Abstract :
The collimation systems of the International Linear Collider (ILC) Beam Delivery System (BDS) must perform efficient removal of halo particles which lie outside the acceptable ranges of energy and spatial spread. An optimisation strategy based on earlier work is applied to the latest version of the BDS lattice. The resulting improvement in collimation performance is studied by halo tracking simulations, and the luminosity performance of the optimised lattice is also examined.
