Abstract
The future electron-ion collider (eRHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory demands a high-current, polarized, bunched electron beam [http://www.bnl.gov/cad/eRhic]. One of the challenges here is to combine the bunched beams generated by multiple cathodes so to address the issue of designing and prototyping a combiner with high-frequency (700 kHz) rotational magnetic fields. This article presents its design, and simulation, and details some of the test results from this unprecedented device.
