  22. Simulations of stochastic cooling Expected evolution of particle distribution function and rms value of dP/P for protons. Expected evolution of particle distribution function and rms value of dP/P for carbon ions (C6+) Доклад Н.Шурхно 22/34

  23. Nuclotron-NICA Stochastic cooling system prototype at Nuclotron Vacuum chamber for pick-up Vacuum chamber for kicker Slot-coupler structures, manufactured at IKP FZJ We plan to assemble and TEST stochastic cooling system prototype at Nuclotron in the end of 2011 (depends on electronics delivery) 23/34

  24. Stochastic cooling Kicker - 48 meters upstream the IP-point PU - 132 meters upstream the Kicker Total and partial slip-factors of the ring as the function of ion energy. At such position of the kicker the condition gives for the acceptable upper frequency of the band the value of about 20 GHz (at the momentum spread equal to the ring dynamic aperture ±0.01). The luminosity of 11027 cm2s1 corresponds to about 2.3109 ions per bunch, the effective ion number is about 81011. To provide required cooling time the cooling bandwidth can be chosen from 3 to 6 GHz “Slice” overlapping (by D.Moehl) 3..6GHz: Tsc~0,5Tibs 2..4 GHz: Tsc~Tibs W = 3-6 GHz 24/34

  25. Electron cooling Electron transverse temperature [eV] required to obtain ion life-time = 10 hours. Dependence of the cooling times for transverse and longitudinal degrees of freedom Recombination supression: a) Increasing T_tr_e b) “Shift” of electron energy T_tr_e = 1 eV Conclusions: T_ecool ~ 0,05 Tibs at 1 GeV/u 25/34

  27. Status of NICA SC magnets Magnets for the Booster: • Prototype dipole magnet had been manufactured and successfully tested in May of this year. The first results of the tests had been obtained. • The iron yoke of model quadrupole lens had been manufactured. Completion of the lense is planned for August 2011. • Multipole corrector magnet, a cryostat for the lense and the corrector are under construction. Completion of their construction is planned for November 2011. • Cryogenic tests of the tandem lense + corrector in the common cryostat is scheduled for the end of this year. • Development of the first stage of the system for magnetic measurements scheduled for the end of this year. Collider Magnets: • The iron yoke for model dipole magnet had been manufactured. Two coils and cryostat for magnet must be completed in June. Cryogenic test is planned for August - September 2011. • Manufacturing of the iron yoke for model quadrupole lense and tooling for its coil winding had been started. 27/34

  28. First test results for booster dipole The quench history of the magnet Installation of the cryostat with the magnet on the bench for the cryogenic test. AC losses as a function of the field ramp rate at magnet operation in triangular cycle Cryogenic test facility forsuperconducting magnets Доклад Г.Кузнецова 28/34

  29. First test results for booster dipole • The first quench was occurred at 7705 A. After 13th quench current reach nominal value 9690 A. This corresponds to the magnetic field induction in the gap of 1.8 T. Further training was stopped because of the limitation of the power supply. • The measured static (at zero current) heat flow to the magnet was 5.8 W. • AC losses of 12 W were determined by the calorimetric method during magnet operation at triangular cycle with field ramp rate 1.2 T/s without pause. This value agrees well with the calculation and confirms the correct grade of steel for the magnet yoke. • Hydraulic resistance of the cooling channel was 2 times higher calculated value due to the fact that the inner tube diameter was 2.6 mm instead of 3 mm.

  32. Nuclotron-NICA Important: - dedicated test bench for injection system (inflector plates) into Booster is in operation; - dedicated prototype of HV platform for Ion sources (PS 225kV/3A) is under assembly; - new system of the whole complex synchronization is under design and construction; - new thermometry and quench detection system for Nuclotron is in progress; - development of electron cooling system for booster is in active phase (could be designed and constructed at BINP). HV electron cooling system for collider is under design with All-Russian Electrotechnical Inst + FZJ + BINP; - … PLANS: Next run at Nuclotron with prolonged period (~1,5 months) is planned for November-December 2011 and beam will be delivered mainly for physicists. 32/34
