Description

With the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) ceasing its operation in February 2026, the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) project at the Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) will be the only high-energy particle collider in North America, foreseen to start operating in 2035. To provide the ambitious electron and hadron ring beam parameters to achieve the required luminosity, collision energies and spin polarization, a suite of reliable and cost-effective beam instruments (BI) is neccessary. This presentation will give a short overview of the EIC beam instrumentation suite and points out a few, particular challenging examples, such as the beam position monitor systems, explaining the design choices, methodology, and tools used. While there is no EIC beam, some instrumentation design procedures have been verified with measured beam data at RHIC to give confidence in the EIC BI design methods and tools.
