Electron Cooling of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider: Overview Ilan Ben-Zvi Collider-Accelerator Department Brookhaven National Laboratory I. Ben-Zvi, 2nd EIC Workshop, March 15-17, 2004 Motivation • The motivation for electron cooling of RHIC is to increase luminosity by reducing emittance and overcoming IBS. – Increase the integrated luminosity for gold on gold collisions by an order of magnitude, also higher P-P luminosity (RHIC II). – Increase the luminosity of protons and ions on electrons and shorten ion bunches (eRHIC) • Both RHIC II and eRHIC are on the DOE’s 20 years facilities plan. RHIC luminosity decay (3.5 hours) I. Ben-Zvi, 2nd EIC Workshop, March 15-17, 2004 IP#12 - main IP#10 - optional Linac-ring eRHIC: IP#2 - optional Main-stream - 5-10 GeV eUp-gradable to 20+ GeV e- Luminosity up to 1 x 1034 cm-2 sec-1 per nucleon IP#4- optional RHIC Booster AGS I. Ben-Zvi, 2nd EIC Workshop, March 15-17, 2004 What is special about cooling RHIC The cooling takes place in the co-moving frame, where the ions and electrons experience only their relative motion. RHIC ion are ~100 times more energetic than a typical cooler ring. Relativistic factors slow the cooling by at least factor of 2. So, first and foremost, we must provide a factor of 2 more cooling power than typical. Other points: Cooling of a bunched beam, cooling of a collider, recombination and disintegration, use of a high-temperature electron beam. Transport of a magnetized (angular momentum dominated) beam without a continuous solenoid. We cannot use conventional accelerator techniques. We require a highenergy (54 MeV), high-current (0.1 to 0.3 A) electron beam for the cooler, based on an Energy Recovery Linac. I. Ben-Zvi, 2nd EIC Workshop, March 15-17, 2004 R&D issues • High current, energetic, magnetized, cold electron beam. Not done before – Photoinjector (inc. photocathode, laser, etc.) – ERL, at x100 the current of current JLAB ERL – Beam dynamics study (magnetized beam AND space-charge AND discontinuous solenoid) • Understanding the cooling physics in a new regime, must reduce uncertainty – bunched beam, recombination, IBS, disintegration – electron cooling simulations with some precision • A very long, super-precise solenoid (30 m long, 1-2 Tesla, 8x10-6 error) I. Ben-Zvi, 2nd EIC Workshop, March 15-17, 2004 Structure of the RHIC Electron Cooling R&D Electron cooling R&D Experimental R&D Theory / simulations ERL Linac cavity Guns Laser, photocathodes Benchmarking experiments Beam dynamics Also: Cost and schedule.
