BNL is responsible for the design and construction of the US Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) accumulator ring. Titanium Nitride(TiN) coating on the stainless steel vacuum chamber of the SNS accumulator ring is needed to reduce undesirable resonant multiplication of electrons. The Secondary Electron Yield(SEY) of TiN coated chamber material has been measured after coated samples were exposed to air and after electron and ion conditioning. We are reporting about the TiN coating system setup at BNL and SEY measurements results performed at CERN, SLAC and KEK. We also present updated electron-cloud simulation results for the SNS accumulator assuming different SEY values.

Electron cloud due to beam induce multipacting is suspected to be one of the source of pressure rises in RHIC. This paper estimates the possible electron cloud in RHIC. Various parameters related electron multipacting has been investigated.

After an exploratory phase, during which a number of beam parameters were varied, the RHIC experiments now demand high luminosity to study heavy ion collisions in detail. Presently RHIC operates routinely above its design luminosity. In the first 4 weeks of its current operating period (Run-4) the machine has delivered more integrated luminosity that during the 14 weeks of the last gold-gold operating period (Run-2). We give an overview of the changes that increased the instantaneous luminosity and luminosity lifetime, raised the reliability, and improved the operational efficiency.

Beam induced pressure rise remains an intensity limit at the RHIC for both heavy ion and polarized proton operations. The beam injection pressure rise at warm sections has been diagnosed due to electron cloud effect. In addition, pressure rise of heavy ion operation at the beam transition has caused experiment background problem in deuteron-gold run, and it is expected to take place in gold-gold run at high intensities. This type of pressure rise is related to beam momentum spread, and the electron cloud seems not dominant. Extensive approaches for both diagnosis and looking-for-remedies are undergoing in the current gold operation, RUN 4. Results of beam scrubbing, NEG pipe in RHIC ring, beam scraping test of ion desorption, beam momentum effect at the transition, beam gap effect, solenoid effect, and NEG pipe ion desorption test stand will be presented.
