Intrabeam scattering is the scattering of the particles in the beam from each other through the Coulomb forces that act between each pair of particles. It depends on the ion charge and mass like Z/sup 4//A/sup 2/ and is usually larger for the heavier ions. In RHIC, extra aperture is provided to allow the beam to grow transversely because of intrabeam scattering. For Au ions, enough aperture has to be provided to allow the transverse emittances to grow by a factor of 3 over 10 hours. The beam will also grow longitudinally, and enough RF bucket area has to be provided for the longitudinal growth. For Au ions at ..gamma..=100, the beam energy spread will grow by about a factor of 3 over 10 hours. This paper discusses the concept of intrabeam scattering further. 12 figs., 1 tab.
