LHC MD 2042: Persistent Injection Oscillations

This MD note summarizes the measurements performed to study persistent longitudinal oscillations after injection into the LHC. It was found that they build up due to mismatch, and can lead to particle losses and uncontrolled bunch lengthening. For the first time, profile measurements and ObsBox data acquisitions were triggered at injection to obtain first-turn data. The measurements took place on 16th September 2017 between 14:30 and 19:30, and between 27th November 2017 20:00 and 28th November 2017 04:00
