Responsibilities Develop the FCC-hh lattice, ensuring compatibility with FCC-ee optics and optimizing energy reach.
Analyze the impact of multipolar field errors at various injection energies.
Contribute to an alternative FCC-hh optics design using combined-function magnets, focusing on controlling the three emittances affected by radiation damping and intrabeam scattering.
Evaluate and enhance beam dynamics simulation tools, incorporating key effects like radiation damping.
Explore strategies for luminosity optimization, including lower beam currents or luminosity energy leveling.
Support FCC-ee optics development, investigating the feasibility of stable islands for top-up injection and assessing Higgs optics performance using nonlinear observables.
Examine the potential benefits of an FCC-ee combined-function magnet optics approach.

About Us At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. Using the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments, they study the basic constituents of matter - fundamental particles that are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives physicists clues about how particles interact and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature. Find out more at home.cern .
