Experience with DAFNE Upgrade Including Crab Waist
Milardi, C.
In 2007 DAFNE was upgraded to operate in a regime of large Piwinski angle, with a novel interaction region optics, reduced vertical beta at the interaction point, and additional sextupoles providing for Crab-Waist collisions. The specific luminosity has been boosted by more than a factor of four at low currents, and the present peak luminosity is by about a factor of 3 higher than the maximum value obtained with the original collider configuration. The DAFNE commissioning as well as the first ex... Show Full Abstract
In 2007 DAFNE was upgraded to operate in a regime of large Piwinski angle, with a novel interaction region optics, reduced vertical beta at the interaction point, and additional sextupoles providing for Crab-Waist collisions. The specific luminosity has been boosted by more than a factor of four at low currents, and the present peak luminosity is by about a factor of 3 higher than the maximum value obtained with the original collider configuration. The DAFNE commissioning as well as the first experience with large Piwinski angle and Crab-Waist collisions scheme will be reported. Show Partial Abstract
