The physics, and a design, of Large Hadron Electron Collider (LHeC) are sketched. With high luminosity, 10^{33}cm^{-2}s^{-1}, energy, \sqrt{s}=1.4 TeV, such collider can be built in which 70 GeV electron (positron) beam the LHC tunnel is collision with one hadron beams operates simultaneously LHC. LHeC makes possible deep-inelastic lepton-hadron (ep, eD eA) scattering for momentum transfers Q^2 beyond 10^6 GeV^2 Bjorken x down to 10^{-6}. New sensitivity existence new states matter,...

In the following report we give a survey of linear machine theory. Our investigations are restricted to coasting‐beam betatron motion but coupling is taken into account in general way. The equations for on‐ and off‐momentum particles derived written canonical form. From canonicity it follows that all transfer matrices automatically symplectic. Eigenvector methods introduced study stability behavior. To investigate influence coupling, generalized lattice functions defined perturbation...

In this paper, we explore a method to manipulate low energy electron bunches in space charge dominated regime, and use design linac bunch compressors compress regime. the method, effects instead of avoiding them; i.e., forces generate required chirp ordinary which uses rf accelerating system chirp. We redefine concepts dispersion function beta functions regime guide optimization. Using study (5--22 MeV) compressor produce short ($\ensuremath{\sim}150\text{ }\mathrm{fs}$) small size...

We propose a new method to generate ultrashort x-ray pulses using focused short low energy ($\ensuremath{\sim}20\text{ }\mathrm{MeV}$) electron bunches create slices of electrons from the circulating in synchrotron radiation storage ring. When bunch crosses top high ring bunch, its Coulomb force will kick slice core bunch. The separated slices, when passing through an undulator, radiate at about 160 fs. discuss advantages, challenges, and provide data which confirm feasibility this method.

This design report describes the construction plans for world's first multi-pass SRF ERL. It is a 4-pass recirculating linac that recovers beam's energy by 4 additional, decelerating passes. All beams are returned deceleration in single beam pipe with large-momentum-aperture permanent magnet FFAG optics.

We have developed a new chromatic compensation scheme for the electron storage ring with two low-beta interaction regions in Electron-Ion Collider. The hybrid consists of modular matching periodic systems and beamlines. first-order chromatically matched solutions are linearly parameterized local linear chromaticities that control higher order beatings. parameterization enables an efficient optimization dynamic aperture. As result, we successfully achieve 1% design criterion momentum aperture ring.

We present a novel method of modifying the proton losses in hadron colliders by generating external tune modulations without interfering with normal luminosity operation. The main application is to reduce loss rates, minimize background rates colliding beam experiments HERA.

National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is a new third-generation storage ring light source at Brookhaven Laboratory. The design calls for small horizontal emittance (<1 nm-rad) and diffraction-limited vertical 12 keV (8 pm-rad). Achieving low value of the beam size will enable novel user experiments with nm-range spatial meV-energy resolution. high-brightness NSLS-II lattice has been realized by implementing 30-cell double bend achromatic cells producing 2 nm rad then halving it...

In ep colliding beam measurements, approximate equality of electron and quark energies is desirable for good detection efficiency. the TeV CM energy regime, synchrotron radiation makes this requirement very expensive to meet using a storage ring electrons. A scheme outlined that ameliorates problem by superconducting linac acceleration. Parameter lists show such an approach may be practical next-generation colliders beyond HERA (Hadron Electron Ring Accelerator). An example 300-GeV with p...
