MOPAB009 | Review of the Fixed Target Operation at RHIC in 2020 | 69 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-SC0012704 with the U.S. Department of Energy. 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. |

MOPAB010 | RHIC Beam Energy Scan Operation with Electron Cooling in 2020 | 72 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-SC0012704 with the U.S. Department of Energy. 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. |

MOPAB358 | Design and Measurement of the 1.4 GHz Cavity for LEReC Linac | 1113 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-SC0012704 with the U.S. Department of Energy. The Low Energy RHIC electron Cooler (LEReC) is the first electron cooler based on rf acceleration of electron bunches. To further improve RHIC luminosity for heavy ion beam energies below 10 GeV/nucleon, a normal conducting RF cavity at 1.4 GHz was designed and fabricated for the LINAC that will provide longer electron bunches for the LEReC. It is a single-cell cavity with an effective cavity length shorter than half of the 1.4 GHz wavelength. This cavity was fabricated and tested on-site at BNL to verify RF properties, i.e. the resonance frequency, FPC coupling strength, tuner system performance, and high power tests. In this paper, we report the RF test results for this cavity. |

MOPAB359 | Operational Experience and Redesign of the Tuner without Spring Fingers for the LEReC Warm Cavity | 1116 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-SC0012704 with the U.S. Department of Energy. A folded coaxial tuner without spring fingers was designed for the Low Energy RHIC electron Cooler (LEReC) 2.1 GHz warm cavity. During RHIC run 2019, this tuner was found to cause cavity trips via different failure modes. After analyzing these failure modes, a new straight coaxial tuner without spring fingers was proposed and was installed. We show the operational experience of the new tuner in this paper. |

MOPAB385 | An Overview of RF Systems for the EIC | 1179 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under DOE Contract No. DE-SC0012704, by Jefferson Science Associates under contract DE-SC0002769, and by SLAC under Contract No. DE-AC02-76SF00515. The Electron Ion Collider (EIC) to be constructed at Brookhaven National Laboratory in the USA will be a complex system of accelerators providing high luminosity, high polarization, variable center of mass energy collisions between electrons and protons or ions. To achieve this a variety of RF systems are required. They must provide for capture, formation and storage of Ampere-class beams in the electron and hadron storage rings (ESR and HSR), fast acceleration of high-charge polarized electron bunches in the rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS), provision of cold high current electron bunches in the high-energy cooler ERL and precise high-gradient crabbing of electrons and hadrons either side of the interaction point. The challenges include strong HOM damping in the storage ring cavities and cooler ERL, very high fundamental mode power in the ESR and cooler injector, extremely stable low-noise operation of the crab cavities, mitigation of transient beam loading from gaps, and operating over a wide range of energies and beam currents. We describe the high-level system parameters and principal design choices made and progress on the R&D plan to develop these state of the art systems. |

WEPAB005 | Design Status Update of the Electron-Ion Collider | 2585 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by BSA, LLC under Contract No. DE-SC0012704, by JSA, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC05-06OR23177, and by SLAC under Contract No. DE-AC02-76SF00515 with the U.S. Department of Energy. The design of the electron-ion collider EIC to be constructed at Brookhaven National Laboratory has been continuously evolving towards a realistic and robust design that meets all the requirements set forth by the nuclear physics community in the White Paper. Over the past year activities have been focused on maturing the design, and on developing alternatives to mitigate risk. These include improvements of the interaction region design as well as modifications of the hadron ring vacuum system to accommodate the high average and peak beam currents. Beam dynamics studies have been performed to determine and optimize the dynamic aperture in the two collider rings and the beam-beam performance. We will present the EIC design with a focus on recent developments. |
