| Abstract |
The staged approach to electron cooling proposed for Jefferson Lab's Medium Energy Electron-Ion Collider (MEIC) utilizes bunched beam electron cooling with a single-pass energy recovery linac (ERL) for cooling in the ion collider ring. Possible luminosity upgrades make use of an ERL and full circulator ring and will require ultra-fast kickers that are beyond current technology. A novel approach to generating the necessary ultra fast (ns-level) RF kicking pulse involves the summation of specific subharmonics of the cooling electron bunch frequency; the resultant kicking pulse is then naturally constrained to have rise and fall times equal to the electron bunch frequency. The uniformity of such a pulse and its effects on the beam dynamics of the cooling electron bunch are discussed.
