  BETACOOL program developed by JINR electron cooling group is a kit of algorithms based on common format of input and output files. General goal of the program is to simulate long term processes (in comparison with the ion revolution period) leading to variation of the ion distribution function in 6 dimensional phase space. The BETACOOL program includes three algorithms for beam dynamics simulation and takes into account the following processes: electron cooling, intrabeam scattering, ion scattering on residual gas atoms, interaction of the ion beam with internal target and some others.

The HESR will work in a high-resolution mode with 1·1010 stored antiprotons and a high-luminosity mode with 1·1011 stored antiprotons. It will be equipped with both stochastic cooling and electron cooling systems. The main purpose of the electron-cooling system is to provide relative momentum spread in the antiproton beam of a few 1·10-5 (90 %) during experiments with an internal hydrogen pellet target and with luminosity 2·1031 – 2·1032 cm-2s-1. The hydrogen pellet target is expected to produce a stream of frozen hydrogen pellets with diameter 30 μm, which move with 60 m/s and at a rate of 20,000 s-1. The pellet stream is expected to have a diameter of 2–3 mm. Therefore, in order to avoid excessive fluctuations in the count rate, the antiproton beam size at the target must not be too small. This is solved by slightly tilting the electron beam with respect to the antiproton beam, thus making use of a so-called Hopf bifurcation. In order to get a high duty factor on another time scale, while not sacrificing momentum acceptance, a barrier-bucket rf. system will be employed. The electron-cooling system will initially be built for an antiproton energy range from 800 MeV to 9 GeV, but will be built so that its energy can be extended to the full energy of the HESR (14 GeV) at a later stage. The paper discusses the choice of parameters for the electron cooling system and presents simulations.

  The very low momentum spread for small number of particle was reached on different storage rings. When the sudden reduction of the momentum spread ("phase transition") was observed during decreasing of the particle number it was interpreted as ordered state of ion beams. The most extensive study of ordered ion beams was done on storage rings ESR (GSI, Darmstadt) and CRYRING (MSL, Stockholm). Recently, for the first time, the ordered proton beam has been observed on S-LSR (Kyoto University). From analysis of the ESR experimental results we assumed that the ordered state can be observed if the dependence of momentum spread on the particle number can be approximated as ∆P/P ~ Nk for k < 0.3. In pioneering experiments at NAP-M (INP, Novosibirsk) and, in recent years, at COSY (FZJ, Juelich) the phase transition was not observed and the coefficient was found equal k > 0.5. This report presents the experimental investigations of low intensity proton beams on COSY and S-LSR which have the aim to formulate the necessary conditions for the achievement of the ordered state. The experimental studies on S-LSR and numerical simulations with the BETACOOL code were done for the dependence of the momentum spread and transverse emittances on particle number with different misalignments of the magnetic field at the cooler section. As result of both experimental and numerical studies one can conclude that the necessary condition for the phase transition appearance is k < 0.3.

  Typically, several approximations are being used in simulation of electron cooling process, for example, density distribution of electrons is calculated using an analytical expression and distribution in the velocity space is assumed to be Maxwellian in all degrees of freedom. However, in many applications, accurate description of the cooling process based on realistic distribution of electrons is very useful. This is especially true for a high-energy electron cooling system which requires bunched electron beam produced by an Energy Recovery Linac (ERL). Such systems are proposed, for instance, for RHIC and electron – ion collider. To address unique features of the RHIC-II cooler, new algorithms were introduced in BETACOOL code which allow us to take into account local properties of electron distribution as well as calculate friction force for an arbitrary velocity distribution. Here, we describe these new numerical models. Results based on these numerical models are compared with typical approximations using electron distribution produced by simulations of electron bunch through ERL of RHIC-II cooler.

  In the case of the internal pellet target the electron cooling and the stochastic cooling systems cannot compensate the mean energy losses of the ion beam. In bunched ion beams the space charge limit is reduced and the influence of intrabeam scattering is enhanced, which causes a decrease of the luminosity in comparison with a coasting beam. To resolve these problems barrier buckets are proposed for experiments with the pellet target. In the barrier bucket the long ion bunch fills nearly the whole circumference of the storage ring and a rf pulse is applied at the head and at the tail of the bunch. The general goal of the BETACOOL program is to simulate long term processes (in comparison with the ion revolution period) leading to the variation of the ion distribution function in six dimensional phase space. The investigation of the beam dynamics for arbitrary distribution functions is performed using multi particle simulation in the frame of the Model Beam algorithm. In this algorithm the ion beam is represented by an array of macro particles. The heating and cooling processes involved in the simulations lead to a change of the particle momentum components and particle number, which are calculated each time step. The barrier bucket model was developed in the Model Beam algorithm of the BETACOOL program. The trajectory of each model particle is solved analytically for a given barrier bucket voltage amplitude. An invariant of motion is calculated from the current position of the model particle and from the barrier bucket voltage amplitude. Then the phase of the invariant is calculated in accordance with the integration step and the particle gets a new coordinates. The heating and cooling effects are applied in usual procedure of the Model Beam algorithm. First simulation results for the FAIR storage rings are presented.

  The Low Energy Positron Toroidal Accumulator (LEPTA) is under commissioning at JINR. The LEPTA facility is a small positron storage ring equipped with the electron cooling system. The project positron energy is of 4-10 keV. The main goal of the facility is to generate an intense flow of positronium atoms–the bound state of electron and positron. The focusing system of the LEPTA ring after solenoidal magnetic field remeasurement and correction has been tested with pulsed electron beam by elements. Some resonant effects of beam focusing have been observed. The experiments aiming to increase the life time of the circulating electron beam and test the electron cooling elector beam are in progress. Construction of the pulsed injector of the low energy positrons is close to the completion (CPS). The injector is based on 22Na radioactive isotope and consists of the cryogenic positron source, the positron trap and the acceleration section. In the CPS positrons from the 22Na tablet are moderated in the solid neon and transported into the trap, where they are accumulated during about 80 seconds. Then accumulated positrons are extracted by the pulsed electric field and accelerated in electrostatic field up to required energy (the injector as a whole is suspended at a positive potential that corresponds to required positron energy in the range of 4-10 keV). In injection pulse duration is about 300 nsec. The CPS has been tested at the low activity of isotope 22Na tablet (100 MBq). The continuous positron beam with average energy of 1.2 eV and spectrum width of 1 eV has been obtained. The achieved moderation efficiency is about 1 %, that exceeds the level known from literature. The accumulation process in the positron trap was studied with electron flux. The life time of the electrons in the trap is 80 s and capture efficiency is about 0.4. The maximum number of the accumulated particles is 2·10+8 at the initial flux of 5·10+6 electrons per second.
