| Abstract | Within the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) project, LHC injectors received major upgrades that resulted in an unprecedented beam brightness. In the framework of the Physics Beyond Colliders (PBC) study, the full potential of the upgraded injectors is being explored for the improvement of the Fixed Target (FT) beams as well. This contribution details recent studies on beam transmission and beam quality along the injectors of the SPS Fixed Target PROton (SFTPRO) beams for the North Area (NA) experiments. In particular, possibilities of tailoring the transverse emittances out of the PSB and the impact on the beam transmission in the SPS are shown. Furthermore, the impact of the transverse damper excitation on the efficiency of the Multi-Turn-Extraction in the PS are discussed. Finally, the main factors that limit the intensity reach of the injectors are also discussed. |
