Abstract

We describe our design of a lattice for the electron-ion collider of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (eRHIC) wherein the electrons undergo multiple passes through recirculating linacs (ERLs) sited within its existing tunnel. We modified RHIC's present interaction regions (IRs) where the electron ions collide to ensure its large luminosity. The eRHIC's staging ally will elevate sequentially the electron energy from 4 to 20 (30) GeV as we build and install the superconducting cavities. The synchrotron radiation from electrons at the IRs falls as they arrive directly into the collisions, while ions and protons come with a 10-mrad crossing angle using the crab cavities.
