Energy Recovery Linacs for Commercial Radioisotope Production | |
|
||
Photonuclear reactions with bremsstrahlung photon beams from electron linacs can generate radioisotopes of critical interest. An SRF Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) provides a path to a more diverse and reliable domestic supply of short-lived, high-value, high-demand isotopes in a more compact footprint and at a lower cost than those produced by conventional reactor or ion accelerator methods. Use of an ERL enables increased energy efficiency of the complex through energy recovery of the “waste” electron beam, high electron currents for high production yields, and reduced neutron production and shielding activation at beam dump components. Simulation studies using G4Beamline/GEANT4 and MCNP6 through MuSim, as well as other simulation codes, will design an ERL-based isotope production facility utilizing bremsstrahlung photon beams from an electron linac. Balancing the isotope production parameters versus energy recovery requirements will inform a choice of isotope production target for future experiments. | ||

TUYB3 | Progress on the Design of the Polarized Medium-energy Electron Ion Collider at JLab | 1302 |
|

Funding: Authored by Jefferson Science Associates, LLC under U.S. DOE Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177 and DE-AC02-06CH11357. The Medium-energy Electron Ion Collider (MEIC) at JLab is designed to provide high luminosity and high polarization needed to reach new frontiers in the exploration of nuclear structure. The luminosity, exceeding 1033 cm-2s−1 in a broad range of the center-of-mass (CM) energy and maximum luminosity above 1034 cm-2s−1, is achieved by high-rate collisions of short small-emittance low-charge bunches made possible by high-energy electron cooling of the ion beam and synchrotron radiation damping of the electron beam. The polarization of light ion species (p, d, 3He) can be easily preserved and manipulated due to the unique figure-8 shape of the collider rings. A fully consistent set of parameters have been developed considering the balance of machine performance, required technical development and cost. This paper reports recent progress on the MEIC accelerator design including electron and ion complexes, integrated interaction region design, figure-8-ring-based electron and ion polarization schemes, RF/SRF systems and ERL-based high-energy electron cooling. Luminosity performance is also presented for the MEIC baseline design. |

TUPHA013 | Skew-Quad Parametric-Resonance Ionization Cooling: Theory and Modeling | 1993 |
|
||
Funding: This work was supported in part by U.S. DOE STTR Grants DE-SC0005589 and DE-SC0007634. Muon beam ionization cooling is a key component for the next generation of high-luminosity muon colliders. To reach adequately high luminosity without excessively large muon intensities, it was proposed previously to combine ionization cooling with techniques using a parametric resonance (PIC). Practical implementation of PIC proposal is a subject of this report. We show that an addition of skew quadrupoles to a planar PIC channel gives enough flexibility in the design to avoid unwanted resonances, while meeting the requirements of radially-periodic beam focusing at ionization-cooling plates, large dynamic aperture and an oscillating dispersion needed for aberration corrections. Theoretical arguments are corroborated with models and a detailed numerical analysis, providing step-by-step guidance for the design of Skew-quad PIC (SPIC) beamline. |

TUPTY074 | Muon Beam Emittance Evolution in the Helical Ionization Cooling Channel for Bright Muon Sources | 2203 |
|
||
The six-dimensional ionization cooling is essential to design a bright muon source. A geometry constraint is a challenge issue in a compact helical cooling channel (HCC). Especially, the HCC requires a large bore helical magnet and a compact helical RF system to incorporate the RF into the magnet chamber. A new emittance evolution has been designed to mitigate the geometry constraint. The HCC was functionally separated into three parts sections. The lattice at the initial section provides a large transverse acceptance by using a strong helical focus magnet. Once the transverse beam size is small enough to get into the compact RF the HCC lattice in the middle section generates a large longitudinal beta tune to dominate the longitudinal cooling. Consequently, the longitudinal emittance becomes smaller than the transverse one at the end of middle section. In the final section, the magnetic field strength is gradually reduced to match out the helical channel to the straight solenoid. As a result, the emittance exchange takes place and the final transverse emittance becomes smaller than the longitudinal one. The new emittance evolution scenario will be discussed in this presentation. | ||

TUPWI033 | Matching into the Helical Bunch Coalescing Channel for a High Luminosity Muon Collider | 2315 |
|
||
Funding: This work was supported in part by U.S. DOE STTR Grant DE-SC0007634. This manuscript has been authored by Jefferson Science Associates, LLC under U.S. DOE Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177. For high luminosity in a muon collider, muon bunches that have been cooled in the six-dimensional helical cooling channel (HCC) must be merged into a single bunch and further cooled in preparation for acceleration and transport to the collider ring. The helical bunch coalescing channel has been previously simulated [*, **] and provides the most natural match from helical upstream and downstream subsystems. This work focuses on the matching from the exit of the multiple bunch HCC into the start of the helical bunch coalescing channel. The simulated helical matching section simultaneously matches the helical spatial period λ in addition to providing the necessary acceleration for efficient bunch coalescing. Previous studies assumed that the acceleration of muon bunches from p=209.15 MeV/c to 286.816 MeV/c and matching of λ from 0.5 m to 1.0 m could be accomplished with zero particle losses and zero emittance growth in the individual bunches. This study demonstrates nonzero values for both particle loss and emittance growth, and provides considerations for reducing these adverse effects to best preserve high luminosity. *C.

WEPJE015 | Muon Tracking Studies in a Skew Parametric Resonance Ionization Cooling Channel | 2705 |
|
||
Funding: This work was supported in part by U.S. DOE STTR Grant DE-SC0005589. This manuscript has been authored by Jefferson Science Associates, LLC under U.S. DOE Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177. Skew Parametric-resonance Ionization Cooling (SPIC) is an extension of the Parametric-resonance Ionization Cooling (PIC) framework that has previously been explored as the final 6D cooling stage of a high-luminosity muon collider. The addition of skew quadrupoles to the PIC magnetic focusing channel induces coupled dynamic behavior of the beam that is radially periodic. The periodicity of the radial motion allows for the avoidance of unwanted resonances in the horizontal and vertical transverse planes, while still providing periodic locations at which ionization cooling components can be implemented. A first practical implementation of the magnetic field components required in the SPIC channel is modeled in MADX. Dynamic features of the coupled correlated optics with and without induced parametric resonance are presented and discussed. |
