A precise determination of the fi function at different locations of an accelerator is crucial for optics correction and high machine performance. By introducing the same phase advance as an additional constraint in the K-modulation algorithm, the limitations of the technique are mitigated, leading to more accurate measurements.
A precise determination of the fi function at different locations of an accelerator is essential to allow accurate optics correction and to ensure high machine performance. The fi function can only be measured directly at locations where beam position monitors are installed. For other locations, we rely on a K-modulation technique. However, this technique presents some limitations resulting in imprecise fi values when the phase advance between the modulated quadrupole and the observation point is separated by 90 degrees. To mitigate these limitations, we have introduced the same phase advance as an additional constraint in the K-modulation algorithm. In this paper, the improvement of the fi measurement uncertainty is quantified for different optics configurations for both, the LHC and the proton synchrotron (PS) booster. The new algorithm is used to reanalyze measured data during van der Meer scans for luminosity calibration providing significantly more accurate results than obtained previously. Moreover, in the PS booster, this improvement has also reduced the uncertainty of the fi function at different locations of the machine.
