  • Abstract
    An important part of the Fermilab´s Recycler Electron Cooling (REC) project is a recirculation test which is performed using a 5-MV electrostatic accelerator, a Pelletron, with two tubes and a simplified beam line with one 180-degree bend. The main goal of the test is to demonstrate stable operation of a 4.4-MeV, 0.5-A DC electron beam. The paper describes the set-up and the early experimental results
