Funding: This work is supported by Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-SC0012704 with the U.S. DOE. The operation of LEReC is to provide an electron cooling to improve the luminosity of the RHIC heavy ion beam at lower energies in a range of 2.5-25 GeV/nucleon. The electron beam is generated in a DC Electron Gun (DC gun) designed and built by the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source Group. This DC gun will operate around the clock for at least two weeks without maintenance. This paper presents the design of a reliable cathode puck insertion system, which includes a multi-pucks storage device, a transfer mechanism, a puck insertion device, a vacuum/control system, and a transport scheme. |
