Description

A dedicated electron transfer line from Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) to Electron Storage Ring (ESR), referred to as the RTE line has been designed for the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). The beamline follows a straight-line geometry, with a length of 133 m, and is consists with two matching sections and a FODO section for beam diagnostics. Imperfections with magnet alignments introduce orbit distortions, making orbit correction scheme a critical component in the design. To facilitate orbit correction, each quadrupole magnet is equipped with a pair of beam position monitors (BPMs) and kickers. The Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) algorithm is used for orbit correction and tolerance studies. This paper presents the ongoing progress in the optics design and error correction scheme of the RTE line.
