Polarization time with superbend

• Magnet bending field scaled proportionally with energy

• The superbend control of polarization time.

Polarization issues

• 0.5mm rms closed orbit error assumed.

• The correction scheme similar to the one used at HERA should solve the problem.

• Fast polarimeter for the on-line spin resonance corrections.

The possibility to accelerate polarized light ions: deutrons, tritium, 3He, 19F (E.Courant).The polarized sources development is required.

Depolarization from ring imperfections in the e-ring

Horizontal separation scheme Vertical separation scheme

IR Design

• IR development proceeds in close link with the detector design• Detector background and protection from synchrotron radiation issues

Spin rotator

e-ring: solenoidal spin rotator -> simplest solution• Perfect longitudinal polarization at 7.5GeV

~15% reduction at 5 or 10 GeV.

• Spin transparency conditions on optics

Rotator design

p-ring: Helical spin rotator like being used already at two RHIC experiments

Summary:

The design is based on the construction of a self-polarizing electron ring.

Polarized e-p and unpolarized e-ion beam collisions in the center of mass energy range of 30-100 Gev and at luminosities up to 0.9x1033 cm-2s-1 for e-p and 0.9x1031 cm-2s-1 for e-Au collisions.

The electron polarization time of 8-15min is achieved with superbend magnets.

The collider design could be realized using the present level of the accelerator technology.
