

currently under investigation to reduce the losses in these critical regions.

1.3. WP3 EXPERIMENTAL INSERTION REGION DESIGN

The experimental insertion region design work package (WP 3) first determines the required

performance of the hadron collider for physics experiment users with a focus on delivering sustained

high-energy, high-luminosity collisions at controlled background conditions. Interaction region and

final focus lattice calculations will lead to refined collider baseline parameters. Once a detailed

functional design is available, studies on beam effects and on particularly critical beamline elements

will be carried out. At the same time, machine detector interface constraints and requirements leading

to particular design concepts and component specifications will be studied. The WP includes 4 tasks:


Task 3.2: Develop interaction region lattice

Task 3.3: Design machine detector interface

Task 3.4: Study beam-beam interaction

Objectives: In this period, we planned to complete the hiring in the group, and work on producing

optics for EIR (milestone of 1 May 2016).

Achievements: The WP achieved the planned objectives. We have all Post-Doctoral Research

Assistants (PDRAs) hired and working on the tasks. The names of PDRA and graduate students

working in the WP include:

CERN: Roman Martin, Andy Langner, Maria Ilaria Besana, Xavier Buffat;

JAI/Oxford: Emilia Cruz Alaniz, Jose Abelleira Fernandez, Leon van Riesen-Haupt;

CI/Manchester: Haroon Rafique;

INFN: Francesco Collamati;

EPFL: Javier Barranco, Jorge Patrik Gonçalves.

The WP team has also achieved the aimed milestone of producing EIR lattices.

Problems encountered: Hiring the PDRAs was not a fast process, as there is larger demand (especially

in the areas we were looking in for experts) than the supply.

ANNUAL REPORT Y1


Date: 01/06/2016


Corrective actions: When we could not hire after the first round of interviews, we had to quickly re-

advertise and make another round of interviews. This worked, and we could make appointments,

although in one case close to the end of the reported period. The appointee will start full time work on

the project in June. This, however, did not affect the overall work plan.

Workplan: Based on the produced EIR optics (Milestone 3.2 at

https://cds.cern.ch/record/2150692/files/CERN-ACC-2016-0031.pdf ), the WP team is now working

on detailed evaluating of EIR design. We will study in particular the present EIR optics in detail, and

also study different options of EIR optics, will carefully evaluate the SR for the present lattice, will

study cross-talk between the experiments in terms of beam losses and background, will study beam-

beam effects and their effect on the collider performance and will also study in detail the energy

deposition issues.


The WP3 coordinators provided overall guidance to the WP, and also cross-coordination to other WPs

and to Machine Detector Interface (MDI) team of FCC-hh detector study group.

A review of the EIR optics and in particular options for the value of L* was performed in November

2015 (http://indico.cern.ch/event/448415/other-view?view=standard).

The EIR lattice was developed (Milestone 3.2 at https://cds.cern.ch/record/2150692/files/CERN-

ACC-2016-0031.pdf). The team considered several different versions of L*, and after discussion with

detector colleagues converged to an optimal value of L* = 45m. The optics is now integrated into

overall optics of the ring. In addition, the team evaluated the necessary strength of orbit correctors in

EIR region. Also, the team is investigating an alternative optimal configuration of the final triplet that

can be used for studies of smaller beta*.

1.3.3. Task 3.3: Design machine detector interface (MDI)

The FCC-hh triplet is exposed to a very high energy deposition level coming from proton-proton

collision debris. This is in fact driving the FCC-hh interaction region design.

In particular the length of the triplet has been recently increased to distribute energy deposition over a

larger mass, reducing the peak dose closer to the design target.

A novel mitigation strategy has been explored consisting in splitting the first quadrupole into two

independent quadrupoles with apertures and fields optimized to mitigate energy deposition. This

demonstrated successful in reducing peak dose by 20% or 30%.

