| Abstract | : | RHIC is reported to be the first heavy ion machine to go through transition using super-conducting magnets. This is a difficult because it requires ramping the magnets quickly to avoid beam instabilities and a fast ramp is hard to do with super-conducting magnets. So what is transition? Why does it cause beam instabilities? And why is gamma_T = 23 at RHIC? |
