Abstract |
Electron lenses are proposed as a way to mitigate head-on beam-beam effects for the LHC upgrade. An extensive effort was put together within the US LARP in order to develop numerical simulations of beam-beam effects in the presence of electron lenses. In this report the results of beam-beam simulations for RHIC and LHC are presented. The effect of electron lenses is demonstrated and sensitivity of beam-beam compensation to imperfections is discussed. |
