Optical principles of beam transport for relativistic electron cooling
In conventional low energy electron coolers, the electron beam is immersed in a continuous solenoid, which provides a calm and tightly focused beam in a cooling section. While suitable for low energies, the continuity of the accompanying magnetic field is hardly realizable at relativistic energies....

| Summary: | In conventional low energy electron coolers, the electron beam is immersed in a continuous solenoid, which provides a calm and tightly focused beam in a cooling section. While suitable for low energies, the continuity of the accompanying magnetic field is hardly realizable at relativistic energies. We consider the possibility of using an extended solenoid in the gun and the cooling section only, applying lumped focusing for the rest of the electron transport line. |
