  The High-Energy Storage Ring (HESR) is part of the upcoming International Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) at GSI in Darmstadt. The HESR dedicates to the field of high-energy antiproton physics to explore the research areas of charmonium spectroscopy, hadronic structure, and quark-gluon dynamics with high-quality beams over a broad momentum range from 1.5 to 15 GeV/c. The facility provides the combination of powerful phase-space cooled antiproton beams and internal Pellet or gas jet targets to achieve the requirements of the experiment PANDA in terms of beam quality and luminosity. Recently, the feasibility of the HESR has been investigated for the application of cooled heavy ion beams with the special emphasis on the experimental program of the SPARC collaboration at FAIR. In this contribution an outline of the Fokker-Planck approach and particle tracking for momentum cooling assisted by a barrier bucket cavity with an internal target is given. A comparison of the filter and filter-less TOF cooling techniques including beam feedback is presented. Simulation and experimental studies at COSY to verify the predictions of the cooling theory complete the contribution.

  A Status report on the ongoing developments for the demanding stochastic cooling system of the Collector Ring is given. The system operates in the frequency band 1-2 GHz, it has to provide fast 3D cooling of antiproton, rare isotope and stable heavy ion beams. The main challenges are (i) the cooling of antiprotons by means of cryogenic movable pick-up electrodes and (ii) the fast two-stage cooling (pre-cooling by the Palmer method, followed by the notch filter method) of the hot rare isotope beams. Progress in designing, testing and integrating the hardware is discussed.

  We present a novel electrostatic electrode model with rectangular boundaries. The fields are calculated using a conformal mapping. These fields are used to calculate the signal due to a relativistic beam. The response at harmonics of the revolution frequency and at the corresponding horizontal and vertical sidebands is given. The underlying nonlinear formalism is due to Bisognano and Leeman. The electrode geometry of the new stochastic cooling system at the CSRe ring at the IMP in Lanzhou is taken to derive the responses in the sum mode, the horizontal difference mode, and the vertical difference mode.

  Validation test of optical stochastic cooling (OSC) with 100 MeV electron beam is designed at IOTA ring at Fermilab. A beam diagnostic system for the test is discussed in this paper. The beam position and bunch length will be measured by using a standard button-pickup BPM; while the beam emittance will be measured by using a CCD-based synchrotron light detector. Especially, accurate time measurement is essential to carry out OSC experiments with a single particle. Desired time resolution is the order of 100 ps to study the cooling decrement in various lattice parameters. SiPM is an attractive solid-state device to detect a time domain synchrotron radiation photon. It can realize a fast rise time < 100 ps with a short time width 1-2 ns FWHM and its quantum efficiency is > 40 % at 420 nm. The beam instrumentation required to tune timing in the OSC insert is also discussed. It is based on the interference of radiation coming from the pickup and kicker undulators.

  An ultra-fast harmonic kicker consisted of normal conducting resonators with high transverse shunt impedance thus less RF power consumption was designed for the proposed Medium energy Electron Ion Collider (MEIC). In the prototype design, four quarter wave resonator (QWR) based deflecting cavities are used to generate ten cosine harmonic waveforms, the electron bunches passing through these cavities will experience an integral effect of all the harmonic fields, thus every 10th bunch in a continues bunch train of 10th harmonic bunch frequency will be kicked while all the other bunches un-kicked. Ten harmonic waves are distributed in the four cavities with the proportion of 5:3:1:1. For the multi-frequency cavities, a great challenge is to tune each harmonic to be exact frequency. In this paper, the taper and tuning scheme for the 5-modes cavity is presented. Five taper points in the inner conductor are chosen to make the five frequencies to be odd harmonics. Five stub tuners on the outer conductor are used to tune every harmonic back to its target frequency from the manufacturing errors.

TUYAUD04 Development of an Ultra Fast RF Kicker for an ERL-based Electron Cooler electron, emittance, flattop, simulation 89

  The staged approach to electron cooling proposed for Jefferson Lab's Medium Energy Electron-Ion Collider (MEIC) utilizes bunched beam electron cooling with a single-pass energy recovery linac (ERL) for cooling in the ion collider ring. Possible luminosity upgrades make use of an ERL and full circulator ring and will require ultra-fast kickers that are beyond current technology. A novel approach to generating the necessary ultra fast (ns-level) RF kicking pulse involves the summation of specific subharmonics of the cooling electron bunch frequency; the resultant kicking pulse is then naturally constrained to have rise and fall times equal to the electron bunch frequency. The uniformity of such a pulse and its effects on the beam dynamics of the cooling electron bunch are discussed.

