Electron Ion Collider Strong Hadron Cooling Injector and ERL

Intra-beam Scattering (IBS) and other diffusion mechanisms in the EIC Hadron Storage Ring (HSR) degrade the beam emittances during a store, with growth times of about 2 hours at the nominal proton energies of 275GeV, 100 GeV, and 41 GeV. Strong Hadron Cooling (SHC) can maintain good hadron beam quality and high luminosity during long collision stores. A novel cooling method ’ Coherent electron Cooling (CeC) ’ is chosen as the baseline SHC method, due to its high cooling rates. An Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) is used to deliver an intense high-quality electron beam for cooling. In this paper, we discuss the beam requirements for SHC-CeC and describe the current status of the injector and ERL designs. Two designs of injector and ERL will be presented: one for dedicated SHC and another one for SHC with precooler.

Design and Prototyping of the Electron Ion Collider Electron Storage Ring SRF cavity

Among the EIC?s numerous RF subsystems, the electron storage ring?s (ESR) 591 MHz fundamental RF system is one of the most challenging. Each cavity in the system will handle up to 2.5 A of beam current and supply up to 600 kW beam power under a wide range of voltage. The EIC R&D plan includes the design, fabrication and testing of such a cavity. In this paper, we will report the latest status and findings of the ongoing design and prototyping of this cavity, including the RF and mechanical/thermal design, fabrication design, and the progress of fabrication.

Collider Physics (Final Technical Report)

The UNM members of the ATLAS Collaboration published a comprehensive study of ATLAS Pixel leakage current recorded from the beginning of Run 1 through the end of Run 2. This study depended upon a hardware system that was designed and built by UNM and installed by us in the ATLAS cavern. The study compared ATLAS data to predictions by the Hamburg Model, thereby leveraging ATLAS data to improve a widely used simulation that has application to other LHC experiments as well as silicon systems in radiation environments outside HEP applications. Having validated the model in this way, we then used it to make predictions for ATLAS tracker design and operational conditions in Run 3 and beyond.

Expression of Interest in Contributions to the Electron-Ion Collider: Forward Silicon Vertex/Tracker Developments

The LANL EIC team would like to contribute to the EIC silicon vertex/tracking detector design, construction, commissioning and operation. Our primary focus is for a proposed forward silicon tracker with pseudorapidity coverage from 1 to 3.5 in the nucleon/nuclei beam going (forward) direction at IP-6 of the EIC. LANL LDRD is currently supporting this effort from FY20-FY22 with a funding of $5M. Meanwhile, we are open to collaborate on the other EIC detector sub-systems such as the central, backward silicon vertex/tracking detectors and/or a precision timing detector based on the LGAD technology.

Electron Ion Collider Conceptual Design Report 2021

The Conceptual Design Report (CDR) provides the technical reference design for the EIC. It demonstrates the capability of the new facility to meet the performance goals required to deliver the full scientific program recommended by the Department of Energy's Nuclear Science Advisory Committee and the National Research Council of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.

Muon Collider Pulsed Synchrotron Parameters

I work out approximate parameters for an acceleration scenario from 63 GeV to 1500 GeV using pulsed synchrotrons. I used parameters arrived at for MAP design studies. I ignore straight lengths for quadrupoles and inter-magnet spacing. Acceleration from 63 GeV to 750 GeV will be accomplished using two machines in a common tunnel: a non-hybrid pulsed synchrotron from 63 GeV to an intermediate energy, followed by a hybrid pulsed synchrotron to 750 GeV. Acceleration to 1500 GeV will be accomplished with a hybrid pulsed synchrotron. All acceleration is accomplished with 1300 MHz RF.

Recovering the Waste Energy from the Electron-Ion Collider Cooling Water Systems

While only a fraction of the electricity required for the EIC goes into the collision itself, most of the energy ultimately ends up being rejected to the environment via the infrastructure cooling systems. The energy utilized by the RF amplifiers, power supplies, magnets, vacuum systems, and cryogenics systems is rejected to the cooling towers that ultimately dissipate the energy to the atmosphere. Current estimates indicate approximately 50 MW of heat is dissipated at a low temperature by the cooling towers. This technical note is prepared to conceptually demonstrate that feasible options exist to recover the low temperature energy from the EIC cooling water systems.
