Intrabeam scattering studies with large-emittance-ratio ion beams in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, and implications for the Electron-Ion Collider

Yun Luo, Brendan Lepore, Kevin Mernick +2

The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), to be constructed at Brookhaven National Laboratory, will collide polarized, high-energy electron beams with hadron beams, achieving peak luminosit…
