Popis: Luminosity is to be produced at the SSC collider by crossing with finite angle the counter circulating proton beams at each interaction point (IP). Such a crossing angle introduces unwanted dispersion in the high beta triplet quadrupoles adjacent to the IPs which must be corrected out. We propose to produce variable crossing conditions at each IP with local steering dipoles adjusted to give required slopes and displacements for each IP. The anomalous dispersion introduced by these orbit displacements will be corrected in the arcs (dispersive region) just prior to entry and exit into the IPs with opposite polarity quadrupole pairs separated by 90/spl deg/ in phase, a "late" correction scheme. Such pairs cause minimal change to the betatron functions but produce dispersion that can be set to cancel the anomalous dispersion. The IP design is such that the phase advance between correctors and the IP triplet gives efficient full local anomalous dispersion cancellation. The proposed system is to be formed from standard SSC corrector elements and will provide the range of crossing conditions required for collision optics and for separating the beams at injection. >
