Larson, D J

Electron cooling at low energies (..gamma.. slightly greater than one) has been shown to be an extremely effective means to increase the phase space density of proton beams. This document starts with a review of the progress made in low energy electron cooling, followed by a brief look at the parameters of intermediate energy electron cooling. (..gamma.. of five to ten). The results of an emittance measurement done on an electrostatic accelerator are presented indicating that such a device would be ideal for intermediate energy electron cooling. Application of intermediate energy electron cooling to the Fermilab antiproton source is theoretically studied. Lastly, the final equilibrium antiproton emittances obtainable are estimated.
