Coherent electron cooling (CEC) has a potential to significantly boost luminosity of high-energy, high-intensity hadron-hadron and electron-hadron colliders*. In a CEC system, a hadron beam interacts with a cooling electron beam. A perturbation of the electron density caused by ions is amplified and fed back to the ions to reduce the energy spread and the emittance of the ion beam. To demonstrate the feasibility of CEC we propose a proof-of-principle experiment at RHIC using one of JLab’s SRF cryo-modules. In this paper, we describe the experimental setup for CeC installed into one of RHIC's interaction regions. We present results of analytical estimates and results of initial simulations of cooling a gold-ion beam at 40 GeV/u energy via CeC.

An electron-ion collider (MEIC) is envisioned as the primary future of the JLab nuclear science program beyond the 12 GeV upgraded CEBAF. The present MEIC design selects a ring-ring collider option and covers a CM energy range up to 51 GeV for both polarized light ions and un-polarized heavy ions, while higher CM energies could be reached by a future upgrade. The MEIC stored colliding ion beams, which will be generated, accumulated and accelerated in a green field ion complex, are designed to match the stored electron beam injected at full energy from the CEBAF in terms of emittance, bunch length, charge and repetition frequency. This design strategy ensures a high luminosity above 1034 s−1cm-2. A unique figure-8 shape collider ring is adopted for advantages of preserving ion polarization during acceleration and accommodation of a polarized deuteron beam for collisions. Our recent effort has been focused on completing this conceptual design as well as design optimization of major components. Significant progress has also been made in accelerator R&D including chromatic correction and dynamical aperture, beam-beam, high energy electron cooling and polarization tracking.
 
 
FROBS1 World-wide Experience with SRF Facilities 2575
 
  • A. Hutton, A. Carpenter
    JLAB, Newport News, Virginia, USA
 
  The speaker will review and analyze the performance of existing SRF facilities in the world, addressing issues of usage and availability for different customers (HEP research, material sciences, ADS). Lessons learned should be summarized for proposed future facilities (ILC, ProjectX, Muon Collider).
