In preparation for a demonstration of optical stochastic cooling in the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR) we have developed a particle tracking simulation to study the relevant beam dynamics. Optical radiation emitted in the pickup undulator gives a momentum kick to that same particle in the kicker undulator. The optics of the electron bypass from pickup to kicker couples betatron amplitude and momentum offset to path length so that the momentum kick reduces emittance and momentum spread. Nearby electrons contribute an incoherent noise. Layout of the bypass line is presented that accommodates optics with a range of transverse and longitudinal cooling parameters. The simulation is used to determine cooling rates and their dependence on bunch and lattice parameters for bypass optics with distinct emittance and momentum acceptance.

In this brief report we pointed at mistake in paper A. Zholents, Damping Force in the Transit-Time Method of Optical Stochastic Cooling, PRLST. Mar 1, 2012. 2 pp. Published in Phys.Rev.ST Accel. Beams 15 (2012) 032801.
Ultra-fast stochastic cooling would be desirable in certain applications, for example, in order to boost final luminosity in a muon collider or neutrino factory, where short particle lifetimes severely limit the total time available to reduce beam phase space. But fast cooling requires very high-bandwidth amplifiers so as to limit the incoherent heating effects from neighboring particles. A method of transit-time optical stochastic cooling has been proposed which would employ high-gain, high-bandwidth, solid-state lasers to amplify the spontaneous radiation from the charged particle bunch in a strong-field magnetic wiggler. This amplified light is then fed back onto the same bunch inside a second wiggler, with appropriate phase delay to effect cooling. But before amplification, the usable signal from any one particle is quite small, on average much less than one photon per pass, suggesting that the radiation should be treated quantum mechanically, and raising doubts as to whether this weak signal even contains sufficient phase information necessary for cooling, and whether it can be reliably amplified to provide the expected cooling on each pass. A careful examination of the dynamics, where the radiation and amplification processes are treated quantum mechanically, indicates that fast cooling is in principle possible, with cooling rates which essentially agree with classical calculations, provided that the effects of the unavoidable amplifier noise are included. Thus, quantum mechanical uncertainties do not present any insurmountable obstacles to optical cooling, but do establish a lower limit on cooling rates and achievable emittances.
A previous publication has shown that the in-plane polarization (IPP) component of a polarized 0.97-GeV/c deuteron beam in the COSY storage ring may acquire a polarization half-life in excess of 1000 s through a combination of beam bunching, electron cooling (prior to any spin manipulation), sextupole field adjustment, and a limitation of the beam intensity. This paper documents further tests pointing to additional gains in the IPP lifetime if cooling is active throughout the beam store.
This report describes a concept of an EIC cooling system, based on a proven induction linac technology with a dc electron beam. The system would operate in a full energy range of proton beams (100 - 270 GeV) and would provide 50-100 A electron beams, circulating in a cooler ring for 5 ms. Every 5 ms a new electron pulse would be injected into the cooler ring to provide continuous cooling at collisions. Operations with a 10-ms cycle is possible but it will reduce the cooling rates by ~30$%$. The system is capable of delivering the required performance in the entire EIC energy range with emittance cooling times of less than 1-2 hours.
Optical stochastic cooling (OSC) is a promising technique for the cooling of dense particle beams. Its operation at optical frequencies enables obtaining a much larger bandwidth compared to the wellknown microwave-based stochastic cooling. In the OSC undulator radiation generated by a particle in an upstream pickup undulator is amplified and focused at the location of a downstream kicker undulator. Inside the kicker, a particle interacts with its own radiation field from the pickup. The resulting interaction produces a longitudinal kick with its value depending on the particles momentum which, when correctly phased, yields to longitudinal cooling. The horizontal cooling is achieved by introducing a coupling between longitudinal and horizontal degrees of freedom. Vertical cooling is achieved by coupling between horizontal and vertical motions in the ring. In this paper, we present formulae for computation of the corrective kick and validate them against numerical simulations performed using a wave-optics computer program.
