Head-on beam-beam compensation has been implemented in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider order to increase luminosity delivered experiments. We discuss principle of combining a lattice for resonance driving term and an electron lens tune spread compensation. describe technology its operational use.

Top-up injection is an essential ingredient for the future circular lepton collider (FCC-ee) to maximize integrated luminosity and it determines design performance. In ttbar operation mode, with a beam energy of 175 GeV, lifetime ∼1 h shortest four anticipated operational modes, may be even shorter in actual operation. A highly robust top-up scheme consequently imperative. Various methods are investigated number suitable schemes considered developing alternative designs straight section...
Two electron lenses ($e$-lenses) have been in operation during the 2015 RHIC physics run as part of a head-on beam-beam compensation scheme. While lattice was chosen to reduce beam-beam-induced resonance-driving terms, reduced tune spread. This has demonstrated for first time. The scheme allows higher parameters and therefore intensities luminosity. In this paper, we detail design considerations verification beam $e$-lenses. Longitudinal transverse alignments with ion beams transfer function...

Top-up operation was recently introduced at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) to provide constant beam current line users. This mode of involves frequent injections that can be source significant perturbations on stored beam. Beam lines running experiments with a timescale longer than injection period may impacted by such perturbations. The ESRF storage ring systems and layout were not designed allow for transparent injection, i.e., without visible These are driven directly...

Significant magnetic cross talks were observed between neighboring magnets on the Extremely Brilliant Source (EBS) low emittance storage ring. The main sources for these are short longitudinal distances magnets, which reach 47 mm in some cases. It affects mainly dipole bending angles and quadrupole gradients.
