TUZAUD03 | Simulation Studies on Intensity Limitations of Laser Cooling at High Energy | 93 |
|
||
Within the FAIR project, laser cooling of highly intense, ultra relativistic ion beams will be attempted for the first time, and in a large (circumference 1084 m) and strong (max. magnetic rigidity 100 Tm) synchrotron, called "SIS100". Laser cooling of such ion beams should result in a further increase of the longitudinal phase space density and in non-Gaussian longitudinal beam profiles. For stable operation of such ion beams, and for optimization of the cooling process, both the laser force and the high-intensity effects have to be studied numerically in advance. The efficiency of laser cooling has been analyzed for different synchrotron frequency regimes. At high beam intensities, intra-beam scattering and space-charge effects have been found to counteract the laser cooling force. We will discuss how they influence the laser cooling efficiency and thus affect the cooling time. | ||

Test Experiment of Laser Cooling of Relativistic Li-Like C3+ Ion Beams With a Pulsed UV-Laser System at the CSRE* | |
|

Funding: * Work supported by NSFC No.11221064, GJHZ1305 and BMBF A test experiment was performed with 12C3+ ion beams at an energy of 122 MeV/u on the CSRe in September 2014. A pulsed UV laser system from HZDR was employed for this test laser cooling experiment. The closed 2s1/2―2p1/2 optical transition at a wavelength of 155.07 nm of the Li-like carbon ions was Doppler-shifted to be resonant with the UV-laser at the wavelength of 257.5 nm in the experiment. The injected number of C3+ ~5×108,which was sufficient for testing laser cooling. Stable operation of the CSRe was observed over several days, including rf-bunching and diagnostic systems. The dynamics of the electron-cooled and RF-bunched ion beams were investigated systematically. However, first results did not yet indicate a strong interaction of the laser with the ions. Further data analysis is currently in progress. We will present the experimental results on this workshop, including Schottky spectra of electron-cooled and rf-bunched ion beams, fluorescence signals observed by the UV-sensitive PMT and CPM, and the planning of the upcoming laser cooling experiment at the CSRe. # x.ma@impcas.ac.cn |
