THERMAL ANALYSIS OF THE RHIC ARC DIPOLE MAGNET COLD MASS WITH THE EIC BEAM SCREEN
The EIC will make use of the existing RHIC storage rings with their superconducting (SC) magnet arcs. A stain-less-steel beam screen with co-laminated copper and a thin amorphous carbon (aC) film on the inner surface will be installed in the beam pipe of the SC magnets. The copper will reduce the beam-induced resistive-wall (RW) heating from operation with the higher intensity EIC beams, that if not addressed would make the magnets quench. Limiting the RW heating is also important to achieve an adequately low vacuum level. The aC coating will reduce secondary electron yield which could also cause heating and limit in-tensity. Among all the RHIC SC magnets, the arc dipoles present the biggest challenge to the design and installation of beam screens. The arc dipoles, which make up for 78% (2.5 km) length of all SC magnets in RHIC, expect the larg-est RW heating due to their smallest aperture. These mag-nets are also the longest (9.45 m each), thus experiencing the largest temperature rise over their length, and have a large sagitta (48.5 mm) that increases the difficulty to in-stall the beam screen in place. This paper presents a de-tailed thermal analysis of the magnet-screen system.
