MOPMN029	Spin Resonance Strength Calculation Through Single Particle Tracking for Rhic	763
	Y. Luo, Y. Dutheil, H. Huang, F. Méot, V.H. Ranjbar BNL, Upton, Long Island, New York, USA
	Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. Department of Energy. The strengths of spin resonances for the polarized-proton operation in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider are currently calculated with code DEPOL, which numerically integrate through the whole ring based on analytical approximate formula. In this article, we calculate the spin resonance strength by performing Fourier transformation to the actual transverse magnetic field seen by a single particle travelling through the ring. Comparison is made between the results from this method and DEPOL and other approaches.

MOPMN030	Proton Spin Tracking with Symplectic Integration of Orbit Motion	766
	Y. Luo, Y. Dutheil, H. Huang, F. Méot, V.H. Ranjbar BNL, Upton, Long Island, New York, USA
	Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. Department of Energy. Symplectic integration for orbital motion had been adopted in SimTrack which has been extensively used for dynamic aperture calculation with beam-beam interaction for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Recently spin tracking for protons has been implemented on top of the orbit motion in this code. In this article, we will explain the implementation of spin motion using Thomas-BMT equation, and benchmark with other spin tracking codes currently used for RHIC. Possibility and remedy for very-long term particle tracking, such as on the RHIC energy acceleration, is also explored.

TUPWI048	Experimental Demonstration of an Interaction Region Beam Waist Position Knob for Luminosity Leveling	2357
	Y. Hao, Y. Luo, A. Marusic, G. Robert-Demolaize, X. Shen BNL, Upton, Long Island, New York, USA M. Bai FZJ, Jülich, Germany Z. Duan IHEP, Beijing, People's Republic of China
	Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. Department of Energy. In this paper, we report on the experimental implementation of the model-dependent control of the interaction region beam waist position (s* knob) at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The s* adjustment provides an alternative way of controlling the luminosity and is the only known method to control the luminosity and to reduce the pinch effect of the future eRHIC. We first demonstrate the effectiveness of the s* knob in luminosity controlling and its application in the future electron ion collider, eRHIC, followed by details of the experimental demonstration of such knob in RHIC.

TUPWI053	Polarization Simulations in the RHIC Run 15 Lattice	2372
	F. Méot, H. Huang, Y. Luo, V.H. Ranjbar, G. Robert-Demolaize BNL, Upton, Long Island, New York, USA S.M. White ESRF, Grenoble, France
	Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. Department of Energy. RHIC polarized proton Run 15 uses a new acceleration ramp optics, compared to RHIC Run~14 and earlier runs, in relation with electron-lens beam-beam compensation developments. The new optics induces different strengths in the depolarizing snake resonance sequence, from injection to top energy. As a consequence, polarization transport along the new ramp has been investigated, based on spin tracking simulations. Sample results are reported and discussed.

TUPWI060	RHIC Polarized Proton-Proton Operation at 100 GeV in Run 15	2384

Zhang BNL, Upton, Long Island, New York, USA
	The first part of RHIC Run 15 consisted of nine weeks of polarized proton on proton collisions at a beam energy of 100 GeV at two interaction points. In this paper we discuss several of the upgrades to the collider complex that allowed for improved performance this run. The largest effort consisted of commissioning of the electron lenses, one in each ring, which are designed to compensate one of the two beam-beam interactions experienced by the proton bunches. The e-lenses therefore raise the per bunch intensity at which luminosity becomes beam-beam limited. A new lattice was designed to create the phase advances necessary for a functioning e-lens which also has an improved off-momentum dynamic aperture relative to previous runs. In order to take advantage of the new, higher intensity limit without suffering intensity driven emittance deterioration, other features were commissioned including a continuous transverse bunch-by-bunch damper in RHIC and a double harmonic capture scheme in the Booster. Other high intensity protections include improvements to the abort system and the installation of masks to intercept beam lost due to abort kicker pre-fires.

	Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. Department of Energy. In the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) 100 GeV polarized proton run in 2015[1], two electron lenses [2] were used for the first time to partially compensate for the head-on beam-beam effect. Here, we describe the design of the current electron lens, detailing the hardware modifications made after the 2014 commissioning run with heavy ions. A new electron gun with 15-mm diameter cathode is characterized. The electron beam transverse profile was measured using a YAG screen and fitted with a Gaussian distribution. During operation, the overlap of the electron and proton beams was achieved using the electron backscattering detector in conjunction with an automated orbit control program.
