New scheme with lower electron beam energy together with lower peak beam current has been proposed for the Coherent electron Cooling (CeC) proof of principle experiment in RHIC Run 25. Such new operation mode appears to be a better candidate in providing a high quality electron beam for cooling performance. We will present our results to achieve the low slice emittance/low slice energy spread...
Coherent electron cooling (CeC) is a novel technique for rapidly cooling high-energy, high-intensity hadron beam. Plasma cascade amplifier (PCA) has been proposed for the CeC experiment in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). Cooling performance of PCA based CeC has been predicted in 3D start-to-end CeC simulations using code SPACE for multiple...
For RHIC run 25, the beam energy of the Coherent Electron Cooling (CeC) experiment will be reduced to achieve better cooling performance. For the new scheme, the distribution of the cooling electrons is obtained from beam dynamics simulation using Impact-T. A 3D particle in cell (PIC) simulation code, SPACE, is then used to obtain the cooling force that depend both on the longitudinal and...
