17. Summary Two versions for eRHIC have been developed: Ring-ring: lower risk (ready to go), lower luminosity performance, 10 GeV e Linac-ring: higher risk (new concept), higher luminosity performance, 20 GeV e Preliminary cost estimate is similar. Decision on what to build to supply polarized leptons will be driven by a number of considerations, among them experimental requirements, cost and timeline. Modest R&D over the next five years will reduce technical risk, especially for linac-ring option. There are phasing possibilities for both options.
