Status of the CLIC RTML Studies

Over the last months the general layout of the CLIC ring to main linac transport (RTML) has stabilized and most important lattices have been designed. This allowed us to study their performance and to start studies of tolerances on magnetic stray fields and on magnet misalignment. Additionally, beam lines could be improved in terms of performance and flexibility. We discuss the overall layout as will be described in the CLIC conceptual design report, highlight the improvements which have been made and show results of tolerance studies.

CLIC BDS Tuning, Alignment and Feedbacks Integrated Simulations

The CLIC BDS tuning, alignment and feedbacks studies have been typically performed independently and only over particular sections of the BDS. An effort is being put to integrate all these procedures to realistically evaluate the luminosity performance.

Start-to-End Tracking Simulations of the Compact Linear Collider

We present the current status of the beam tracking simulations of the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) from the exit of the damping ring to the interaction point, including the ring to main linac (RTML) section, main linac, beam delivery system (BDS) and beam-beam interactions. This model introduces realistic alignment survey errors, dynamic imperfections and also the possibility to study collective effects in the main linac and the BDS. Special emphasis is put on low emittance transport and beam stabilisation studies, applying beam based alignment methods and feedback systems. The aim is to perform realistic integrated simulations to obtain reliable luminosity predictions.
