Following the Fiscal Year (FY) 2010 (Run-10) Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) Au+Au run [1], RHIC experiment upgrades sought to improve detector capabilities. In turn, accelerator improvements were made to improve the luminosity available to the experiments for this run (Run-11). These improvements included: a redesign of the stochastic cooling systems for improved reliability; a relocation of “common” RF cavities to alleviate intensity limits due to beam loading; and an improved usage of feedback systems to control orbit, tune and coupling during energy ramps as well as while colliding at top energy. We present an overview of changes to the Collider and review the performance of the collider with respect to instantaneous and integrated luminosity goals.

We present a design of the ion Rapid Cycling Medical Synchrotron (iRCMS) for carbon/proton cancer therapy facility. The facility design, produced at Brookhaven National Accelerator (BNL) at the Collider Accelerator Division (CAD) for the BEST Medical International, Inc., will be able to treat the cancer patients with carbon, lighter ions and protons. The low energy part accelerates ions and protons to the kinetic energy of 8 MeV. It consists of two ion sources (one of fully stripped carbon ions and one for protons), a Radio-Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) and linac. The 8 GeV beam is injected into a fast cycling synchrotron (iRCMS). The lattice design is a racetrack, with zero dispersion two parallel straight sections. There are 24 combined function magnets in the two arcs with a radius of ~5.6 meters with maximum magnetic field of less than 1.3 T. The acceleration is performed in 30 Hz up to the required energy for the cancer tumor treatment assuming the spot scanning technique. The maximum energy for carbon ions is 400 MeV. Ions are extracted in a single turn and fed to different beam lines for patient treatment.
