This paper presents the groundbreaking implementation of simultaneous tune and coupling feedback during the RHIC Run 6, marking a milestone in accelerator research. Acknowledging contributions from key figures like Tom Shea and teams from BNL C-AD, it discusses system architecture, the 3D AFE's sensitivity to beam noise, and the complexities of maintaining feedback during ramping. The findings open avenues for further developments in simultaneous feedback mechanisms, enhancing performance in future LHC operations.

Set and Measured Tunes • Measured tunes • The ‘eigenvalues’ – physical observables • Rotated from H and V by coupling • Set tunes • What tune would be in the absence of coupling • dQmin – forbidden zone • complicates tune control without feedback • breaks feedback • can be calculated with knowledge of coupling BIW 2006

3D AFE ‘beam noise’ • Beautiful when looking at amplitude • Very sensitive ~10nm • Resistant to dynamic range problems (bunch length, beam offset,…) • But, when you put it in a phase loop…. • Possible sources • Beam loss • High frequencies - longitudinal ‘hot spots’ • Low frequencies • quadrupole cryostat vibrations • mains harmonics • Instabilities (weak – not noticed by anything except 3D AFE) • Long range beam-beam BIW 2006
Immediate plans • Further investigation of ‘beam noise’, and how to cope with this • Chromaticity measurement and feedback • Movement of the system into the CERN architecture – DAB board BIW 2006
Conclusions • World’s first implementation of simultaneous tune and coupling feedback is successful • The door remains open for simultaneous tune, coupling and chromaticity feedback at LHC BIW 2006
