Motivation

This workshop will be the first of its kind, originating from a current need of DA optimization at several accelerator projects, including the EIC, FCC-ee, light sources, and more. It will be the first occasion to discuss the latest developments in state0-of-the-art DA optimization that has been held in many years.

Latest theoretical and experimental developments are of high relevance for Brookhaven's next collider project, the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), to reach its required performance in any of its rings, the HSR, the ESR, the RCS, and possibly the REC.

Furthermore, the workshop program will include discussion of studies towards the Future Circular Collider (FCC) planned at CERN, and of several light sources, including an upgrade to BNL's NSLS. In person discussion and presentation related to recent theoretical, computational and experimental advances as well as discovered challenges will provide important input to the development of all these accelerators.

Topics to Cover

EIC DA optimizations, including EIC, HSR, RCS, and the REC using differential beam dynamics for AI/ML optimization tools
FCC-ee DA optimization
Light sources, e.g. NSRL-II, PETRA 4, NSLS-II and upgrades, APS, ALS
Dynamic aperture and lifetime optimization in design and during operation
Injection optimization in design and during operation
Resonant extraction optimization in design and during operation
SuperKEKB DA, measurements and simulations
LHC RDTs / DA measurements and corrections, including long range beam-beam
Design and optimization of HL-LHC and FCCee DA including imperfections and realistic tuning simulations
Large computing campaigns and novel DA exploration techniques including ML in Xsuite
Online/real-time DA optimizations on operational machines