Other mitigation techniques, taken from LHC, are being evaluated, like regularly modifying the

crossing scheme at the IP, yielding also a significant reduction in the peak dose to the triplet. In

addition, the effect of the presence of the detector spectrometer and of its compensator has been

studied. In summary, the goal of a final focus triplet that can survive 5 ab-1 appears to be not far from

reach.

The team also performed SR evaluation in the IR with mitigation studies - this is in progress in INFN-

LNF working in close collaboration with CERN.

First evaluations of SR with the baseline lattice indicate that SR is not a limitation for the Interaction

Region (IR). Detailed studies with the new baseline optics are in progress. The STFC (Manchester/CI)

team is focused studies on the cross-talk between the experiments and the losses in the LSS and arcs,

from 50 TeV on 50 TeV collision debris. The results showed the proton and muon cross-talk should

be acceptable, but the LSS and arc losses are quite high. The work plan is to complete the cross-talk

studies and begin work with INFN on SR in the IR with Manchester computer code that was originally

written for the LHeC study.

The work focused on studying beam-beam constraints and in particular the dynamic aperture and

so far indicated that the Dynamic Aperture (DA) for L* of 45 m is acceptable, while the emittance

growth and effect of noise is still to be studied.

1.4. WP4 CRYOGENIC BEAM VACUUM SYSTEM

The cryogenic beam vacuum system work package (WP 4) develops the technical design concept for

the beam-pipe, based on the requirements and constraints that emerge from the arc design work

package (WP 2). Such a system was pioneered in the LHC as a technological breakthrough. It will be

even more challenging in an energy-frontier hadron-collider. Design concepts will combine state-of-

the-art developments performed for the High Luminosity LHC upgrade with approaches envisaged for

next-generation (4th and 5th generation) synchrotron radiation facilities. Pioneering measurements

under near-operational conditions at the ANKA high-power light source will permit drawing

conclusions on feasibility and performance. This research and a proposal to equip the ALBA

synchrotron radiation facility with a cryogenic facility form the perfect time frame to associate the

particle physics and light source communities in this project. Based on the arc design, computation-

intensive applications will integrate beam-induced dynamic vacuum stability phenomena with

experimental surface material studies. The results will lead to optimized beam-screen designs, whose

compatibility with fast magnetic transitions and cryogenic cooling concepts will have to be ensured.

The WP includes 6 tasks:


Task 4.2: Study beam-induced vacuum effects

Task 4.3: Mitigate beam-induced vacuum effects

Task 4.4: Study vacuum stability at cryogenic temperature

Task 4.5: Develop conceptual design for cryogenic beam vacuum system

Objectives: complete the hiring procedure in November 2015 (milestone M4.1).

Achievements:

The WP achieved the objective of the period, which was to recruit the full manpower for the different

tasks, with the exception of one PhD position, that could not be fulfilled due to the lack of the

appropriate candidate. The position has been opened again and it is expected to be filled in summer

2016.

On the other hand, all tasks have been advancing faster than expected, with a preliminary design of

the beam screen, with first analysis already done on mechanical, thermal, stress and vacuum behavior.

In addition, a first short prototype has been constructed (see Fig. 21).

With respect the surface treatment for electron cloud mitigation and the analysis of the adsorption

isotherms, the corresponding labs have been setup.

The design of the set-up at ANKA has been finalized and the procurement of the needed components

has started.

Problems encountered: one PhD position could not filled due to the lack of the appropriate candidate.

Corrective actions: open again the position and spread the information within the different institutes

in order to find a right candidate; use extra resources at the institutes to cope with the required work to

be done.

Workplan:

1. Develop a computer model of the beam screen and report on the analysis of heat load and photo

electron densities under the assumed operation conditions. Milestone 4.2 due in June 2016.

2. Construct a 2 meters long prototype for the test at the ANKA set-up.

3. Procure all the material needed for the installation at ANKA for the test to determine synchrotron

radiation heat loads and photo-electrons generation inside the beam-screen prototype.

