The discovery by the ATLAS and CMS experiments of a new boson with mass around 125 GeV measured properties compatible those Standard-Model Higgs boson, coupled absence discoveries phenomena beyond Standard Model at TeV scale, has triggered interest in ideas for future factories. A circular e+e- collider hosted 80 to 100 km tunnel, TLEP, is among most attractive solutions proposed so far. It clean experimental environment, produces high luminosity top-quark, W Z studies, accommodates multiple...
The electron-positron collider DAPhiNE, the Italian Phi factory, has been recently upgraded in order to implement an innovative collision scheme based on large crossing angle, small beam sizes at point, and compensation of beam-beam interaction by means sextupole pairs creating a "crab-waist" configuration region. Experimental tests novel exhibited increase factor 3 peak luminosity with respect performances reached before upgrade. In this Letter we present new scheme, discuss its advantages,...
Numerical simulations have shown that a recently proposed 'crabbed waist' scheme of beam-beam collisions can substantially increase the luminosity collider. In this paper we give qualitative explanation why works. For purpose use simple geometrical considerations and analyze peculiar properties vertical motion modulations by synchrotron horizontal betatron oscillations. It is in these modulations, which are main sources resonances excitation, significantly suppressed. Some numerical examples...
The Future Circular Collider study, which aims at designing post-LHC particle accelerator options, is entering in the final stage, foresees a conceptual design report containing basic requirements for hadron and lepton collider, as well options an electron-proton machine. Due to high beam intensities of these accelerators, collective effects have be carefully analyzed. Among them, finite conductivity vacuum chamber represents major source impedance electron-positron collider. By using...
We applied frequency map analysis (FMA)---a method that is widely used to explore dynamics of Hamiltonian systems---to study beam-beam effects in a novel crab waist collision approach. The ``crab'' focusing colliding beams results significant suppression betatron coupling resonances induced by interaction. Application FMA provides visible information about all working resonances, their widths, and locations the planes tunes amplitudes, so process due crabbing clearly seen. However, our...
Knowledge of the electromagnetic interaction between a beam and surrounding vacuum chamber is necessary in order to optimize accelerator performance terms stored current. Many instability phenomena may occur machine because fields produced by acting back on itself as feedback device. Basically, these produce an extra voltage energy gain, affecting longitudinal dynamics, transverse momentum kick which deflects beam. In this paper we describe main features with typical components.
The Future Circular Collider FCC-ee is a study toward high luminosity electron-positron collider with centre-of-mass energy from 91 GeV to 365 GeV.

For the past generation ${e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ storage ring colliders, we usually used natural bunch length or its impedance lengthened value in beam-beam simulations instead of considering directly. In future such as FCC-ee and CEPC, interaction becomes essentially three dimensional. order to increase luminosity, accelerators will collide very intense beams high energy with low emittances small beta functions at collision points exploiting crab waist scheme a large Piwinski angle....

Abstract Capacitive beam position monitors (BPM) are widely used as diagnostics tools in particle accelerators. Typically due to a large number of BPM an accelerator, their contribution the coupling impedance cannot be neglected. In addition broadband part at low frequencies, exhibits resonant peaks higher frequencies electromagnetic fields trapped around button and feedthrough assembly. Coupling these with spectrum lines can result overheating. this paper, we discuss design optimization...
Abstract Beam-beam interaction in FCC-ee can be seriously affected by the vacuum chamber coupling impedance resulting a safe tune areas reduction, shifts and spread, bunch length energy spread variation. The interplay of two effects has drastic impact on stability colliding bunches respectively achievable luminosity. In this paper, beam-beam collisions with 4 points are studied including updated transverse longitudinal impedances.
The effects of an electron cloud ($e$-cloud) on beam dynamics are one the major factors limiting performances high intensity positron, proton, and ion storage rings. In electron-positron collider DA\ensuremath{\Phi}NE, namely, a horizontal instability due to electron-cloud effect has been identified as main limitations maximum stored positron current source quality deterioration. During last machine shutdown in order mitigate such instability, special electrodes have inserted all dipole...
