Abstract

The superconductive quarter wave cavities hadron linac ALPI is the final acceleration stage at the Legnaro National Laboratories. It can accelerate heavy ions from carbon to uranium up to 10 MeV/u for nuclear and applied physics experiments. It is also planned to use it for re-acceleration of the radioactive ion beams for the SPES (Selective Production of Exotic Species) project. In this article, we will present the innovative results obtained with swarm intelligence algorithms, in simulations and measurements. In particular, the increment of the longitudinal acceptance for RIB (Radioactive Ion Beams) acceleration, and beam orbit correction without the beam first-order measurements will be discussed.
