Title: Electron Ion Collider Machine Detector Interface

Conference ·
OSTI ID:1580229

Here we review the major physics requirements, accelerator challenges and some magnet design issues for the Machine Detector Interface (MDI) of an Electron Ion Collider (EIC) Interaction Region (IR). In order to fully exploit the rich physics potential of an EIC, an IR MDI team must balance a complex interplay that arises when combining hadron and electron collider accelerators in an optimized IR. The work described in this paper results from ongoing close collaboration between many people at BNL, JLab and other institutes to realize an EIC as the next, highest priority, future nuclear physics project.
