Medium Energy Electron Ion Collider (MEIC) at JLab has been envisioned as future high energy particle accelerator beyond 12 GeV upgrade of CEBAF. Crab crossing of colliding electron and ion beams is essential for accommodating high bunch repetition frequency in the conceptual design of MEIC. The scheme eliminates parasitic beam-beam interactions and avoids luminosity reduction by restoring head-on collisions at interaction points. This requires the separation of two beams quickly to avoid parasitic collisions and the minimization of synchrotron-betatron resonance near IP which can be fulfilled by employing the crab crossing concept first proposed by R. Palmer. Let us call this original scheme as transverse crabbing for the sake of comparison with dispersive crabbing which employs the existing accelerating/bunching RF cavities and dispersion function in the section where the cavity is installed as originally proposed by G. Jackson. In this paper, we report the beam transport and optics for both transverse and dispersive crabbing schemes followed by basic beam dynamics. Moreover, alignment and stability calculations together with synchro-betatron beam dynamics will be discussed.

Parametric-resonance Ionization Cooling (PIC) is proposed as the final 6D cooling stage of a high-luminosity muon collider. For the implementation of PIC, we developed an epicyclic twin-helix channel with correlated optics. Wedge-shaped absorbers immediately followed by short rf cavities are placed into the twin-helix channel. Parametric resonances are induced in both planes using helical quadrupole harmonics. We demonstrate resonant dynamics and cooling with stochastic effects off using GEANT4/ G4beamline. We illustrate compensation of spherical aberrations and benchmark COSY Infinity, a powerful tool for aberration analysis and compensation.

An achromatic Interaction Region (IR) design concept is presented with an emphasis on its application at an electron-ion collider. A specially-designed symmetric Chromaticity Compensation Block (CCB) induces an angle spread in the passing beam such that it cancels the chromatic kick of the final focusing quadrupoles. Two such CCB’s placed symmetrically around an interaction point (IP) allow simultaneous compensation of the 1st-order chromaticities and chromatic beam smear at the IP without inducing significant 2nd-order aberrations. Special attention is paid to the difference in the electron and ion IR design requirements. We discuss geometric matching of the electron and ion IR footprints. We investigate limitations on the momentum acceptance in this IR design.
