WEOAAB01 | Spin Transport in the International Linear Collider | 1955 |
Funding: Work supported by the U. S. National Science Foundation and the U. S. Department of Energy. Polarized positron and electron beams are ideal for searching for new physics at the International Linear Collider (ILC). In order to properly orient and preserve the polarization of both beams at the Interaction Point (IP) the beam polarization must be manipulated by a series of spin rotators along the beam line. Furthermore, the polarization for both beams should be known with a relative uncertainty of about 0.5% or better, therefore, all sources of depolarization along the ILC should be identified. We report on a spin rotator design for the ILC and polarization studies between Damping Ring extraction and the Interaction Point. |

WEOAAB02 | The Optimized Bunch Compressor for the International Linear Collider | 1958 |
|
||
The International Linear Collider (ILC) utilizes a two stage Bunch Compressor (BC) that compresses the RMS bunch length from 9 mm to 200 to 300 micrometers before sending the electron beam to the Main Linac. This paper reports on the new design of the optimized BC wiggler. It was reduced in length by more than 30 %. The introduction of nonzero dispersion slope in the BC wigglers enabled them to generate the required compression while having a small SR emittance growth, a tunability range of over a factor of 2 in each wiggler, and less than 3 % RMS energy spread throughout the entire system. | ||
