The Coherent Electron Cooling Proof of Principle (CeC PoP) system is being installed in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory. It will demonstrate the ability of relativistic electrons to cool a single bunch of heavy ions in RHIC. This technique may increase the beam luminosity by as much as tenfold. Within the scope of this experiment, a 112 MHz 2 MeV Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) electron gun coupled with a cathode stalk mechanism, two normal conducting 500 MHz single-cell bunching cavities, a 704 MHz 20 MeV 5-cell SRF cavity and a helical undulator will be used. In this paper, we provide an overview of the engineering design for this project, test results and discuss project status and plansd.

An ampere class 20 MeV superconducting Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) is presently under commissioning at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). This facility enables testing of concepts relevant for high-energy coherent electron cooling, electron-ion colliders, and high repetition rate Free-Electron Lasers. The ERL will be capable of providing electron beams with sufficient quality to produce high repetition rate THz and X-ray radiation. When completed the SRF photoinjector will provide 2 MeV energy and 300 mA average beam current. The injector for the R&D ERL was installed in 2012, this includes a 704MHz SRF gun* with multi-alkali photocathode, cryo-system upgrade and a novel emittance preservation zigzag-like low energy merger system. We describe the design and major components of the R&D ERL injector then report the first experimental results and experiences learned in the first stage of beam commissioning of the BNL R&D ERL.
