Simulations of coherent scattering experiments at storage ring synchrotron radiation sources in the hard x-ray range

Detailed simulations of experiments carried out at modern light sources are directly related to the most efficient and productive use of these facilities for research in multiple branches of science and technology. The “Synchrotron Radiation Workshop” computer code with its Python interface, and Sirepo web-browser-based graphical user interface, currently supports physical optics simulations of coherent X-ray scattering and imaging experiments on user-defined virtual samples. We present examples of simulations of coherent scattering experiments that are typically performed at the Coherent Hard X-ray beamline at Brookhaven National Laboratory’s (BNL) National Synchrotron Light Source II. We also present several comparisons of the simulations with the results of actual coherent X-ray scattering experiments with nano-fabricated test samples produced at BNL’s Center for Functional Nanomaterials.

Dynamic Aperture Evaluation for the Hadron Storage Ring in the Electron-Ion Collider

The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) is aiming at a design luminosity of 1e34 cm⁻²s⁻¹. To maintain such a high luminosity, both beams in the EIC need an acceptable beam lifetime in the presence of the beam-beam interaction. For this purpose, we carried out weak-strong element-by-element particle tracking to evaluate the long-term dynamic aperture for the hadron ring lattice design. We improved our simulation code SimTrack to treat some new lattice design features, such as radially offset on-momentum orbits, coordinate transformations in the interaction region, etc. In this article, we will present the preliminary dynamic aperture calculation results with β^{*}- function scan, radial orbit shift, crossing angle collision, and magnetic field errors.

COOLING PERFORMANCE IN A DUAL ENERGY STORAGE RING COOLER*

The lon­gi­tu­di­nal and trans­verse emit­tance growth in hadron beams due to in­tra-beam scat­ter­ing (IBS) and other heat­ing sources de­te­ri­o­rate the lu­mi­nos­ity in a col­lider. Hence, a strong hadron beam cool­ing is re­quired to re­duce and pre­serve the emit­tance. The cool­ing of high en­ergy hadron beam is chal­leng­ing. We pro­pose a dual en­ergy stor­age ring-based elec­tron cooler that uses an elec­tron beam to ex­tract heat away from hadron beam in the cooler ring while the elec­tron beam is cooled by syn­chro­tron ra­di­a­tion damp­ing in the high en­ergy damp­ing ring. In this paper, we pre­sent a de­sign of a dual en­ergy stor­age ring-based elec­tron cooler. Fi­nally, the cool­ing per­for­mance is sim­u­lated using Jef­fer­son Lab Sim­u­la­tion Pack­age for Elec­tron Cool­ing (JSPEC) for pro­ton beams at the top en­ergy of 275 GeV for Elec­tron-Ion Col­lider.

Modeling of the Optical Stochastic Cooling at the IOTA Storage Ring Using ELEGANT

In support of the Optical Stochastic Cooling (OSC) experiment at IOTA, we implemented a high-fidelity model of OSC in ELEGANT. The element is generalizable to any OSC experiment and captures three main behaviors; (i) the longitudinal time of flight OSC, (ii) the effects between the transverse motion of particles in the beam and the transverse distribution of undulator radiation, and (iii) the incoherent contributions of neighboring particles. Together these produce a highly accurate model of OSC and were benchmarked using the results from the IOTA OSC experiment.

Electron Ion Collider Machine Protection System: Requirements for an Electron Storage Ring abort system

The Electron Ion Collider (EIC) accelerator complex includes multiple high-energy high-power accelerators [1]. Operation of such a complex is associated with numerous hazards and risks of possible damage to the equipment. The EIC machine protection system (MPS) scope is to protect the components of each accelerator from damage by the beam. The EIC MPS design, commissioning and operation is closely interconnected with the protection of various accelerator subsystems, such as RF-system, cryogenics, vacuum system etc. Yet, the primary goal of the MPS is to protect the EIC accelerators from the possible damage caused by electron and proton beams.

On the Computation of the Beam Position in the Arcs of the Hadron Storage Ring

To compensate for the velocity differences of the hadrons and electrons in the Electron-Ion Collider, the hadron beam will be operated in a large range of the radial displacement (±20 mm in the 64 mm wide vacuum chamber). Machine protection and beam optics measurement require high-accuracy calculations of the beam position from the signal induced on the pickup electrodes. For the HSR, we need at least the fifth-order polynomial fit, which provides 70 microns r.m.s. error in the 40 by 20 mm region of interest as shown in Fig. 1. The calculations are made using a MATLAB script solving the 2D electrostatic problem.

Snakes for the Hadron Storage Ring

The Electron Ion Collider calls for collisions of polarized proton and polarized helion beams on polarized electron beams. To preserve polarization of these polarized hadron beams during acceleration, six full helical snakes will be installed. As there are currently 4 snakes in RHIC, the remaining two snakes will be made from existing rotator magnet coils. The existing snakes are made from only right-handed helices where the rotator magnets are made from both right handed and left handed helicity magnets. In order for a sufficient stock of spare coils, one snake will be made of left handed coils. Simulations using Opera field maps in zgoubi show the left handed snake has sufficient range to provide the desired snake precession axes for helions and protons with the existing power supplies. This is an overview of the right and left handed snake assemblies and their effects.

Rotators for the Hadron Storage Ring

The Electron Ion Collider calls for collisions of polarized electrons on transversely and longitudinally polarized protons and helions. To facilitate longitudinal polar ization, helical dipole rotator magnets from the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider will be reused. These rotators are placed asymmetrically at -35.28 and 61.35 mrad from the interaction point. Longitudinal polarization of polarized protons cannot be satisfied for all energies while remaining below the maximum current of 322 A. Care has been taken to ensure longitudinal polarization can be satisfied at the energies of interest. The rotators ramping result in a shift in νs which has been compensated for with a change in the snake precession axes. The rotators can satisfy longitudinal polarization at all energies of interest, and the νs compensation has also been established.

Electron storage ring power supply system design report

In January 2020, U.S. Secretary of Energy Dan Brouillette announced the decision to build an Electron Ion Collider (EIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). While advancing the state of the art of particle colliders, the EIC will enable the U.S. nuclear physics community, with world wide participation, to take a giant step forward in the centuries-old quest to understand the nature of matter at its most fundamental level, providing the clearest picture yet of how the elemental quarks and gluons interact to form the basic structure of atoms and nuclei. The EIC at Brookhaven National Laboratory will be the first particle accelerator capable of colliding polarized ions with polarized electrons.

The storage ring proton EDM experiment

We describe a proposal to search for an intrinsic electric dipole moment (EDM) of the proton with a sensitivity of \targetsens, based on the vertical rotation of the polarization of a stored proton beam. The New Physics reach is of order $10^~3$TeV mass scale. Observation of the proton EDM provides the best probe of CP-violation in the Higgs sector, at a level of sensitivity that may be inaccessible to electron-EDM experiments. The improvement in the sensitivity to $\theta_{QCD}$, a parameter crucial in axion and axion dark matter physics, is about three orders of magnitude.
