Cooling simulation and experimental benchmarking for an rf-based electron cooler

The Low Energy Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) Electron Cooler (LEReC) is the world’s first electron cooler using rf-accelerated electron bunches. Recently, the cooling of gold ion beams in RHIC by 1.6 and 2.0 MeV electrons was successfully achieved. Along with the velocity spread and alignme...
