STATUS OF THE SECOND INTERACTION REGION DESIGN FOR ELECTRON-ION COLLIDER

Provisions are being made in the Electron Ion Collider (EIC) design for future installation of a second Interaction Region (IR), in addition to the day-one primary IR. The envisioned location for the second IR is the existing experi- mental hall at RHIC IP8. It is designed to work with the same beam energy combinations as the first IR, covering a full range of the center-of-mass energy of ?20 GeV to ?140 GeV. The goal of the second IR is to complement the first IR, and to improve the detection of scattered particles with magnetic rigidities similar to those of the ion beam. To achieve this, the second IR hadron beamline features a secondary focus in the forward ion direction. The design of the second IR is still evolving. This paper reports the current status of its pa- rameters, magnet layout, and beam dynamics and discusses the ongoing improvements being made to ensure its optimal performance.

Design Status of the Electron-Ion Collider

The Electron-Ion Collider is gearing up for "Critical Decision 2", theproject baseline with defined scope, cost and schedule.Lattice designs are beingfinalized, and preliminary component design is being carried out. Beam dynamicsstudies such as dynamic aperture optimization, instability and polarizationstudies, and beam-beam simulations are continuing in parallel. We report onthe latest developments and the overall status of the project, and presentthe plans for future activities.

Beam Induced Heating Analysis Update for the EIC Vacuum Chamber Components

One of the challenges of designing the Electron-Ion Col lider (EIC) is to mitigate beam-induced heating due to the intense electron and hadron beams. Heating of the ESR vac uum chamber components is mainly due to beam-induced resistive wall (RW) losses and synchrotron radiation. For the HSR heating is mainly due to large radial offsets and heat conduction from room temperature to cryogenic tem perature for cryo-components. In this paper, we provide an update on the beam-induced heating and thermal analysis of some critical ESR vacuum chamber components, such as the ESR Large Angle Bremhustraulung Monitor (LABM). We also provide a similar update for critical HSR vacuum com ponents, including the cryo-cooled BPM button assembly, beam screen, abort kicker, and polarimeter. To perform the thermal analyses, the resistive wall loss on individual compo nents is calculated with CST and the synchrotron radiation (if exists) is evaluated using SynRad. These losses, along with realistic boundary conditions are then fed to ANSYS to determine the temperature distribution.

Lattice Design of the EIC Electron Storage Ring for Energies Down to 5 GeV

The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory will feature an electron storage ring that will circulate polarized beams with energies up to 18 GeV. Recently a study has been undertaken to extend the minimum energy from 6 GeV to 5 GeV. As the solenoid-based spin rotators around the interaction point require specific bending angles that depend on the energy range, this change results in major changes to the geometry. Moreover, avoiding interference of the electron beamline with the other beamlines in the tunnel, as well as with the tunnel walls, is a formidable challenge, especially at the location of the large-diameter superconducting solenoids. In this contribution, the details of the modified spin rotators, geometrical layout, and optics of the revised lattice are presented.
