Enhanced Optical Cooling of Ion Beams for LHC

The possibility of the enhanced optical cooling (EOC) of Lead ions in LHC is investigated. Non-exponential feature of cooling and requirements to the ring lattice, optical and laser systems are discussed. Comparison with optical stochastic cooling (OSC) is represented.Comment: 4 page

Self-stimulated Emission of Undulator Radiation

We attract attention that interaction of particle in downstream undulator with its own wavelet emitted in upstream undulator could be as strong as with the frictional field in undulator itself. This phenomenon could be used for enhancement of signal from pickup undulators in optical stochastic cooling methods as well as for increase of damping.Comment: 3 pages, 2 figure
