Feed-forward in the Lhc

چکیده
The LHC operational cycle is comprised of several phases such as the ramp, the squeeze and stable beams. During the ramp and squeeze in particular, it has been observed that the behaviour of key LHC beam parameters such as tune, orbit and chromaticity is highly reproducible from fill to fill. To reduce the reliance on the crucial feedback systems, it was decided to perform fill-to-fill feedforward corrections. The LHC feed-forward application was developed to ease the introduction of corrections to the operational settings. The LHC Feed-Forward software has been used during LHC commissioning and tune and orbit corrections during ramp and squeeze have been successfully applied. As a result, the required real-time corrections for the above parameters have been reduced to a minimum. In parallel, successful trials have been made to apply feedforward corrections before commissioning with beam which are based on MAD-X simulation scans over the unused setting functions. In this paper we present the evolution of feedforward for the LHC and discuss further improvements of this software.

متن کاملRole of Neural Networks in the Search of the Higgs Boson at Lhc
We show that neural network classifiers can be helpful to discriminate Higgs production from background at LHC in the Higgs mass range MH ∼ 200GeV. We employ a common feed-forward neural network trained by the backpropagation algorithm for off-line analysis and the neural chip Totem, trained by the Reactive Tabu Search algorithm, which could be used for on-line analysis.

Supervisor’s feedback is both a naysaying and a puzzling concern that has always tormented academics in higher education. Particularly, written feedback on pre-final or final versions of a submitted doctoral dissertation is indisputably the most significant step toward granting a doctoral student supervisee the right to defend his/her research project. It also constitutes a rich source on how s...
