  At the CERN accelerator complex, it seems that only the highest energy machine in the sequence, the LHC, with space charge (SC) parameter close to one, sees the predicted beneficial effect of SC on transverse coherent instabilities. In the other circular machines of the LHC injector chain (PSB, PS and SPS), where the SC parameter is much bigger than one, SC does not seem to play a major (stabilising) role, and it is maybe the opposite in the SPS. All the measurements and simulations performed so far in both the SPS and LHC will be reviewed and analysed in detail.

  The design efforts for the High Luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) and for the FCC-ee project required significant extensions of the MAD-X code widely used for designing and simulating particle accelerators. The modelling of synchrotron radiation effects has recently been reviewed, improved and tested on the lattices of ESRF, LEP and CLIC Final Focus System. The results were cross checked with the codes AT, PLACET, Geant4, and MAD8. The implementation of space charge has been drastically restructured in a modular design. The linear coupling calculation has been completely reviewed and improved, from the theory to the implementation in MAD-X code to ensure its correctness in the presence of strong coupling as in the HL-LHC studies. The slicing module has been generalised to allow for thick slices of bending magnets, quadrupoles and solenoids. The SBEND element has been extended to support difference between bending angle and integrated dipole strength. Patches have been added to the list of supported elements. MAD-X PTC has also been extended to track resonance driving terms along layouts, and to support AC dipoles to simulate beams during optics measurements.
