The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), which is being designed by BNL, JLab and other partners, will be a particle accelerator that collides electrons with protons and nuclei to produce snapshots of those particles' internal structure. It will collide polarized high-energy electron beams with hadron beams in the center-of-mass energy range of 20-140 GeV. The electron beam, employed as a probe, will...
Since the end of the CERN Long Shut down 2 (LS2), the Antimatter Factory consists of the old CERN Antiproton Decelerator (AD) to which has been added the Extra Low ENergy Antiproton (ELENA) decelerator, allowing to serve 100 keV antiprotons up to 4 experiments at each cycle, as compared to 5.3 MeV to a single experiment before LS2. The much lower extraction energy make it possible for...
Ionization cooling is a key concept for reducing beam emittance within muon lifetime and has been developed and experimentally demonstrated over the past three decades. These studies have highlighted important constraints and design challenges for practical cooling channels. Following the recommendations from the latest P5, collaboration with the IMCC has been encouraged, resuming efforts...
