A high-energy, multiple-pass energy recovery (ER) experiment proposal, using CEBAF, is in preparation by a JLab-BNL collaboration. The experiment will be proposed in support of the electron-ion collider project (EIC) R&D going on at BNL. This new experiment extends the 2003, 1-pass, 1 GeV CEBAF-ER demonstration into a range of energy and recirculation passes commensurate with BNL's anticipated linac-ring EIC parameters. The experiment will study ER and recirculating beam dynamics in the presence of synchrotron radiation, provide opportunity to develop and test multiple-beam diagnostic instrumentation, and can also probe BBU limitations. This paper gives an overview of the ER@CEBAF project, its context and preparations.

Providing Au-Au collisions in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at energies equal or lower than 10 GeV/nucleon is of particular interest to study the location of a critical point in the QCD phase diagram. To mitigate luminosity limitations arising from intra-beam scattering at such low energies, an electron cooling system is being developed. To achieve cooling, the relative velocities of the electrons and protons need to be small with maximized transverse overlap. Recombination rates of ions with electrons in the electron cooler can provide signals that can be used to tune the energies and transverse overlap to the required conditions. In this paper we take a close look at various detection methods for recombination processes that may be used to approach cooling.

Collisions with beams of highly asymmetric rigidities (proton-Gold and proton-Aluminum) were provided for the RHIC physics programs in 2015. Magnets were moved for the first time in RHIC prior to the run to accommodate the asymmetric beam trajectories during acceleration and at store. A special ramping scheme was designed to keep the revolution frequencies of the beams in the two rings equal. The unique operational experience of the asymmetric run will be reviewed.

Heavy ion collision cross sections totaling several hundred barns have been calculated previously for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). These total cross sections are more than one order of magnitude larger than the geometric ion-ion cross sections, primarily due to Bound-Free Pair Production (BFPP) and Electro-Magnetic Dissociation (EMD). Apart from a general interest in verifying the calculations experimentally, an accurate prediction of the losses created in the heavy ion collisions is of practical interest for RHIC and the LHC, where some collision products are lost in cryogenically cooled magnets. These losses have the potential to affect power and signal electronic devices and quench superconducing magnets. We have previously reported the total cross section measurement of U+U collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 192.8 GeV per nucleon-pair. Here we present the equivalent analysis for Au+Au collisions with the data available from a low-intensity store of RHIC Run in 2014.

The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) has two main operating modes with heavy ions and polarized protons respectively. In addition to a continuous increase in the bunch intensity in all modes, two major new systems were completed recently mitigating the main luminosity limit and leading to significant performance improvements. For heavy ion operation stochastic cooling mitigates the effects of intrabeam scattering, and for polarized proton operation head-on beam-beam compensation mitigated the beam-beam effect. We present the performance increases with these upgrades for heavy ions and polarized protons, as well as an overview of all operating modes past and planned.

High-gradient CW photo-injectors operating at high ac-celerating gradients promise to revolutionize many sci-ences and applications. They can establish the basis for super-bright monochromatic X-ray and gamma-ray sources, high luminosity hadron colliders, nuclear- waste transmutation or a new generation of microchip produc-tion. In this paper we report on our operation of a super-conducting RF electron gun with a record-high accelerat-ing gradient at the CsK2Sb photocathode (i.e. ~ 20 MV/m) generating a record-high bunch charge (i.e., 2 nC). We briefly describe the system and then detail our experimental results.

Recent developments of the ERL-based design of future high luminosity electron-hadron collider eRHIC focused on balancing technological risks present in the design versus the design cost. As a result a lower risk design has been adopted at moderate cost increase. The modifications include a change of the main linac RF frequency, reduced number of SRF cavity types and modified electron spin transport using a spin rotator. A luminosity-staged approach is being explored with a Nominal design (L ~ 1033 cm-2 s-1) that employs reduced electron current and could possibly be based on classical electron cooling, and then with the Ultimate design (L > 1034 cm-2 s-1) that uses higher electron current and an innovative cooling technique (CeC). The paper describes the recent design modifications, and presents the full status of the eRHIC ERL-based design.
