Alexahin (FNAL APC) Nomenclature:  HFOFO = Helical FOFO channel of alternating solenoids (ASOL)  FOFO-xyz = FOFO with xyz resonance phase advance per focusing cell consisting of one solenoid + all other stuff (RF cavities etc.) Talk outline:  HFOFO-60 (6 cell period, Q1) - G4BL simulations  HFOFO-120 (6 cell period, Q2) - smaller beta @ absorbers  Really low-beta FOFO:  FOFO-180 (2 cell period, Q1)  HFOFO-270 (4 cell period, Q3)  Plans 3rd Muon Collider Design Workshop, BNL, December 1-3, 2009

  2. Basic Idea of HFOFO (6 Cell Example) 2 alternating solenoids absorbers RF cavities • The idea: create rotating B field by periodically tilting solenoids, e.g. with 6-solenoid period. • Periodic orbits for μ+ and μ- look exactly the same, just shifted by a half period (3 solenoids). • With tune Q>1 (per period) rD>0  muons with higher momentum make a longer path  longitudinal cooling achieved even with planar absorbers B [T] Bx50 Bz By50 z [cm] y x, y [cm] y x x z [cm] Periodic orbit for p=200MeV/c In the subsequent plots all values in cm HFOFO Status - Y.

  4. Tune “repulsion” from integer resonance 4 no absorber, no RF QI, II Nice surprise: Large 2nd order chromaticity due to nonlinear field components keeps both tunes from crossing the integer ! p/200 orbit length/L0 Momentum compaction factor: - in contrast to classical HCC with homogeneous absorber where to ensure longitudinal damping. p/200 HFOFO Status - Y.

  12. HFOFO-60 Summary 12  HFOFO snake with resonant dispersion generation allows to obtain large dispersion (~0.5m in the considered 200MHz case) and achieve 6D cooling even with planar absorbers.  HFOFO snake can simultaneously cool both μ+ and μ- .  Despite being resonant, the 200MHz HFOFO snake has sufficiently large momentum acceptance and transverse dynamic aperture to accept beam from Dave’s bunching / rotation section (G4BL simulations are in the pipeline)  Additional quadrupole field (~constant along the axis) equalizes transverse damping rates without compromising cooling efficiency.  HFOFO with 200MHz twin RF cavities gives T < 6mm, L ~10mm  By reducing solenoid sizes and using single-cell RF the transverse emittance can be reduced to T ~ 3mm, while keeping L ~10mm HFOFO characteristics can be further improved (dedicated effort is needed)  Absorber and RF windows do not strongly affect 200MHz HFOFO performance, however, their effect on subsequent stages of 6D cooling (especially the effect of the absorber windows) will be very detrimental; studies of Be or LiH usage as the window material are necessary.  If the answer is positive, one can project T ~ 1.5mm, L ~2.5mm for 800MHz HFOFO-60° channel HFOFO Status - Y.

Absorbers: LiH, total width (on-axis) 1.2cm, full wedge angle 0.2rad Total length of 6-cell period 1.68m With p0=150MeV/c BLS=94.5T  Bzmax=11.5T x y Bz/BLS Dx Dy Bx/BLS By/BLS x x HFOFO Status - Y.

  14. HFOFO-120° 14 Q2 Q1 p/p0 p/p0 – 1 With constant quadrupole field of just 1.45 T/m and no RF windows mode I II III tune 2.272+0.0052i 2.313+0.0053i 0.215+0.0029i _eq (mm) 0.83 0.78 0.80  HFOFO-120° channel with LiH absorbers provides ~ the same emittance as HFOFO-60° with LH2. No problem with absorber windows but more sensitive to outer RF windows due to larger beta there ( open cell on one side?)  Momentum acceptance looks O.K., no tracking simulations performed yet but no problem expected  800 MHz HFOFO-120° channel with LH2 absorber (if problem with windows solved) can give T ~ 0.5mm, L ~0.5mm HFOFO Status - Y.

  15. FOFO snake for final 6D cooling 15 Bz (T) 10*By Phase advance >180/cell  small -function at absorber  smaller emittance. With ~ half-integer tunes  PIC? Simplest structure – just two solenoids: Q1, Q2 =0.007 p/100 z orbit lengthening x,y [cm] p/100 - no 2nd order chromaticity, - momentum compaction too small and of the wrong sign! z HFOFO Status - Y.

  16. Helical snake for final 6D cooling 16 By increasing B-field strength it is possible to get phase advance >180/cell and small -function at the solenoid center  much smaller emittance. Tune/period > odd_integer for resonant orbit excitation Puzzle: 2-cell period (planar snake), Q>1 6-cell period, Q>3 4-cell period, Q>3 6-cell period, Q>5 HFOFO-270° channel parameters (4-cell period): 800 MHz pillbox RF 2x8cm, Emax=32MV/m Solenoids: L=8cm, Rin=16cm, Rout=26cm, Inclination: vertical +3mrad, horizontal +3mrad, vertical -3mrad, horizontal -3mrad Absorbers: LiH, width (on-axis) 1.5cm, no wedge angle Total length of 4-cell period 1.12m Bzmax=18.5 T for p0=100MeV/c p < 0 significant over-focusing required p > 0 1 2 4 3 HFOFO Status - Y.

  18. HFOFO-270° Momentum Acceptance 18 Q1 Q2  Static momentum acceptance is fine: (-9%,+19%), but the dynamic acceptance is just 16% (full width) – barely enough to accommodate the equilibrium momentum spread.  To increase dynamic acceptance one can: - reduce solenoid pitch angle (to reduce p) - reduce p0 (to increase 1/2) Both these methods are bad for longitudinal cooling –  Careful optimization is necessary  No tracking simulations yet, problems with transmission expected p/p0 p/p0 – 1 HFOFO Status - Y. Alexahin 3rd MCDW BNL December 2, 2009

  19. Return to FOFO-180° 19 Since there is no clear gain in going to 270° (just problems), more effort was applied to find solution for 180°. A superposed dipole field generated by additional coils can do the job. Such a field can not be obtained by displacing solenoids: Bz / BLS y x By / BLS Dy Dx Bzmax=15.5 T for p0=100MeV/c - within the reach of Nb3Sn technology HFOFO Status - Y.

  21. Plans 21  Search for the final stage HFOFO configuration (by IPAC10)  Front end with HFOFO (by April 2010 IDS meeting)  Determination of the number of stages and configuration for each stage (by the next MCDW)  Optimization of each stage parameters (2010-2012)  End-to-end simulation with matching between the stages (by 2012) HFOFO Status - Y.
