  With the design of the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), a new Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) must be designed to accelerate the electron bunches from 400 MeV up to 18 GeV. An optimized dynamic aperture with preservation of polarization through the energy ramp was found. The codes DEPOL, MAD-X, and BMAD are used in modeling the dynamics and spin preservation. The results will be discussed in this paper.

The electron Ion Collider (eIC) project* has been approved by the Department of Energy to be built at the site of Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). Part of the eIC accelerator complex and more specifically the Rapid Cycling Syncrotron (RCS) which accelerates the electron beam up to 18 GeV and the electron Storage Ring (eSR) which stores the electron beam bunces for collisions with the hadrons, will be built inside the tunnel of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC)**. This paper provides information on the electromagnetic design of the septa magnets which will be employed to inject and extract the beam to and from the two synchrotrons used for the acceleration and storage of the electron beam bunches. The type of the septum is of induction type made o laminated iron and it is similar to the one described in ref.[3] The electromagnetic study is performed by the use of the transient module of the OPERA computer code***.

  The Electron Ion Collider aims to produce luminosities of 1034 cm-2s-1 . The machine will operate over a broad range of collision energies with highly polarized beams. The coexistence of highly radiative electrons and nonradiative ions produce a host of unique effects. Strong hadron cooling will be employed for the final factor of 3 luminosity boost.

  The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) Run 22 physics program consisted of collisions with vertically po- larized proton beams at a single collision point (the STAR detector). During initial startup of the collider, power out- ages damaged two of the coils in one of the RHIC helical dipole snake magnets used for polarization preservation in the Blue ring. That snake was reconfigured for use as a partial snake. We will outline some of the remediating mea- sures taken to maximize polarization transmission in this configuration. These measures included changing the col- liding beam energy from 255 GeV to 254.2 GeV to adjust the spin closed orbit at store and adjustment of the field in the other helical dipole in the Blue ring to improve injection spin matching. Later in the run, the primary motor gener- ator for the AGS (the injector to RHIC) failed and a lower voltage backup had to be used, resulting in a period of lower polarization. Other efforts include detailed measurement of the stable spin direction at store and the commissioning of a machine protection relay system to prevent spurious firing of the RHIC abort kickers.

Two helical full snakes are used in both Blue and Yellow rings of RHIC collider, in order to preserve beam polarization during acceleration to collision energy and polarization lifetime at store. A snake in RHIC is comprised of four 2.4m long modules, powered by pair. During the startup of RHIC Run 22 in December 2021, two successive power dips have caused the 9 o’clock RHIC BlBrookhaven Science Associates, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886 with the U.S. Department of Energy.ue ring snake to loose two of its four modules. In spite of this regrettable loss, it has been possible to maintain near 180deg snake precession, by proper powering of the remaining two modules, as well as, by re-tuning the 3 o’clock sister snake, vertical spin precession axis around the ring and spin tune 1/2. Determining these new settings, in order to salvage polarization with the handicapped Blue snake pair, has required series of numerical simulations, a brief overview is given here.

A tilt in the spin direction from the vertical has been observed for a number of years in the RHIC collider during store. This tilt has been extensively studied by scanning snake strengths, energies and orbital angles during the 2017 polarized proton run. Using a spin transport model, we attempt to model this spin tilt by fitting all the relevant data.

The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) project* has been approved by the Department of Energy to be built at the site of Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). The goal of the project is the collision of energetic (of many GeV/amu) ion species with electron bunches of energies up to 18 GeV. The EIC includes two electron rings, the Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) which accelerates the electron beam up to 18 GeV, and the Electron Storage Ring (ESR) which stores the electron beam for collisions with hadron beam, both to be installed in the same tunnel as the Hadron Storage Ring (HSR). This paper discusses the layout and the beam optics of the injection/extraction beam lines the electron rings and the beam optics of the transfer line from the RCS to the ESR ring.

The Electron Ion Collider (EIC) to be built will collide polarized electrons and ions up to 140 GeV center of mass with a time averaged polarization of 70% and luminosity up to 1034 cm-2 s-1. The EIC’s Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) will accelerate 2 polarized electrons bunches from 400 MeV to energies of 5, 10 and 18 GeV and inject them into the EIC’s Electron Storage Ring. The design of the RCS has progressed to accommodate a larger magnet free section for the detectors and to meet the space requirements of the RHIC tunnel. We present progress on full 6D spin tracking studies of the RCS with the updated lattice using the Zgoubi code to include magnet misalignments, field errors and corrections as well as radiative effects.
