A regression machine learning algorithm was applied to analyze the operation data of RHIC with electron cooler LEReC during the 2020 physics run. After constructing a black-box surrogate model from the XGBoost algorithm and plotting their partial dependency plots for different operation parameters, we can find the effects of an individual parameter on the RHIC luminosity and optimize it accordingly offline.

As part of the Beam Energy Scan (BES) physics program, RHIC operated in Fixed Target mode at various beam energies in 2020. The fixed target experiment, achieved by scraping the beam halo of the circulating beam on a gold ring inserted in the beam pipe upstream of the experimental detectors, extends the range of the center-of-mass energy for BES. The machine configuration, control of rates, and results of the fixed target experiment operation in 2020 will be presented in this report.

RHIC provided Au-Au collisions at beam energies of 5.75 and 4.59 GeV/nucleon for the physics program in 2020 as a part of the Beam Energy Scan II experiment. The operational experience at these energies will be reported with emphasis on their unique features. These unique features include the addition of a third harmonic RF system to enable a large longitudinal acceptance at 5.75 GeV/nucleon, the application of additional lower frequency cavities for alleviating space charge effects, and the world-first operation of cooling with an RF-accelerated bunched electron beam.

In electron coolers, under certain conditions, a mismatch in either gamma-factors or trajectory angles between an electron and an ion beam can cause the formation of a circular attractor in the ion beam phase space. This leads to coherent excitations of the ions with a small synchrotron or betatron amplitude and results in unusual beam dynamics, including bifurcations. In this paper, we consider the effect of coherent excitations and discuss its implications both for Low Energy RHIC Electron Cooler (LEReC) and for high energy electron coolers proposed for the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC).

Since the invention of the electron cooling technique its application to cool hadron beams in colliders was considered for numerous accelerator physics projects worldwide. However, achieving the required high-brightness electron beams of required quality and cooling of ion beams in collisions was deemed to be challenging. An electron cooling of ion beams employing a high-energy approach with RF-accelerated electron bunches was recently successfully implemented at BNL. It was used to cool ion beams in both collider rings with ion beams in collision. Electron cooling in RHIC became fully operational during the 2020 physics run and led to substantial improvements in luminosity. This presentation will discuss implementation, optimization and challenges of electron cooling for colliding ion beams in RHIC.