4. Continue with the computer model to determine the mechanical stress, thermal behaviour and

vacuum stability of the beam screen.

5. Analyse different samples with different surface treatment to mitigate the electron cloud effect.

6. Analyse different samples in order to determine the vacuum stability and adsorption isotherms

including the surface treatment.

Deviations: the COLDEX setup mentioned in the original project proposal at CERN was not available

for the experimental set-up at ANKA. Therefore it was decided to design a new set-up, but due to the

time restriction, it will work at room temperature as opposed to cryogenic temperatures. There is no

impact on the analysis to be performed, since material samples can separately be tested at cryogenic

temperatures. N2 temperature is left as a possibility in the next future.

This task is the coordination of the work of all other tasks of this work package and the coordination

with the other work packages.

To this end, there have been several meetings:

Kick off meeting 01 - CERN - June 2015

Coordination meeting 02 - ALBA - August 2015

Coordination meeting 03 - Orsay - November 2015

In addition to 2 technical meetings at ANKA for the design and installation of the test set-up, day to

day work has been followed up by a continuous interchange of information via email.

Coordination with WP2 and WP5 concerning maximum permitted dimensions of the beam screen,

impedance considerations and operation temperature, has been also done with satisfactory agreements.

Figures 14 and 15 – ANKA Setup in 3D

1.4.2. Task 4.2: Study beam-induced vacuum effects

This task is dedicated to the study of the effects on vacuum induced by the beam circulating in the

accelerator. For this task a PhD student (Ignasi Bellafont-Peralta) was incorporated in November 2015

at ALBA, and the software SYNRAD+ and Molflow+ (https://test-

molflow.web.cern.ch/content/about-molflow ) will be used.

In order to crosscheck the validity of the computation with the above mentioned software packages,

the first work is to run simulations compatible with the ANKA setup, which will produce data that can

be verified with measurements. For that, a 3D model has been produced of the experimental set-up

being designed for ANKA, started from the CATIA (http://www.3ds.com/products-services/catia/ )

model and introducing, accordingly, the properties for the reflectivity and materials of the different

surfaces. Including a reflectivity table for stainless steel which can be used with SYNRAD+.

This model is used to study the correct positioning (rotation angle about a vertical axis) necessary to

distribute as uniformly as possible the impinging synchrotron radiation (SR) coming from ANKA

storage ring onto the side wall/longitudinal slot of the beam-screen (BS). The sensitivity of the

experiment to vertical misalignment of the SR fan is being studied now;

Detailed ray-tracing synchrotron radiation (SR) simulations (SYNRAD+) have been run, followed by

test-particle Monte Carlo (MC) simulation runs (Molflow+) simulating the dynamic pressure profile

along the BS prototype and the read-out of gauges at the extremities and in the middle of the BS; the

base pressure profile (static pressure without SR-induced contribution) has been studied as well.

The ongoing work is now modifying the model to replace the ion-pumps with 2000 l/s NEXT or NEG

pumps (with a 30 l/s pumping speed for CH4) and see the effect on the pressure profiles and the

sensitivity of the experiment to changes in the surface conditioning via SR.

1.4.3. Task 4.3: Mitigate beam-induced vacuum effects

The objective of this task is the reduction of the Secondary Electron Yield (SEY) on the vacuum screen

by surface treatment techniques. Two approaches are followed, laser ablation and dual layer NEG

coating. Reduction potentials of SEY were achieved by surface engineering through laser ablation with

a laser operating at lambda = 355 nm. It was shown that the SEY can be reduced to near or below 1 on

copper, aluminium and 316LN stainless steel. The laser treated surfaces show an increased surface

resistance, with a wide variation in resistance found depending on the exact treatment details.

However, a treated copper surface with similar surface resistance to aluminium was produced.

Graphene coated samples are also being studied. The results were presented in IPAC'16

(http://www.ipac16.org/, see paper in publications).

