Cooling ion beams at high energy is presently considered for several ion colliders, in order to achieve high luminosities by enabling a significant reduction of emittance of hadron beams. Electron beam at cooling channel in a few to tens MeV can be accelerated by a RF/SRF linac, and thus using bunched electrons to cool bunched ions. To study such cooling process, the DC electron gun of EC35 cooler at the storage ring CSRm, IMP was modified by pulsing the grid voltage. A 0.07-3.5 micro-second pulse length with a repetition frequency of less than 250 kHz and synchronized with the ion revolution frequency was obtained. The first experimental demonstration of cooling of a coasting and bunched ion beam by a pulsed electron beam was carried out. Data analysis indicates the bunch length shrinkage and the momentum spread reduction of bunched 12C+6 ion beam as evidence of cooling. A longitudinal grouping effect of the coasting ion beam by the electron pulses has also been observed*. In this paper, we will present experimental results and comparison to the simulation modelling, particularly on the bunched electron cooling data after carefully analyzing the beam diagnostic signals. * L.J.

WEYGBD1 | 12 GeV CEBAF Initial Operational Experience and Challenges | 1771 |
|
||
The 12 GeV Upgrade for the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) achieved CD-4B, or Project Completion, on September 27, 2017. The 13-year $338M project doubled the beam energy of the CEBAF accelerator while also adding a fourth experimental hall. The scope of work for the accelerator complex was completed in 2014. Over the subsequent three years the upgrades for the experimental halls were completed, beamlines and spectrometers commissioned and transitions made to production running for the Nuclear Physics program. This paper will present an overview of the operational experience gained during initial accelerator commissioning through the recent achievements of simultaneous 4-Hall operations at full beam power. | ||
