eRHIC - A precision electron-proton/ion collider facility at Brookhaven National Laboratory
نویسنده
چکیده
An electron-proton/ion collider facility (eRHIC) is under consideration at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). Such a new facility will require the design and construction of a new optimized detector profiting from the experience gained from the H1 and ZEUS detectors operated at the HERA collider at DESY. The details of the design will be closely coupled to the design of the interaction region, and thus to the machine development work in general. An overview of the accelerator and detector design concepts will be provided.

SimTrack: A compact c++ library for particle orbit and spin tracking in accelerators
SimTrack is a compact c++ library of 6-d symplectic element-by-element particle tracking in accelerators originally designed for head-on beam-beam compensation simulation studies in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory. It provides a 6-d symplectic orbit tracking with the 4th order symplectic integration for magnet elements and the 6-d symplectic synchro-...
متن کاملOverview on the Future Electron-Ion Collider Projects
One of the large new projects envisioned for the future US nuclear physics program is the construction of a high-energy electron ion collider. The motivation for such a machine would be primary directed at the study of the nucleon spin structure using polarized light ions and the study of low x gluon distributions in heavy nuclei. Two candidates coming from the two large DOE nuclear physics fac...
متن کاملTransverse Spin and Rhic
The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory is the first accelerator facility that can accelerate, store and collide spin polarized proton beams. This development enables a physics program aimed at understanding how the spin of the proton results from its quark and gluon substructures. Spin states that are either parallel (longitudinal) or perpendicular (transve...
متن کاملLHeC and eRHIC
This paper is focused on possible designs and predicted performances of two proposed highenergy, high-luminosity electron-hadron colliders: eRHIC at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL, Upton, NY, USA) and LHeC at Organisation Européenne pour la Recherche Nucléaire (CERN, Geneve, Switzerland). The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC, BNL) and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC, CERN) are designed...
متن کاملErhic - Accelerator and Detector Design Studies
The high energy, high intensity polarized electron/positron beam (5 − 10GeV/10GeV) facility (eRHIC) which is under consideration at BNL will collide with the existing RHIC heavy ion (100GeV per nucleon) and polarized proton beam (50−250GeV). This facility will allow to significantly enhance the exploration of fundamental aspects of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the underlying quantum field theo...
