abstract = {At present, the beam-based alignment of the LHC collimators
is performed by touching the beam halo with both jaws of
each collimator. This method requires dedicated fills at low
intensities that are done infrequently and makes this
procedure time consuming. This limits the operational
flexibility, in particular in the case of changes of optics
and orbit configuration in the experimental regions. The
performance of the LHC collimation system relies on the
machine reproducibility and regular loss maps to validate
the settings of the collimator jaws. To overcome these
limitations and to allow a continuous monitoring of the beam
position at the collimators, a design with jaw-integrated
Beam Position Monitors (BPMs) was proposed and successfully
tested with a prototype (mock-up) collimator in the CERN
SPS. Extensive beam experiments allowed to determine the
achievable accuracy of the jaw alignment for single and
multi-turn operation. In this paper, the results of these
experiments are discussed. The non-linear response of the
BPMs is compared to the predictions from electromagnetic
simulations. Finally, the measured alignment accuracy is
compared to the one achieved with the present collimators in
the LHC.},
