Cooler ring facilities

Abstract

The principles and history of electron cooling and stochastic cooling are presented, and the characteristics of a number of existing storage rings, for antiproton accumulation and collection, for low energy antiproton physics, and for atomic and nuclear physics are discussed. Finally, three new proposals for the use of phase space cooling at higher energies are mentioned. longitudinal DiCk.UD

Proton-Proton Elastic Scattering Excitation Functions at Intermediate Energies

“…The advent of proton cooler synchrotrons with internal target stations and beams of up to 3300 MeV͞c in momentum p p [13,14] offers the possibility of drastic improvements on this situation. The high luminosities obtained with the recirculating synchrotron beam provide for pp measurements with unprecedented efficiency, which translates into a high degree of precision and statistical accuracy.…”