The long term dual layer NEG coating study which started before the start of the EuroCirCol project

has also shown good potential and has been reported at FCC Week at the annual meeting in Rome

(http://fccw2016.web.cern.ch/fccw2016/). The PhD student at STFC, Taaj Sian, has familiarised

himself with the equipment and is writing a LabVIEW-based automation program of measurements

and re-measuring our old sample.

The second PhD student selection procedure is complete. 8 applicants were interviewed; the

Loughborough University should send a conditional offer to a selected candidate to begin in July 2016

1.4.4. Task 4.4: Study vacuum stability at cryogenic temperature

The aim of this task is to determine vacuum stability and adsorption isotherms at different cryogenic

beam-screen operating temperature ranges. For this, a post-doctoral researcher has been recruited by

INFN (Marco Angelucci) in February 2016. He is now familiarizing with the available equipment at

ANNUAL REPORT Y1

LNF and the techniques to be used for the project. He has already performed initial experiments on

various samples.

A closed-cycle refrigeration water circuit has been bought and installed in the laboratory as an upgrade

of the closed-cycle cryostat which will be used routinely for the task. The cryostat manipulator has

been fully refurbished. Tests and temperature calibrations are underway.

In relation with the test set up at ANKA (task 4.6) a post-doctoral researcher has been recruited

(Luis Gonzalez, since February 2016) by INFN who will be in charge of the synchrotron radiation

induced photo desorption studies. For the moment he is researching the scientific challenges to be

mastered.

Figure 18 – BS thermal simulation

1.4.5. Task 4.5: Develop conceptual design for cryogenic beam vacuum system

This task performs the mechanical design of the cryo-magnet beam-screen, ensuring compatibility

with fast magnetic transitions and cryogenic cooling concept. During the period 01 June 2015 to 30

March 2016, the design of the beam screen has been updated with the help of the new engineer project

associated (Miguel Gil Costa) at CIEMAT. It relies on a deflector used to deviate the synchrotron

radiation to an antechamber and to localise the associated outgassing outside the central part of the

screen. Thermal, mechanical and vacuum analyses have been carried out.

Heat transfer of the synchrotron radiation power has been analysed in nominal configuration, i.e. the

beam screen perfectly centred with respect to the beam and also in extreme conditions with an off-

plane beam. Viable cooling approaches of the beam screen have been discussed with experts in charge

of the cryogenic system. It has been found that the present design is compatible with the cryogenic

system constraints (helium pressure, cooling channel geometry).

The integrity of the beam screen during a magnet quench has been assessed. Simple, 2D and 3D with

shell elements, mechanical models have been used to estimate the stress fields and the deformation. A

more complete 3D model, taking into account electro-thermal coupling, is currently being developed

(Javier Fernandez Topham, since March 2016) at CIEMAT.

In addition, a short prototype, 30 cm long, has been manufactured at CERN to validate the different

manufacturing processes. A 2 m long prototype, to be installed at ANKA (task 4.6) will be produced

1.4.6. Task 4.6: Measurements on cryogenic beam vacuum system prototype

The goal of the task is to determine synchrotron radiation heat loads and photo-electrons generation

inside the beam-screen prototype installing it at an experiment in the ANKA synchrotron ring and

exposing the beam-screen prototype to significant levels of synchrotron radiation, comparable to those

expected at the hadron collider.

In the period between 01 June 2015 and 30 March 2016 KIT has prepared the frontend in the ANKA

storage ring, where the test chamber to be provided by CERN will be installed. Photons with similar

energy spectrum and power as expected to impinge on the arc vacuum chamber will be extracted by

one of the ANKA bending magnets using a fixed aperture crotch absorber. An additional photon

intensity absorber and a gate valve have been installed in the front end. The gate valve allows to install

and exchange the EuroCirCol test stand without breaking the vacuum of the ANKA storage ring. In

order to collimate the photons impinging on the beam screen horizontally and vertically a slit system

provided by KIT will be implemented after the gate valve. The setup of the test stand was discussed

together with the colleagues from CERN and CIEMAT at different meetings.

