Description
The Hadron Storage Ring of the Electron-Ion Collider will feature 6 Siberian snakes placed at the start of each arc to coherently cancel spin precession from diametrically opposite arcs in the ring. To avoid spin-orbital resonances, the alternating sum of the rotation axes of all snakes is 90 degrees, ensuring the closed-orbit spin tune is ½ and sufficiently far away from betatron tunes and integer tunes. This choice does not account for amplitude-dependent spin tune shift, which introduces high-order spin orbit resonances in the vicinity of strong first-order resonances. By varying betatron phase advances across each of the 6 arcs, we minimize the strength of first-order spin-orbit resonances as well as ADST shift. In the case of uncooled helium-3, we find it is necessary to minimally vary the vertical orbital tune as well but are able to completely avoid depolarization throughout the ramp with time-dependent phase advances.
