Abstract

An electron cooler designed at the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics for the Cooler Synchrotron COSY (Juelich, Germany) has been put into operation. The aim of this cooling device is to prevent the beam scattering on an internal target up to the maximal energy of the transmitted beam. The device provides cooling in a strong longitudinal magnetic field generated in a high-voltage area. The motion of electrons in the magnetic field considerably improves the kinetics of electron—ion collisions, because their transverse velocity component (which is very high as a rule) does not participate in the process. First experiments on electron beam cooling on energy 200 MeV were made in 2013. Early in 2014, sessions on electron beam cooling to 200, 350, 580, and 1660 MeV were carried out. In other experiments, deuterium beams were cooled down. Experimental data for the cooling time are compared with the respective theoretical predictions. These results may be used in cooling projects for the Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA), Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Dubna, Russia, and the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR), Darmstadt, Germany.
