The IOTA ring at Fermilab is a unique machine exclusively dedicated to accelerator beam physics R&D. The research conducted at IOTA includes topics such as nonlinear integrable optics, suppression of coherent beam instabilities, optical stochastic cooling and quantum science experiments. In this talk we report on the first results of experiments with implementations of nonlinear integrable beam optics. The first of its kind practical realization of a two-dimensional integrable system in a strongly-focusing storage ring was demonstrated allowing among other things for stable beam circulation near or at the integer resonance. Also presented will be the highlights of the world’s first demonstration of optical stochastic beam cooling and other selected results of IOTA’s broad experimental program.

This paper covers the progress made so far in designing the first McMillan electron lens for the Fermilab IOTA ring. The novel design allows for an increase in tune spread without limiting the dynamic aperture due to its integrability. Shown are simulations for an electron gun design to generate the specific required current density distribution for the nonlinear integrable system in IOTA.
