  A non-scaling FFAG lattice design to accelerate electrons from 3.2 to 10 GeV is described. This is one of the possible solutions for the future electron-ion collider (eRHIC) at Relativistic Heavy Ion Collier (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). This e-RHIC proposal requires acceleration of the low emittance electrons up to energy of 10 GeV. To reduce a high cost of the full energy super-conducting linear accelerator an alternative approach with the FFAG is considered. The report describes the 1277 meters circumference non-scaling FFAG ring. The Courant-Snyder functions, orbit offsets, momentum compaction, and path length dependences on momentum during acceleration are presented.

  Acceleration of polarized protons in the energy range of 5 to 25 GeV is particularly difficult since depolarizing spin resonances are strong enough to cause significant depolarization but full Siberian snakes cause intolerably large orbit excursions. Using a 20 - 30 % partial Siberian snake both imperfection and intrinsic resonances can be overcome. Such a strong partial Siberian snake was designed for the Brookhaven AGS using a dual pitch helical superconducting dipole. Multiple strong partial snakes are also discussed for spin matching at beam injection and extraction.

  The paper reviews the progress made lately in the design of eRHIC, proposed future electron-ion collider on the basis of the existing RHIC machine. The eRHIC aims to provide collisions of electrons and positrons on ions and protons in center mass energy range of 25-70 GeV. The goal luminosities are in 1032-1033 1/(s*cm2) values for e-p and in 1030-1031 1/(s*cm2) values for e-Au collisions. An essential design requirement is to provide longitudinally polarized beams of electrons and protons (and, possibly lighter ions) at the collision point. The eRHIC ZDR has been recently developed which considers various aspects of the accelerator design. An electron accelerator, which delivers about 0.5A polarized electron beam current in the electron energy range of 5 to 10 GeV, should be constructed at the BNL near existing ion rings of the RHIC collider and should intersect an ion ring at least in one of the available ion ring interaction regions. In order to reach the luminosity goals some upgrades in ion rings also would be required. Ways to reach lower beam emmittances (electron cooling) and higher beam intensities have to be realized.
