21. 21  eRHIC design is using the idea of a “Gatling” electron gun with a combiner?  20 cathodes  20 cathodes  one proton bunch collides always with electrons from one specific cathode  one proton bunch collides always with electrons from one specific cathode Important questions:  What is the expected fluctuation in polarisation from cathode to cathode in the gatling gun  from Jlab experience 3-5%  What fluctuation in bunch current for the electron do we expect  limited by Surface Charge, need to see what we obtain from prototype gun  Do we expect that the collision deteriorates the electron polarization. A problem discussed for ILC A problem discussed for ILC  influences where we want to measure polarization in the ring  How much polarization loss do we expect from the source to flat top in the ERL.  Losses in the arcs have been significant at SLC  Is there the possibility for a polarization profile for the lepton bunches  if then in the longitudinal direction can be circumvented with 352 MHz RF Challenge: Integrate Compton polarimeter into IR and Detector design together with Luminosity monitor and low Q 2 -tagger  longitudinal polarization  Energy asymmetry  segmented Calorimeter  to measure possible transverse polarization component  position asymmetry E.C.
