| Abstract | Electron polarization in a storage ring is subject to two very long term effects: Sokolov-Ternov polarization and depolarization by diffusion. This leads to an equilibrium state over a very long time scale, and, simulation-wise, is highly CPU-time and -memory consuming. Simulations aimed at determining optimal ring storage energy in an electron-ion collider in this context, are always based on tracking bunches with thousands of particles, and in addition for short time scales in comparison, due to HPC limitations. Based on considerations of ergodicity of electron bunch dynamics in the presence of synchrotron radiation, and on the very slow depolarization aimed at in a collider, tracking a single particle instead is investigated, here. This saves a factor of more than 2 orders of magnitudes in the parameter CPU-time*Memory-allocation, it allows much longer tracking and thus improved accuracy on the evaluation of polarization and time constants. The concept is illustrated with polarization lifetime and equilibrium polarization simulations at the eRHIC electron-ion collider. | |