A CAD model of the test stand has been realized. This includes the beam screen model from task 4.5

and several diagnostics components, as pressure gauges, a residual gas analyser, temperature sensors,

and an electrode to be installed in front of a photon collector at the end of the beam screen. For

alignment purposes, two fluorescent screens will be used together with fiducial markers placed on

different elements of the test stand.

1.5. WP5 HIGH-FIELD ACCELERATOR MAGNET DESIGN

The high-field accelerator magnet design work package (WP5) integrates results and ongoing activities

from related FP7 projects on superconducting magnet research into a single, unified work to produce

a performant accelerator magnet with sufficient aperture and good field quality. Initially the work

pursues different design concepts and assesses their relative merits leading to a selection of a preferred

design that will be studied in detail using analytical computation and simulation models. Test results

of advanced superconducting strands and cables form an important ingredient to formulate reliable

statements about the cost and feasibility of such a magnet at to be produced on industrial scales.

Eventually this work will lead to a manufacturing folder including specifications, design drawings,

ancillary system designs and indicated operation conditions. This material will be used to build and

evaluate a short model of the accelerator magnet in a follow-up project. WP includes 7 tasks:


Task 5.2: Study accelerator dipole magnet design options

Task 5.3: Develop dipole magnet cost model

Task 5.4: Develop Magnet Conceptual Design

Task 5.5: Conductor studies

Task 5.6: Devise quench protection concept

Objectives: Field strengths in the order of 16 Tesla as required for a 100 TeV high-energy hadron

frontier collider are much beyond the highest field reached by an accelerator magnet with significant

aperture available today. The target field strength requires novel concepts for conductor configurations

(large current, stable, good winding properties), suitable coil shape (efficient, precise and with

acceptable stress levels) and compact structures, which are compatible with a four-fold increase in the

electromagnetic force with respect to current state of the art. Five elements are considered in this work

package:

1. Explore design options for an accelerator dipole magnet in the range of 16 Tesla;

2. Produce conceptual designs for the most promising options;

3. Develop a calibrated cost model for system optimization studies;

4. Develop a preferred option into a baseline design based on performance merits and cost estimates;

5. Produce the engineering design of the selected baseline configuration, covering all

electromagnetics, mechanical, thermal and operation aspects, including the manufacturing folder

for a short model.

Achievements: all the three design options under consideration (block coil, cosine-theta and common

coil) have been completed as planned under the same boundary conditions and baseline parameters.

These have been presented and discussed on May 11-13th 2016 at the 1st EuroCirCol WP5 technical

review, chaired by Steve Gourlay (LBNL, http://indico.cern.ch/event/516049/ ). The assessment of the

options serve developing a single baseline design by the end of the year 2016. Furthermore, a

preliminary cost model has been established and has been used for a first comparative exploration of

the three options. These important achievements were possible thanks to an intensive activity since the

start of the project in June 2015, with more than ten video-meetings with full participation of all the

partners involved in the WP5, several meetings in persons and the WP5 review of 11-13 May 2016.

Problems encountered: the only significant problem encountered so far has been of technical nature,

coming from the initial target set for the field amplitude margin (18% at 1.9 K). After a detailed study


ANNUAL REPORT Y1


Date: 01/06/2016


it turns out to be too ambitious considering the different boundary conditions, in particular cost and

voltage limits.

Corrective actions: this specific problem was discussed in the WP5 review and a strategy for a

credible adjustment of the parameter space has been set.

Workplan: the three design options under consideration will be further refined in the new parameter

space until the annual EuroCirCol meeting in November. A single baseline solution will be thereafter

considered for the continuation of the study at a 2nd WP technical reviw, schedule to take place in June

2017. The activity is progressing as planned, without delays.

Figure 23 – Summary of options with 18% margin at 1.9 K


During the period since June 2015, specific attention has been given to develop every magnet design

option such that the options can be properly compared. This has been achieved thanks to a continuous

and affective sharing of information, performed 12 video meetings, several meetings and workshops

in person and a technical review.

