Cooling rates and intensity limitations for laser-cooled ions at relativistic energies

Abstract: The ability of laser cooling for relativistic ion beams is investigated. For this purpose, the excitation of relativistic ions with a continuous wave and a pulsed laser is analyzed, utilizing the optical Bloch equations. The laser cooling force is derived in detail and its scaling with the relativistic factor γ is discussed. The cooling processes with a continuous wave and a pulsed laser system are investigated. Optimized cooling scenarios and times are obtained in order to determine the required properties of… Show more

“…In this regard a commissioning beam-time with Li-like carbon ions at the experimental storage ring (ESR) at the GSI Helmholtz Centre in Darmstadt provided the possibility to test new laser systems and a novel detection system for extreme UV (XUV) photons. The laser systems will be required for laser cooling of bunched relativistic ion beams, as it is being planned for the SIS100 synchrotron at FAIR 1 , 2 . For that purpose, continuous-wave (cw) and pulsed laser systems are developed by groups at the TU Darmstadt 3 and the HZDR/TU Dresden 4 , respectively.…”

“…Doppler laser cooling of moving ions was established in the PALLAS experiments [27,28] and has been demonstrated at GSI using RF potentials as a counter force to a single laser system [29]. The amount of detuning required for high Doppler shift raises a challenge for relativistic beams [30,31]. More research and new ideas are needed to find ways to perform 3D cooling of moving ions, to get to the temperatures needed to use these ions for QIS applications.…”

“…Yet the most studied and used process parameters are the scanning speed, hatch spacing, laser power, and layer thickness [21][22][23]. Using all the major process parameters, a concept known as volumetric energy density (VED) is employed to examine the physical quantities, such as the melt pool dimensions and microstructures [17,24].…”
