  1. Proposal for validation of LHC magnet data Per Hagen (TE/MSC) FiDeL Working Group17.02.2009 Personal reflections based uponpractical work experience in 2008

  2. Stage 1 - Analysis • The data to be validated is expressed in REFPARM format • The magnet expert (author of data) is assisted during compilation of REFPARM coefficients in order to reconstruct the original curves for TF(i, t) and harmonics(i, t) • Propose that a co-author does some cross-checks of the analysis of measurement data because easy to introduce errors which are not detectable FiDeL 17.02.2009

  3. Stage 2 - Publishing Officially FiDeLised • The REFPARM goes through a formal validation process to become the reference • It will include a checking tool to guard against informatics issues and completeness wrt LHC layout • The REFPARM data is stored in Oracle • There is a concept of APPROVED version • Older versions will be kept for traceability. It should be possible to easily generate data for “LHC2008”, “LHC2009” circuits FiDeL 17.02.2009

  4. Stage 3 – LSA validation • The REFPARMs, optics and cycle data are processed by the LSA control system to produce B(t), I(t) for circuits and a few correction demands, like MB b2, b3, b4, b5 • I propose to validate these by a separate tool like the FiDeL code in WISE • There is now a tool to dump LSA settings • When there are significant differences we need further transparency to individual FiDel components for the circuits / magnets FiDeL 17.02.2009

  5. Stage 4 – offline model • The FiDeL code in WISE can be used for generating the MADX field error tables • The cross-checks between LSA and WISE FiDeL should ensure consistency MADX vs LSA • The WISE FiDeL model contains more details than LSA; estimate of most harmonics, and by magnet FiDeL 17.02.2009

  6. Conclusion • Start now with FiDeL work because real problems are only detected at the end of the processing chain, and the loop must start over again… • In 2008 we discussed issues with • Measurement pre-cycles vs machine cycles • FiDeL model ( I -> 0.0 A, need for asymmetryTF(+i) <> TF(-i) • Optics sometimes causing unreasonable low current (further fine-tuning of optics) • Polarity issues LSA vs “as connected” (not addressed by FiDeL) • Sufficient time for validation FiDeL 17.02.2009