As a result, there exist no delays, despite the challenging topic that continuously reveals unforeseen

challenges. All events are promptly documented with minutes or technical notes stored in the

EuroCirCol collaborative web site.

1.5.2. Task 5.2: Study accelerator dipole magnet design options

Three design options are under study at different institutes: INFN is working on a cosine-theta model,

CEA on a block model and CIEMAT on a common coil model. CERN coordinates and evaluates the

ongoing design works. The collaboration partners have agreed on initial common parameters as basis

for a fair and meaningful comparison. These parameters include dimensions, cable properties,

electrical and mechanical data. The partners have also agreed on the objectives: superconductor

efficiency, magnetic field quality, quench behaviour and stress distribution. Highest priority has been

given to superconductor efficiency because of the significant price contribution of the superconductor

to the magnet.

During these first year, all designs have made impressive progress. Both 2D magnetic and mechanical

calculations have been done, together with the first quench propagation simulations. Weak points have

been identified. In May 2016, an external review has been made which has provided very useful

feedback and comments on the ongoing work. The next step in this task is the refinement of the present

designs, aiming to overcome or at least, reduce, those weak points.

1.5.3. Task 5.3: Develop dipole magnet cost model

A cost model for the dipole arc magnets is being developed. In the framework of this collaboration a

first analysis of the different cost drivers for the dipole magnets has been developed, in particular for

what concerns magnet aperture, field amplitude, margin and operating temperature. Depending on the

choice of these parameters the overall cost of the dipole arc magnets varies significantly. With the help

of the presented results sound strategic decisions on the choice of these parameters towards cost

effective dipole arc magnets can be taken and this cost model was already useful to take decisions on

the operating temperature and the margin.

The work in this task is shared between CERN, CIEMAT and CEA. CERN is performing the

coordination and has worked on identifying the main cost drivers, CIEMAT is working on a detailed

cost model of all parts required for the magnet structure and CEA is working on a detailed estimate of

the coil winding and assembly costs. The cost estimate of the conductor is not part of WP5.

1.5.4. Task 5.4: Develop magnet conceptual design

This task is scheduled to start at a later point in time.

1.5.5. Task 5.5: Conductor studies

During this period several activities were launched to support the work of magnet designers. A proper

scaling law for the critical current density of state of the art Nb3Sn wires (field and temperature

dependence) has been defined. We established the range of possible values for the: copper-to-non-

copper ratio and diameter of the wires; the maximum number of wires per cable and the maximum

compaction for the thin edge of the cable. The rationale behind these decisions were presented at the

first review of the WP5 program held at CERN in May 2016 (https://indico.cern.ch/event/516049/ ).

We identified the main direction of research for the conductor, to study the effect of large transverse

pressure (above 150 MPa) on Nb3Sn Rutherford cables. The critical current of the conductor will be

measured while applying different values of transverse pressure; strand measurements will be carried

out at the University of Geneva, short samples (about 5 cm) of wide cables (≥10 mm) at Twente

University and long samples (about 60 cm) of narrow cables (≤10 mm) at CERN. CERN cable samples


ANNUAL REPORT Y1

are actually 2 m long but the large transverse pressure and the uniform field act only on the central 60

cm.

1.5.6. Task 5.6: Devise quench protection concept

Since the beginning of the project all the effort has been devoted to provide feedback on the quench

protectability of the different evolution versions of the design options. The basis of the analysis has

been the expected protection efficiency within 40 ms: 20 ms for quench detection, validation and

protection system activation and 20 ms for quenching the entire magnet. The analysis has considered

the hot spot temperatures in the magnet and its voltages. The major feedback for task 2 is the

information if a magnet can at all be protected within these time scales. Especially important is to

know if the copper-to-superconductor ratios in the cables are adequate to prevent too high hot spot

temperatures and if the cable is large enough for the given coil topology to prevent too high voltages.

