Description
The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) project is well underway at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The EIC aims at achieving peak electron-proton luminosities of up to $10^{34}$ cm$^{-2}$ sec$^{-1}$, covering a wide range of the center-of-mass collision energy, as well as a high level of polarization. The project configuration has recently been optimized to relocate the Rapid Cycling Synchrotron into a separate smaller ring outside of the RHIC tunnel, providing flexibility of the design, construction and operation. Updates on the design and project status, beam dynamics studies highlights, plans for RHIC beam studies for EIC, as well as updates on EIC Accelerator Collaboration development, will be presented.
