  3. The result, reported at the January 1931 APS meeting, earned Livingston his Ph.D. and Lawrence $500 from the National Research Council towards the construction of a machine that might be useful for nuclear physics."

  5. A briefing on RHIC RHIC consists of two 3.8 km long rings, called Blue (clockwise) and Yellow (counter clockwise) It has six interaction regions (IR), four of which are equipped with detectors: PHENIX and some other less important experiments There are 3(4) pre-injectors and transfer lines involved when filling RHIC.

  6. Some Basics: Bunched Beam • Beam is accelerated by Radio Frequency (RF) cavities: • 28 MHz for acceleration • 200 MHz for storage to reduce bunch length • 28 MHz defines the number of “buckets” = 360, length is 12.8 ms/360=35 ns (or 10 m) • Coasting beam: continuous, no bunch structure (debunched), cannot be accelerated • Bunched (or captured) beam: every 6th (3rd) bucket, i.e. 55+5 (110+10) bunches per ring with 109 Au ions or 1011 protons total of 55 bunches per ring 12.8 ms per revolution Bunch 1 Bunch 55 Abort gap “cogging”: lock frev of both beams and rotate bunches such that they collide at IRs

  7. Injection energy RHIC ramp with 56 bunches Storage energy Acceleration Total Blue current Bunched blue current Total Yellow current BLUE Fill 56 bunches Bunched Yellow current YELLOW Fill 55 bunches Transition energy Correction points (stepstones) The beam is accelerated from Injection Energy (10 GeV) to Storage Energy (100 GeV). The acceleration process is called “ramp”.

  13. Transition Energy • Below the transition energy, high-energy particles take less time (higher frequency) to navigate the accelerator than low-energy particles.  • above the transition energy, when the particle speed is very close to the speed of light, it is the increase of R that becomes the dominant effect, df/f < 0, and thus high-energy particles take longer (lower frequency) to move around the accelerator than do low-energy particles. • Due to significantly smaller emittance and the phase instability in the synchrotron oscillation, the beam with large enough intensity tends to be very unstable when the transition energy is reached.  • Near the transition energy, the accelerating voltage is jumped in phase (of the synchrotron oscillation) so that the accelerating particles from the rising slope of the synchrotron oscillation would find themselves on the descending slope.  • This way, the particles can be further accelerated to energies beyond the transition energy.  After that,allparticles, regardless of their slight differences in momentum, take exactly the same amount of time to circle the machine.

  14. β* is the β (amplitude-function in the phase oscillation) at the collision point.

  15. Circulate: Betatron Motion Particles perform oscillations around closed orbit. The number of oscillations per revolution is called the “tune”. The quadrupole configuration (“optic”) defines the tune (betatron function). Integer and 1/2 , 1/3, 1/4 … tunes would cause magnetic imperfections to be repetitive and resonant => beam loss This example: tune = 11.27 1 oscillation Number of oscillation is defined by the magnet configuration.
