Update on Parametric-resonance Ionization Cooling (PIC)

This update provides insights into the concept of Parametric Resonance Ionization Cooling (PIC) for muons, including the use of wedge-shaped absorber plates and energy-restoring RF cavities to achieve beam size reduction and longitudinal cooling. The design approach involves correlated optics and an epicyclic magnetic field configuration. Various methods, such as adjusting helix parameters and finding stable periodic orbits, are discussed for designing the correlated optics. The update also explores alternative options for the PIC channel.

  2. m Muons, Inc. PIC Concept • Parametric resonance induced in muon cooling channel • Muon beam naturally focused with period of free oscillations • Wedge-shaped absorber plates combined with energy-restoring RF cavities placed at focal points (assuming aberrations corrected) • Ionization cooling maintains constant angular spread • Parametric resonance causes strong beam size reduction • Emittance exchange at wedge absorbers produces longitudinal cooling • Resulting equilibrium transverse emittances are an order of magnitude smaller than in conventional ionization cooling The 2010 NFMCC Collaboration MeetingUniversity of Mississippi, January 13-16, 2010

  3. m Muons, Inc. PIC Requirements • Varying dispersion • small at absorbers to minimize energy straggling • non-zero at absorbers for emittance exchange • large between focal points for compensating chromatic and spherical aberrations • Correlated optics • one free oscillations’ period low-integer multiple of the other  - /+ = 1 or 2 • dispersion magnitude oscillation period D factor of 2 shorter than + • Required features can be produced by epicyclic magnetic field configuration • solenoid with two superimposed different-period transverse helical fields • uniform smoothly-varying fringe-field-free configuration The 2010 NFMCC Collaboration MeetingUniversity of Mississippi, January 13-16, 2010

  4. m Muons, Inc. Epicyclic Channel • Two transverse helical fields with wave numbers k1 and k2 • Equation of motion • Analytic solution under approximation kc = const (pz = const) • Dispersion function containing two oscillating terms • Condition for dispersion to periodically return to zero The 2010 NFMCC Collaboration MeetingUniversity of Mississippi, January 13-16, 2010

  5. Approach to DesigningCorrelated Optics Consider second helix perturbation Adjust desired free-oscillation period ratio - /+ = 1 or 2 in primary helix By choosing wave number k2 of second helix, set dispersion oscillation period D= |2/(k2-k1)| such that +/D = 2 Adjust strength of second helix to create oscillating dispersion Iteratively adjust - /+and +/Dby changing helices’ parameters until correlated optics is achieved m Muons, Inc.

  9. Finding Periodic Orbit No exact analytic solution in case of two helices Stable periodic orbit does not always exit Begin with single helix where stable periodic orbit is knows to exist Use one or combination of the following to find periodic orbit when second helix is present Adiabatically increase strength of second helix while tracking orbit Use “friction” force making particle trajectory converge to periodic orbit Increase second helix’s strength from zero in steps finding periodic orbit iteratively on each step m Muons, Inc.
