Commissioning of Electron Cooling System of the NICA Booster Synchrotron | |
|
||
At JINR, within the framework of the NICA project at the Booster synchrotron, the Electron Cooling System (ECS) of the ion beam has been built. The SEO was designed and manufactured at the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics of SB RAS. The setup is designed to form the required parameters of the ion beam. The report presents a description of the main systems of the installation, presents the modernization of the automated control system, including a thermometry subsystem of the magnetic system, a subsystem for blocking and access control. The results of testing the ECS operation with the modernized equipment as part of the NICA Booster are presented. | ||

TUPSB04 | Features of the Electronic Cooling System of the NICA Booster | 236 |

The report presents the results obtained during the commissioning the Electron Cooling System (ECS) of the Booster, the first in the chain of three synchrotrons of the NICA accelerator complex. The work was performed without an ion beam and with a circulating ion beam He1+. In the work with a circulating ion beam, the effect of reducing the lifetime of the circulating ions was observed when the velocities of the cooling electrons and the cooled ions coincide. The dependences of the electron beam current on the ECS parameters for different electron energy values were experimentally obtained. The specific features of operation of electron gun of the NICA Booster are hollow beam formation and the phenomenon of virtual cathode creation confirmed both experiments and by numerical simulation. | ||
