Starting with my first experience of the transverse feedback damper in the KEK 12 GeV PS in 2006, where we tested with analog system and in addition digital controller from SPring-8 team. Since then, digital systems have come to cover almost all the machines. In J-PARC MR bunch-by-bunch transverse feedback system had been introduced with a collaboration at the proton beam power around 150 kW...
The LHC is approaching the end of its third operational run, with machine protection and performance having demanded an excellent control of the single-particle dynamics. Additionally, the requirement to rapidly commission multiple diverse sets of optics configurations within each year, and from year-to-year, placed clear demands on the measurement and correction methods employed. Tight...
