Resonance Island Jump theory for the HSR

The Resonance Island Jump (RIJ) scheme for transition crossing in HSR (or the CERN SPS [1, 2]) is radically new, and untested. Beam experiments in RHIC will be necessary if the RIJ scheme is to be considered as a serious alternative to upgrading the first order linear jump scheme currently implemented in RHIC [3]. This note outlines the planning and the theoretical foundations that are necessary for such a beam experiment, perhaps to be performed in 2024.

Synchronizing ESR and HSR for collisions at IP6 and IP8

Bunch circulation times in the ESR and HSR must be identical, whatever the electron and hadron energies. A particular bunch in either ring can only have collisions at either IP6 or IP8, but not at both. Synchronization is achieved by co-ordinating the design trajectory circumferences of the two rings, and by controlling the HSR and ESR path lengths from IP6 to IP8. Radial shift control of the HSR circumference is summarized. The conditions for synchronization are presented. The impact of operating HSR at low proton energy with 4 inner and 2 outer arcs is assessed. Changes of the ESR circumference due to the use of super-bends at the lowest electron energies are evaluated. The effect of J x -tuning on the ESR circumference and its compensation by an HSR radial shift are discussed. Finally, the potential effects of using a Ring Cooler for hadron cooling are considered.
