  The working points for polarized proton operation in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) are currently constrained between 2/3 and 7/10, and the beam and luminosity lifetimes are limited by head-on beam-beam effects. To further increase the bunch intensity, we propose a low energy Gaussian electron beam, or electron lens, to collide head-on with the proton beam in order to compensate the large tune shift and tune spread generated by the proton-proton collisions in 2 interaction points. In this article, outline of the RHIC head-on beam-beam compensation with e-lenses and parameters for both proton and electron beams are presented.

  This year deuterons and gold ions were collided in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) for the first time since 2003. The setup and performance of the collider for this run is reviewed with a focus on improvements that have led to an order of magnitude increase in luminosity since the 2003 run.

  During the RHIC polarized proton run in FY 2006 it became evident that the luminosity performance is limited by the beam-beam effect. With a working point between 2/3 and 7/10, and the necessity to mirror the tunes of the two RHIC rings at the diagonal, the beam with a horizontal tune closest to 2/3 showed poor lifetime. To overcome this limitation, a near-integer working point has been proposed. Tracking studies performed at both working points showed a larger dynamic aperture near the integer tune than above 2/3. In Run-8, this new working point was commissioned in one ring of RHIC, while the other ring was operated at the same working point as in Run-6. In this paper we report the commissioning process and operational experience with this new working point.

  During Run-8, the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) provided collisions of spin-polarized proton beams at two interaction regions. Helical spin rotators at these two interaction regions were used to control the spin orientation of both beams at the collision points. Physics data were taken with different orientations of the beam polarization. We present recent developments and improvements as well as the luminosity and polarization performance achieved during Run-8.
