Geometrical constraints: If it is possible use the existing interaction region at RHIC 2 o’clock and wider tunnel to place the superconducting linac inside it. Minimize civil construction cost and re-use for eRHIC already built and installed linac. Medium Energy eRHIC Concept
IR-Design for MeRHIC IP-2 • no synchrotron shielding included • allows p and heavy ion decay product tagging • IP-2 height beam-pipe floor 5’-8” (with digging ~10’)

ToDo list • optimize magnetic fields • do we need 4T for solenoid and 3Tm for dipole • what radiation length can we tolerate low Q2 • optimize distance Dipole to Solenoid • impact of beam lines through the detector on physics • need to optimize acceptance at low scattering angle • need acceptance down to 1o • finalize code to write root-trees
