Electron-cooling and SuperLEAR

In this report we present a short description of the project of an electron cooling device for the LEAR machine and the experimental results on a prototype of the electron device

An electron-cooling device in the one MeV energy region

The project of an electron cooling device at 700 KeV electron kinetic energy will be reported. The single parts of the device will be described in detail. Finally, electron beam diagnostics and technical problems will be discussed

Possibilities for high energy electron-cooling in LEAR

In this paper we present a short description of the project of an electron cooling device for LEAR operating as minicollider between 0.6 and 2 GeV/c for each beam, in order to improve the beam quaity and to increase the luminosity

Experimental study of beam optics and energy recovery for a high energy electron-cooling device

The feasibility of a high-energy electron cooling device has been studied through tests on a prototype of the electron device. The apparatus consists of a pulsed ((20÷60) keV, 2 μs) electron gun, a drift region 1 m long and of a depressed collector for recovering the electron energy. Tests on beam optics and energy recovery have been performed, a high-energy recovery efficiency has been attained. Experimental results are discussed in this paper

High energy electron-cooling and related diagnostics

A project of high energy electron cooling for the LEAR facility at CERN, operating as a mini-collider between 0.6 and 2.0 GeV/c, is described. The electron beam should have the following characteristics: beam energy between 0.1 and 1 MeV, current 10A, momentum spread better than 10-3
