Tuning-Based Design Optimization of CLIC Final Focus System at 3 TeV

International audienceThe tuning aims to mitigate static imperfections of the Final Focus System (FFS) for emittance preservation at the Interaction Point (IP). A simulation campaign on the nominal CLIC FFS at 3 TeV have shown the need of rethink the design in order to ease the tuning of the machine. The goal is to optimize the lattice in order to make the FFS more tolerant to misalignments by reducing the strength of the sextupoles. The tuning efficiency is promoted as figure of merit to find the optimal layout of the FFS. A comparative study of the tuning performances have been performed for two L* options
