An electron injector for the Electron-Ion Collider based on proton-driven plasma wakefield acceleration
J. P. Farmer, H. Jaworska, A. Caldwell +5
We describe an electron bunch injector scheme based on proton-driven plasma wakefield acceleration for the Electron-Ion Collider. The proton bunches needed to drive the plasma wake…

Dynamic Focusing to Suppress Emittance Transfer in Crab-Crossing Flat Beam Collisions
Derong Xu, J Scott Berg, Michael M Blaskiewicz +8
Flat hadron beam collisions, though expected to enhance peak luminosity by about an order of magnitude, have not yet been demonstrated. Our study reveals a critical limitation: rea…

Advancing Electron Injection Dynamics and Mitigation Approaches in the Electron-Ion Collider Swap-out Injection Scheme
Derong Xu, Ferdinand Willeke, Michael M. Blaskiewicz +2
The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will use swap-out injection scheme for the Electron Storage Ring (ESR) to overcome limitations in polarization lifetime. However, the pursuit of hig…
