We present a design of a CW Electron Recovery Linacs (ERL) for future electron hadron colliders eRHIC and LHeC. In eRHIC, a six-pass ERL would be installed in the existing tunnel of the present Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The 5-30 GeV polarized electrons will collide with RHIC’s 50-250 (325) GeV polarized protons or 20-100 (130) GeV/u heavy ions. In LHeC a 3-pass 60 GeV CW ERL will produce polarized electrons for collisions with 7 TeV protons. After collision, electron beam energy is recovered and electrons are dumped at low energy. Two superconducting linacs are located in the two straight sections in both ERLs. The multiple arcs are made of Flexible Momentum Compaction lattice (FMC) allowing adjustable momentum compaction for electrons with different energies. The multiple arcs, placed above each other, are matched to the two linac’s straight sections with splitters and combiners.

  Models of the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron, based on stepwise ray-tracing methods using both mathematical modelling or field maps so to represent the optical elements, including the siberian snakes, are being developed based on stepwise ray-tracing numerical tools. The topic is introduced in earlier PAC and IPAC publications, a status is given here.

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.

Interaction region design of the future electron ion collider at Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (eRHIC) is presented. Polarized protons/Helium and heavy ions will collider with 5-30 GeV polarized electrons with a 10 mrad angle by using the crab cavity crossing. The interaction region is designed without bending electrons to avoid problems with synchrotron radiation. Use of the combined function magnet in the ion side allows detection of neutrons. Design allows detection of deep virtual scattering as well as detection of partons with lower energies (po/2.5). The betatron function at collisions is 5 cm assuming use of three dimensional electron beam cooling. Special chromaticity correction is applied in both sides of the ion straight section interaction region. Electrons arrive with avoiding completely synchrotron radiation at the detector. Special superconducting combined function magnet is designed to allow passage of electrons through the field free region.

  We present the design of a future high-energy high-luminosity electron-hadron collider at RHIC called eRHIC. We plan adding 20 (30) GeV energy recovery linacs to accelerate and to collide polarized and unpolarized electrons with hadrons in RHIC. The center-of-mass energy of eRHIC will range from 30 to 200 GeV. The luminosity exceeding 1034 cm-2s−1 can be achieved in eRHIC using the low-beta interaction region which a 10 mrad crab crossing. A natural staging scenario of step-by-step increases of the electron beam energy by builiding-up of eRHIC's SRF linacs. We report on the eRHIC design and cost estimates for it stages. We discuss the progress of eRHC R&D projects from the polarized electron source to the coherent electron cooling.
