Coherent Electron Cooling (CeC) requires detailed con- trol of the phase between the hadron an the FEL-amplified wave packet. This phase depends on local electron beam parameters such as the energy spread and the peak current. In this paper, we examine the effects of local density variations on the cooling rates for CeC.

  End Station Test Beam (ESTB) is an end beam line at SLAC using a small fraction of the 13.6 GeV electron beam from the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), restoring test beam capabilities in the large End Station A (ESA) experimental hall. In the past, 18 institutions participated in the ESA program at SLAC. The ESTB program will provide one of a kind test beams essential for developing accelerator instrumentation and accelerator R&D, performing particle and astroparticle physics detector research, linear collider machine and detector interface (MDI) R&D, developing of radiation-hard detectors and material damage studies with several distinctive features. At this stage, 4 new kicker magnets are added to divert 5 Hz of LCLS beam to the A-line, a new beam dump is installed and a new PPS system is built in ESA. In a second stage, a secondary hadron target will be installed, able to produce pions up to about 12 GeV/c at 1 particle/pulse. In summary, ESTB provides a new test facility for LHC detector upgrades, Super B Factory detector development, and Linear Collider accelerator and detector R&D with the first beam expected by June and users starting operations by July 2011.

  We implement a single level version of the fast multipole method in the software package COSY Infinity. This algorithm has been used in other physics fields to determine high accuracy electrostatic potentials, and is implemented here for charged particle beams. The method scales like NlogN with the particle number and has a priori error estimates, which can be reduced to essentially machine precision if multipole expansions of high enough order are employed, resulting in a highly accurate algorithm for simulation of intense beams without averaging such as encountered in PIC methods. In order to further speed up the algorithm we use COSY Infinity’s innate differential algebraic methods to help with the expansions inherent in this system. Differential algebras allow for fast and exact numerical differentiation of functions that carries through any mathematical transformations performed, and can be used to quickly create the expansions used in the fast multipole method. This can then be combined with moment method techniques to extract transfer maps which include space charge within distributions that are difficult to approximate.

The Long Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE) will utilize a neutrino beamline facility located at Fermilab. The facility will aim a beam of neutrinos, produced by 60-120 GeV protons from the Fermilab Main Injector, toward a detector placed at the Deep Underground Science and Engineering Laboratory (DUSEL) in South Dakota. Secondary particles that do not decay into muons and neutrinos as well as any residual proton beam must be stopped at the end of the decay region to reduce noise/damage in the downstream muon monitors and reduce activation in the surrounding rock. This goal is achieved by placing an absorber structure at the end of the decay region. The requirements and conceptual design of such an absorber, capable of operating at 2+ MW primary proton beam power, is described.

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.

  There is substantial international interest in construction of an Electron Ion Collider. Such a collider could explore physics ranging from discovery of a new state of matter in QCD to probing physics beyond the standard model. The speaker will review the physics goals for a proposed Electron Ion Collider, and review relevant performance of existing proposals for such a facility.
