An ampere class 20 MeV superconducting Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) is presently under commissioning at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) for testing of concepts relevant for high-energy coherent electron cooling and electron-ion colliders. The injector subsystems tests and installation were finished in fall 2013. The injector includes: SRF photoelectron gun with 1 MW amplifier, 10W green drive-laser system, multi-alkaline cathode deposition system, cathode transport system, beam instrumentation and control. * The first photo current from ERL SRF gun has been observed in fall 2014 after second attempt. Completion of the ERL returning loop components installation is scheduled for April 2015 following full power ERL commissioning. After ERL commissioning in BLDG912 the ERL will be relocated to RHIC IP2 to be used as low energy RHIC electron cooler.

  The proposed eRHIC electron-hadron collider uses a "non-scaling FFAG" lattice to recirculate 16 turns of different energy through just two beamlines located in the RHIC tunnel. This paper presents lattices for these two FFAGs that are optimised for low magnet field and to minimise total synchrotron radiation across the energy range. The higher number of recirculations in the FFAG allows a shorter linac (1.322GeV) to be used, drastically reducing cost, while still achieving a 21.2GeV maximum energy to collide with one of the existing RHIC hadron rings at up to 250GeV. eRHIC uses many cost-saving measures in addition to the FFAG: the linac operates in energy recovery mode, so the beams also decelerate via the same FFAG loops and energy is recovered from the interacted beam. All magnets will constructed from NdFeB permanent magnet material, meaning chillers and large magnet power supplies are not needed. This paper also describes a smaller prototype ERL-FFAG accelerator that will test all of these technologies in combination to reduce technical risk for eRHIC.

The linear non-scaling Fixed Field Alternating Gradient (FFAG) design for eRHIC presents challenges as well as advantages. In this report, the challenge on orbit and optics corrections for eRHIC will be discussed and the solutions will be presented as well.

eRHIC adopts FFAG multi-pass ERL as its electron accelerator to provide up to 21.2 GeV electron beam. It takes 12 passes to reach 15.9 GeV and 16 passes to reach 21.2 GeV. The longitudinal dynamics of eRHIC ERL is essential to ensure the energy recovery efficiency and prevention of beam loss. We will present the results of the start to end simulation study for eRHIC ERL, to address this issue.

An Lepton Energy-recovery-linac Scalable to TeV  
 
  • V. Litvinenko

  I present a conceptual design of Linear Energy Recovery Linac operating electron or positrons beams with energies scalable to TeV. Normally energy recovery is associated with bending the lepton beam, which results in prohibitively large energy loss for synchrotron radiation. In my scheme these losses are circumvented.
