• Science program demands highly polarized (>70%) light ion beams (p, D, 3He)

• MEIC design choice: figure-8 shape for all ion booster and collider rings• Spin precession in one arc is canceled by that in the other arc

• No preferred periodic spin direction• Energy-independent spin tune

• Simplified polarization control and preservation for all ion species• Needs only small magnetic fields (instead of Siberian Snakes) to control polarization at IPs• The electron ring has a figure-8 shape because it shares a tunnel with the ion ring

• Figure-8 ring is the only practical way we know of to accelerate polarized deuterons

• Present work focuses on design optimization, simulation studies and development of spin rotators

Central detector – the “4th” ILC detector concept

• An iron-free dual-solenoid for the central detector, as proposed in the ILC „4th“ concept LoI, has many attractive features.

• The dual-solenoid concept is applied to the MEIC detector in collaboration with the ILC team.– The MEIC detector is about 1/2 of the ILC one (1/8 of the volume), and has a lower field (3 T).

MEIC Accelerator R&D Toward CD1• Electron cooling

– Electron cooling of medium energy ion beam (by simulations)– ERL circulator cooler design optimization, technology development– Cooling with bunched electron beams – ERL-circulator cooler demo (using JLab FEL facility)

• Interaction region– Optimization of detector integration– Sufficient dynamic aperture with low beta insertions

• Beam Synchronization– A scheme has been developed; SRF cavity frequency tunability study is in progress

• Polarization– Demonstrate superior ion polarization with figure-8 ring– Electron spin matching

• Collective beam effects– (Long time scale) beam-beam with crab crossing– Space charge effects in pre-booster– Electron cloud in the ion rings and mitigation

• Ion Injector complex optimization and beam studies
