 The Hadron Sinchrotrons Single particle effect section:

Is responsible for optics design and development of CERN’s circular hadron colliders and accelerators, present and future.

Studies the mechanical aperture and magnetic field imperfections of the machines as installed and their effects on beam dynamics.         

Carries out experimental and theoretical beam physics and design studies aimed at improving the performance of CERN’s circular hadron colliders and accelerators, present and future, in particular in terms of beam losses management.

Defines parameters, strategies and measurement procedures for initial beam commissioning and regular operation in collaboration with other sections and groups.

Provides coordination and support during both commissioning and routine operation. 

Hosts the Project coordination and studies for the LHC collimation system and its upgrade.

Hosts the coordination and studies of present and future operation of the LHC for nuclear collisions.

Hosts the coordination of studies for the PS-LIU project.

Is responsible, develops and maintains software tools for beam physics, accelerator design and operation.

Contributes to European-funded networks and studies.

Provides expertise in advisory bodies for accelerators at other laboratories.

Provides expertise for educational and outreach activities.