  An overview of the recent developments regarding the RF signal processing for the stochastic cooling system of the Collector Ring is given. In focus are the developments of generic RF components which can be used at different locations within the signal paths between the pick-up and kicker tanks in the frequency band 1-2 GHz. Two of these components are discussed in detail, a power meter with high dynamic range (+9 dBm to -68 dBm), low phase distortion (± 0.75deg(max)) and low attenuation (≤ 0.4dB) and a variable phase shifter with exceptionally flat amplitude (± 0.4dB(max)) and linear phase response (± 3.5deg(max)). Furthermore, we present the status and the newest enhancements of other components with stringent specifications, such as optical notch filters, pick-up module controllers, variable attenuators, beta-switch combiners and the power amplifiers at the kickers.

TUPF10 Harmonic Stripline Kicker for MEIC Bunched Beam Cooler electron, impedance, ion, feedback 120

In the current MEIC design, the ion collider ring needs to be cooled by a bunched electron beam of up to 200 mA 55 MeV, with the possibility to upgrade to 1.5 A. Although it's not impossible to design and build an ERL to provide such a beam, the technical risk and cost associated with such an ERL will be very high. An alternative is to recirculate the electron bunches in a ring for up to 25 turns until the bunch's quality is degraded, reducing the beam current in the ERL by a factor of 25. This scheme requires a pair of fast kickers that kick one in every 25 bunches. In this paper, we will analyze the electrodynamics of a harmonic stripline kicker for this application, and compare it to a harmonic resonator kicker.

  The optical stochastic cooling (OSC) represents a promising novel technology capable to achieve fast cooling rates required to support high luminosity of future hadron colliders. The OSC is based on the same principles as the normal microwave stochastic cooling but uses much smaller wave length resulting in a possibility of cooling of very dense bunches. In this paper we consider basic principles of the OSC operation and main limitations on its practical implementation. Conclusions will be illustrated by Fermilab proposal of the OSC test in the IOTA ring.

  Stochastic cooling is obligatory for the NICA accelerator facility that is presently under development at JINR, Russia. Cooling will work with the high-intensity bunched beams in the 3-4.5 GeV energy range; all three dimensions will be treated simultaneously. The preparatory experimental work on stochastic cooling is carried out at accelerator Nuclotron (JINR) since 2010. During this work hardware solutions and automation techniques for system adjustment have been worked out and tested. Based on the gained experience the overall design of the NICA stochastic cooling system was also developed. The report describes the results of cooling experiments at Nuclotron, the developed adjustment automation techniques and presents the design of the NICA stochastic cooling system.

FRWAUD02 Fokker-Planck Approach to the Description of Transverse Stochastic Cooling emittance, pick-up, betatron, network 170
 
  • F. Nolden
    GSI, Darmstadt, Germany
 
  A Fokker-Planck model of transverse stochastic cooling (without feedback through the beam) is presented, which relies on moderately simplified assumptions about the underlying cooling system. The equilibrium emittance distribution turns out to be always exponential. Furthermore, if the initial distribution is already exponential, then the solution of the fully time-dependent Fokker-Planck equation remains exponential. The average emittance decays with a rate towards equilibrium, which is completely consistent with the classical van der Meer rate, including undesired mixing, desired mixing and thermal noise.

  We report on the design of a Faltin type pickup for the stochastic pre-cooling of rare isotope beams at 740 MeV/u, using a bandwidth of 1-2 GHz, for the Collector Ring (CR) in the FAIR project at GSI. The design difficulties inherent in Faltin rails at these frequencies are described. Measurements of prototypes and HFSS simulations are compared, to check the simulations, and show good agreement. The pickup impedance and signal output phase with respect to ions traveling at 0.83c are simulated and presented for the final design both with and without the use of damping material, showing the need to damp unwanted modes present in the beam chamber.

FRYAUD01 Commissioning of the Rare-RI Ring at RIKEN RI Beam Factory injection, pick-up, dipole, detector 182

  The Rare-RI Ring (R3) is an isochronous storage ring to measure masses of short-lived rare nuclei by using a TOF method*. The expected precision of the measured mass will be of the order of ppm. A commissioning run using a 78Kr beam was performed in June 2015 and basic performances of R3 were verified. We succeeded in injecting a particle, which was randomly produced from a DC beam from cyclotrons, into the R3 individually** with a fast kicker system***, and in extracting the particle from the R3 1 ms after the injection. We measured TOF of the 78Kr particles between the entrance and the exit of the R3 to check the isochronism. Through the first-order adjustment with trim-coils imbedded on the dipole magnets of the R3, the isochronism on the 10-ppm order was achieved for the momentum spread of ±0.2 %. Higher-order adjustment employed in future will lead us to the isochronism on the order of ppm. In addition, we confirmed that a resonance-type Schottky pick-up successfully acquired the revolution frequency information of one particle in a storage mode. In this conference, the technical aspects of the R3 and prospects from the results of the beam commissioning will be discussed.
