The new fast extraction system in LSS6 of the SPS and the first 100 m of transfer line TT60 was commissioned with low intensity beam in late 2006. The layout and functionality of the main elements are briefly explained, including the various hardware subsystems and the control system. The systems safety procedures, test objectives and measurements performed during the beam commissioning are described.

In the framework of the LIU project, new septa magnets have been designed between CERNs PS booster (PSB) extraction and PS injection. The upgraded devices are to deal with the increased beam energy from 1.4 to 2 GeV at extraction of the PSB. The direct drive recombination septa in the PSB transfer line to the PS and the eddy current PS injection septum together with a bumper at injection have been investigated using finite-element software. For the recombination magnets, an increase in magnet length is sufficient to obtain the required deflection; however, for the PS injection elements, a more novel solution is necessary to also achieve increased robustness to extend the expected lifetime of the pulsed device. The injection septum will share the same vacuum vessel with an injection bumper, and both magnets will be located adjacent to each other. The new PS injection magnet will be the first septum operated at CERN based on eddy current technology. The magnetic modeling of the devices, the comparison of the performance of the present 1.4-GeV devices with the predictions for the upgraded 2-GeV devices, and the solutions retained to achieve the field requirements are described in this paper.

The CERN PS Booster project foresees the injection of 160 MeV H- ions into the booster from Linac 4. For this substantial upgrade, a system of 5 pulsed magnets (BIDIS) and 3 vertical septa (BISMV) will distribute the Linac pulses into the four-vertically separated Booster injection lines before being injected into the rings. This paper describes the magnetic calculations and the design concept that will be used in the future upgrade of the BISMV. Subsequently the mechanical design of the septa and their integration into the existing transfer line will be discussed.
