Aschenauer EIC EW Meeting, W&M, VA, May  Two designs of the IR exist for both low luminosity (~ 3x10 33 ) and high luminosity (~ 2x10 34 ) depends on distance IR to focusing quads  By using a crossing angle (and crab cavities), one can have energy- independent geometries for the IRs and no synchrotron radiation in the detectors  Big advantage in detecting particles at low angle  can go as low as 0.75 o at hadron side  |  | < 5.5 Beam-p: y ~ 6.2 m eRHIC IR1 p /Ae Energy (max), GeV325/13020 Number of bunches16674 nsec Bunch intensity (u), Bunch charge, nC324 Beam current, mA Normalized emittance, 1e-6 m, 95% for p / rms for e Polarization, %7080 rms bunch length, cm β *, cm55 Luminosity, cm -2 s x (including hour-glass effect h=0.851) Luminosity for 30 GeV e-beam operation will be at 20% level

(M)eRHIC Luminosities E.C. Aschenauer EIC EW Meeting, W&M, VA, May 2010 Old Design: for MeRHIC without CEC 4 x 250: 1x10 32 cm -2 s -1 for MeRHIC with CEC 4 x 250: 1x10 33 cm -2 s -1 for eRHIC with CEC: 20 x 325:2.8x10 33 cm -2 s -1 New Design: for eRHIC with CEC: 20 x 325 with b* of 5cm: 1.4x10 34 cm -2 s -1 as the the luminosity does not depend on the energy of electron beam you can write it as for eRHIC (new design): * E p /325 cm -2 s -1 so you can easily scale it going to 20x100 for example so for eRHIC assuming 50% operations efficiency one week corresponds to 0.5 * (s in a week) * (1.4x10 34 cm -2 s -1 ) = 4*10 39 cm -1 so 4000pb -1 an operations efficiency of 50% is low, but conservative at this moment. For EIC systematic errors will be the limiting factor For EIC systematic errors will be the limiting factor i.e., g 1, F L,  g,  q i.e., g 1, F L,  g,  q 9

Questions about QCD  Confinement of color, or why are there no free quarks and gluons at a long distance? A very hard question to answer  What is the quark-gluon structure inside a hadron? Probes to “see” and “locate” the quarks and gluons, without disturbing them or interfering with their dynamics?  How do quarks and gluons form color neutral hadrons? Probes to “monitor” the hadronization process?  How to understand the spin of a hadron? Hadrons are a composite particle of quarks and gluons Hadrons are a composite particle of quarks and gluons  What is the physics behind the QCD mass scale? E.C. Aschenauer EIC EW Meeting, W&M, VA, May  It represents the difference between QED and QCD  Can’t “see” it directly, but, it is behind the answers to all these questions it is behind the answers to all these questions The key to the solution The Gluon Lets try to answer: Lets try to answer:  What is the role of gluons and gluon self-interactions in nucleons and nuclei?  What is the internal landscape of the nucleons?  What is the nature of the spin of the proton?  What is the three-dimensional spatial landscape of nucleons?  What governs the transition of quarks and gluons into pions and nucleons? Lets try to answer: Lets try to answer:  What is the role of gluons and gluon self-interactions in nucleons and nuclei?  What is the internal landscape of the nucleons?  What is the nature of the spin of the proton?  What is the three-dimensional spatial landscape of nucleons?  What governs the transition of quarks and gluons into pions and nucleons?

The √s vs. minimum luminosity landscape E.C. Aschenauer EIC EW Meeting, W&M, VA, May 2010 semi-inclusive DIS inclusive DIS Diffraction electro-weak 4x100 10x100 20x100 20x250 exclusive DIS (DVCS) exclusive DIS (PS & VM) 4x50 H1/ZEUS: ~10 31 cm -2 s -1 Hermes: 5x W 2 -dependence of c.s. neglected 11

Detector Requirements from Physics  Detector must be multi-purpose  Need the same detector for inclusive (ep -> e’X), semi-inclusive (ep -> e’hadron(s)X), exclusive (ep -> e’  p) reactions and eA interactions  Able to run for different energies (and ep/A kinematics) to reduce systematic errors reduce systematic errors  Ability to tag the struck nucleus in exclusive and diffractive eA reactions  Needs to have large acceptance  Cover both mid- and forward-rapidity  particle detection to very low scattering angle; around 1 o in e and p/A direction  particle identification is crucial  e, , K, p, n over wide momentum range and scattering angle  excellent secondary vertex resolution (charm)  small systematic uncertainty for e,p-beam polarization and luminosity measurement E.C. Aschenauer EIC EW Meeting, W&M, VA, May

Momentum vs. theta of scat. electron Proton Energy 50 GeV 100 GeV 250 GeV Electron Energy 4 GeV 10 GeV 20 GeV 4 GeV 10 GeV 20 GeV E.C. Aschenauer EIC EW Meeting, W&M, VA, May 2010 As more symmetric beam energies as more the scattered lepton goes forward 13

Momentum vs. angle of pions Same CM energy (63.3 GeV) What do we see:  For DIS: distribution is more “smeared” as energy balance becomes more symmetric  For diffractive: majority of pions at easily accessible angles, either forward or backward depending on proton/electron energy E.C. Aschenauer EIC EW Meeting, W&M, VA, May

t for exclusive VM vs p’ angle E.C. AschenauerEIC EW Meeting, W&M, VA, May x 50 4 x x 250 very strong correlation between t and “recoiling” proton angle  Roman pots need to be very well integrated in the lattice well integrated in the lattice  resolution on t! t=(p 4 -p 2 ) 2 = 2[(m p in.m p out )-(E in E out - p z in p z out )] t=(p 3 –p 1 ) 2 = m ρ 2 -Q 2 - 2(E γ* E ρ -p x γ* p x ρ -p y γ* p y ρ -p z γ* p z ρ ) 16

A detector integrated into IR E.C. Aschenauer EIC EW Meeting, W&M, VA, May ZDC FPD  Dipoles needed to have good forward momentum resolution  Solenoid no magnetic r ~ 0  DIRC, RICH hadron identification  , K, p  high-threshold Cerenkov  fast trigger for scattered lepton  radiation length very critical  low lepton energies FED a lot of space for polarimetry and luminosity measurements

Can we detect DVCS-protons and Au break up p E.C. Aschenauer EIC EW Meeting, W&M, VA, May  track the protons through solenoid, quads and dipole with hector proton track  p=10% proton track  p=20% proton track  p=40% Equivalent to fragmenting protons from Au in Au optics (197/79:1 ~2.5:1) DVCS protons are fine, need more optimization for break-up protons

Summary  A lot of change/progress since the last EIC Collaboration meeting  new eRHIC design more elegant and staging is very naturaly included  working on costing of the new version  test many detector options eSTAR, ePHENIX and a dedicated detector eSTAR & ePHENIX look promising with some restrictions  need to adjust the dedicated detector design fully to the new IR design  will integrate luminosity and e/p-polarisation measurements on the next step  Need input from the EW community what is required for detector, machine and IR design  Submitted first detector LDRD to BNL  high resolution vertex detector based on CMOS pixel E.C.
