  ILC damping ring consists of very low emittance electron and positron storage rings. It is necessary for ILC damping ring to study electron cloud effects in such low emittance positron ring. We propose a low emittance operation of KEKB to study the effects.

  Beam instability caused by the electron cloud has been observed in positron and proton storage rings and it is expected to be a limiting factor in the performance of the positron Damping Ring (DR) of future Linear Colliders such as ILC and CLIC. Possible remedies for the electron cloud effect include thin-film coatings, surface conditioning, antechamber, clearing electrodes, and chamber with grooves or slots. The effect is expected to be particularly severe in magnetic field regions. To test this and possible mitigation methods, we have installed a new 4-dipole chicane experiment in the PEP-II Low Energy Ring (LER). We have also installed test chambers in straight field free regions. The associated chamber consists of bare aluminum and TiN-coated inner surface sections. Each section is instrumented with arrays of readout electrodes and retarding grids. Installation of a grooved chamber is also planned. In this paper, we describe the ongoing R&D effort at SLAC to reduce the electron cloud effect in linear colliders. We present the design of the chicane, the chambers and diagnostics, as well as the experimental results obtained.

  In the Low Energy Ring (LER) of the PEP-II accelerator, we have installed vacuum chambers with rectangular grooves in straight sections to test this possible mitigation technique for the electron cloud effect in the positron damping ring (DR) of the future Linear Colliders such as ILC and CLIC. We have also installed chambers to monitor the secondary electron yield (SEY) of TiN, TiZrV (NEG) and technical accelerator materials under the effect of electron and photon conditioning in situ. Furthermore, we have also installed test chambers in a new 4-magnet chicane. We describe the ongoing R&D effort to mitigate the electron cloud effect in the ILC damping ring, the chambers installation in the PEP-II and latest results.

  Clouds of low energy electrons in the vacuum beam pipes of accelerators of positively charged particle beams present a serious limitation for operation of these machines at high currents. Because of the size of these accelerators, it is difficult to probe the low energy electron clouds over substantial lengths of the beam pipe. We have developed a novel technique to directly measure the electron cloud density via the phase shift induced in a TE wave which is independently excited and transmitted over a section of the accelerator. We infer the absolute phase shift with relatively high accuracy from the phase modulation of the transmission due to the modulation of the electron cloud density from a gap in the positively charged beam. We have used this technique for the first time to measure the average electron cloud density over a 50 m straight section in the positron ring of the PEP-II collider at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. We have also measured the variation of the density by using low field solenoid magnets to control the electrons.
