Accelerator physics requirements and challenges of RF based electron cooler for EIC injection energy
Year: 2026
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Cooling of hadrons in Electron Ion Collider (EIC) at the injection energy is critical to achieving EIC design parameters. A 13 MeV electron cooler fit for the task is presently under design. This cooler will use RF-accelerated electron bunches and will provide strong cooling of the hadrons having energy of 24 GeV/nucleon. The paper describes optimization of the cooling performance, taking into account space charge, IBS and other effects, and provides physics requirements for the cooler.
