RHIC operations with heavy ion beams at energies below 10 GeV/nucleon are motivated by a search for the QCD Critical Point. An electron cooler is proposed as a means to increase RHIC luminosity for collider operations at these low energies. The electron cooling system should be able to deliver an electron beam of adequate quality over a wide range of electron beam energies (0.9-5 MeV). It also should provide optimum 3-D cooling for both hadron beams in the collider. A method based on bunched electron beam, which is also a natural approach for high-energy electron cooling, is being developed. In this paper, we describe the requirements for this system, its design aspects, as well as the associated challenges.

A code for determining the beam emittance from a multi-slit image has been developed. To verify its validity, we simulated a beam distribution in 4D phase space at the multi-slit position and the resulting image at a downstream profile measurement device. We applied the algorithm to this image pattern to recover the beam emittance at the slit position. The dependence of the relative difference of the inferred emittance and the input emittance on the slit width and drift length are studied in detail and presented in this report.

Efforts to experimentally prove a concept of the coherent electron cooling are underway at BNL. A short 22-MeV linac will provide high charge, low repetition rate beam to cool a single ion bunch in RHIC. The linac will consist of a 112 MHz SRF gun, two 500 MHz normal conducting bunching cavities and a 704 MHz five-cell accelerating SRF cavity. The paper describes the SRF and RF systems, the linac layout, and discusses the project status, first test results and schedule.
