5. 5 Recent activity of CARE-HHH (2/2) oApril 2005: second meeting on LHC upgrade with ATLAS and CMS physicists (8 participants). Items discussed:  possible IR upgrade scenarios and implementation,  identification of a team to estimate high luminosity effects of interaction debris on the superconducting triplets. oMay 2005: second meeting of the Pulsed Magnet Working Group with 19 participant (http://pmwg.web.cern.ch/PMWG/2nd%20meeting.htm).http://pmwg.web.cern.ch/PMWG/2nd%20meeting.htm The main goals were:  define an inventory of resources (tooling and personnel) who may become available.  review the present activity and identify possible synergies within presently available resources.  discuss the organization of the CARE-HHH-AMT workshop in Frascati (October 2005).

Scandale, title: “possible scenarios for the LHC upgrade”, http://care- hhh.web.cern.ch/CARE-HHH/LUMI- 05/Organization/Arcidosso/LiteratureForLumi05.html.http://care- hhh.web.cern.ch/CARE-HHH/LUMI- 05/Organization/Arcidosso/LiteratureForLumi05.html oAugust 2005: completion of the preparation of the Workshop on "Scenarios for the LHC luminosity upgrade", Arcidosso, 31/08- 3/09/2005: http://care-hhh.web.cern.ch/CARE-HHH/LUMI-05/.http://care-hhh.web.cern.ch/CARE-HHH/LUMI-05/

8. 8 In Preparation Topics:  (i) optical designs and luminosity performance for alternative IR layouts (dipole first vs quadrupole first (Nb-Ti or Nb 3 Sn) vs ironless magnet at very low ß*,  (ii) beam-beam compensation schemes and machine-experiment interface),  (iii) machine and magnet parameters for high energy injectors: lattice, magnet aperture, injection and extraction for new ring in the ISR tunnel, super-SPS with new transfer lines, or booster ring in the LHC tunnel.

9. 9 In Preparation Topics  summarise the requirements from particle physics, accelerator upgrades and other fields (e.g. hadron therapy) to define a set of parameters for the development of pulsed superconducting magnets for accelerators;  translate the above requirements in specifications for the performance of strand, cable, magnet and auxiliaries (i.e. cryogenics, power supplies, instrumentation, measurement systems);  define the R&D required to achieve the above specifications and produce a tentative road-map for a procurement and prototyping activity. CARE-HHH-AMT Workshop on Superconducting Pulsed Magnets for Accelerators (ECOMAG-05) in Frascati (Italy) during the week from 24 to 28 October, 2005. This workshop aims at giving a technological follow-up to the CARE-HHH- APD Workshop (LHC-LUMI-05, Arcidosso, August 2005).
