A dual energy electron storage ring cooler was proposed and explored to maintain a good hadron beam quality against intra-beam scattering and all heating sources in a collider. The unique configuration of this concept is that electron beam in the low energy section extracts heat away from the hadron beam through Coulomb interaction while electron beam in the high energy section releases heat through its intrinsic synchrotron radiation damping. The early design employs a magnetized electron beam for achieving a high cooling efficiency. Recently, a non-magnetized cooling electron beam was explored in this dual energy cooler. It could meet the same cooling requirements while lowering the risks. This paper presents study results on design and optimization of a dual energy storage ring cooler and describes the trade-offs between using magnetized and non-magnetized cooling for this approach.
