Phase space cooling and pp colliding beams of Fermilab

Present high energy synchrotrons at CERN and Fermilab could be operated as pp storage rings with a center-of-mass energy of some 800 GeV. The Fermilab Energy Doubler/Saver, in addition, would be quite suitable as a high performance storage ring, producing collisions at 2 TeV in the center-of-mass. I...

Sumario:Present high energy synchrotrons at CERN and Fermilab could be operated as pp storage rings with a center-of-mass energy of some 800 GeV. The Fermilab Energy Doubler/Saver, in addition, would be quite suitable as a high performance storage ring, producing collisions at 2 TeV in the center-of-mass. In order to achieve useful luminosity it is necessary to: (1) collect antiprotons from approximately 80 GeV protons colliding on a stationary target, (2) cool the phase space of the initially diffuse p's, and (3) accumulate the cooled p's over cycles. Phase space cooling is described. (8 refs).
