In the current MEIC design, the ion collider ring needs to be cooled by a bunched electron beam of up to 200 mA 55 MeV, with the possibility to upgrade to 1.5 A. Although it?s not impossible to design and build an ERL to provide such a beam, the technical risk and cost associated with such an ERL will be very high. An alternative is to recirculate the electron bunches in a ring for several turns until the bunch?s quality is degraded, reducing the beam current in the ERL by a factor of up to 25. This scheme requires a pair of fast kickers that kick one in every 10 or 25 bunches. In this paper, we will analyze the dynamics of a harmonic stripline kicker for this application, and compare to the harmonic resonator kicker.
