Heat transfer study on the beamline for an electron–ion collider at BNL
This study aims to calculate thermal loads that arise as a consequence of the beamline connecting the cold (2 K) region to the ambient. Heat loads are evaluated by numerical analysis and the findings are supported by analytical calculations. An active heat intercept is proposed to mitigate heat movement to the cold end. Owing to unfavorable length-to-depth ratio and large temperature differences, it is found that radiation becomes a dominant mode of heat transfer. The presence of bellows on the beamline complicates the thermal study which is heavily dependent on geometry. An analytical framework is set up to simplify the coupled conduction–radiation problem and is shown to decrease simulation times by an order of magnitude. The study finds that the total heat moving by conduction to the cold end is around 13 W and via radiation is 1.8 W. Furthermore, the active cooling circuit under present conditions has the ability to intercept between 8 - 12 W of heat.

Coherent Electron Cooling Demonstration Experiment
Coherent electron cooling (CEC) is considered to be on of potential candidates capable of cooling high-energy, high-intensity hadron beams to very small emittances. It also has a potential to significantly boost luminosity of high-energy hadron-hadron and electron-hadron colliders. In a CEC system, a perturbation of the electron density caused by a hadron is amplified and fed back to the hadrons to reduce the energy spread and the emittance of the beam. Following the funding decision by DoE office of Nuclear Physics, we are designing and building coherent electron cooler for a proof-of-principle experiment at RHIC to cool 40 GeV heavy ion beam. In this paper, we describe the layout of the CeC installed into IP2 interaction region at RHIC. We present the design of the CeC cooler and results of preliminary simulations.
