Hadron Coolers at CERN

  • Published:
Atomic Energy Aims and scope

Abstract

Two types of cooling (electronic and stochastic) are used in the AD (antiproton decelerator) for efficient deceleration and to provide the required parameters of the antiproton beam. In the not too distant future electronic cooling will be used in LEIR (low-energy ion ring) to accumulate ions in the LHC (large hadron collider). Both cooling systems are described.
