Status and performance of the IUCF 270 keV electron cooling system

TLDR
The IUCF 270-keV electron cooling system has demonstrated collection efficiencies of 100% (+0/-2 p.p.m.) operating with a 2-A electron beam (0.4 A/cm/sup 2/).
Abstract
The IUCF (Indiana University Cyclotron Facility) 270-keV electron cooling system has demonstrated collection efficiencies of 100% (+0/-2 p.p.m.) operating with a 2-A electron beam (0.4 A/cm/sup 2/). In addition, a very complete set of longitudinal drag rate measurements have been completed. These measurements span rest frame electron-proton velocity differences of over three orders of magnitude and include the region where the average longitudinal electron-proton velocity difference is less than the electron beam longitudinal velocity spread (a region which has not previously been measured). No obvious Schottky signal suppression (evidence of beam crystallization) has been observed for low-intensity cooled proton beams, though many interesting collective phenomena have been observed for high-intensity cooled proton beams. >

Beam property measurements in the IUCF cooler ring

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the high intensity stored beam stability limits of the IUCF (Indiana University Cyclotron Facility) cooler-storage ring and found that the tune shift is as large as about 0.3 in magnitude, depending on the degree to which the beam is cooled.

Longitudinal phase‐space measurements at IUCF

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used turn-by-turn beam tracking on ten-turn intervals, where the beam phase relative to the rf and the closed-orbit position in a high-dispersion region were measured.

Observation of magnetized cooling in the IUCF cooler

TL;DR: In this article, the longitudinal drag rate (R/sub D/, the rate at which the electron beam can change the energy of the proton beam) for 45-MeV protons with longitudinal velocities relative to the electron was measured in the range from 1*10/sup -7/ >