This communication has resulted in different design options. Each one turns out to be protectable and

have similar hot spot temperatures in case of a quench. This further assists making a credible

comparison of the design options. Towards the end of the period, also special attention has been paid

to analysing how particular designs can be protected. This has included detailed computations of cable-

wise heater delays and considering the quench delay of a coupling loss induced quench (CLIQ)

protection system. These computations have shown that the initial protection efficiency of 40 ms is

very good for rapid analysis of magnets for instant feedback and we are confident that when the magnet

option for detailed study is selected based on the results of Task 2, it can be protected. The results from

the task have been communicated, sometimes on daily basis, with the researchers in Task 2 and

presented in the work package meetings.

1.5.7. Task 5.7: Produce magnet engineering design and manufacturing folder

This activity is scheduled to start at a later point in time.

The table below gives an overview of the engaged person months and financial resources in each work package including matching resources.

Figures in brackets indicate the originally submitted budget estimates for the proposal. It is worth noting that with respect to the initial personnel

costs, significant differences between the estimated and the actual salaries exist at least for CERN personnel that constitutes matching resources.

The reason for this is the allocation of personnel with higher qualifications than originally foreseen.

D1.1 Preliminary collider baseline parameters 01/10/15 Completed

Abstract This deliverable provides a preliminary specification of the layout and target operation parameters for the

FCC-hh hadron collider concept. They serve as starting point for the studies in all work packages.

The goal of the FCC hadron collider is to provide proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of

100 TeV. The machine is compatible with ion beam operation. Assuming a nominal dipole field of 16 T,

such a machine is based on a perimeter of 100 km. The machine is designed to accommodate two main

proton experiments that are operated simultaneously. The machine delivers a peak luminosity of 5-30 x

1034 cm-2s-1. The layout allows for two additional special-purpose experiments.

M1.2 EuroCirCol Kick-off Meeting 01/07/15 Completed

Abstract The Kick-off meeting has taken place from June 2nd to June 4th 2015 at CERN. The meeting was

organized in three parts: the first day was dedicated to giving an overview of the project, the organization

and administration infrastructures and processes. The second day served establishing the governance

structures and the project management established the anchor stones for the project scope, plan and

schedule. June 4th has been dedicated to the coordination meetings of the Work Packages, to elaborate the

working modes of each work package and the integration of the individual work packages, detailing work

plans for the year, establishing the working teams, identifying hiring needs and agreeing on the next

common steps towards the first deliverables. Minutes of the EuroCirCol Collaboration Board and

Coordination Committee constituting sessions have been taken.

Abstract A project Website (http://cern.ch/eurocircol, shortcut http://www.eurocircol.eu) has been established. This

site is both, a public-facing project information site for anonymous visitors and a collaborative work site

for registered and authenticated users. This document gives an overview of the organization, use and setup

of the website.

M1.3 QA, publication and communication plan 01/12/15 Completed

Abstract This document establishes a coherent communications architecture for the FCC study and all dependent

study and R&D projects including EuroCirCol. It puts in place strong networking between partners by

endorsement of the collaboration management to this communication strategy. The purpose of this

document is to foster understanding of the study goals and scope. The communications plan based on this

strategy can thereby generate political, societal and ultimately financial support for the study and associated

R&D programs and support extending the work programme into a preparatory programme. This plan helps

ensuring that FCC and its dependent projects, such as EuroCirCol will be adequately presented to achieve

its strategic goals.

Abstract The scientific Work Packages (WP) 2 to 5 have been established. Work Package leaders and task leaders

have been identified and the technical staff has been appointed. Few positions have not yet been appointed,

since their need arises only at a later stage of the project. This document gives an overview of the assigned

personnel resources and compares them to the original resource estimates.
