A Perfect Electrode to Suppress Secondary Electrons inside the Magnets

An electron cloud due to multipacting in the positron ring of B-factories and the damping ring of the International Linear Collider (ILC) is one of the main concerns. The electron cloud in the drift region can be suppressed by a solenoid. However, the solenoid doesn't work inside a magnet. Numerical studies show that there is strong multipacting in a dipole magnet of a B-factory positron ring. Electrons also can be trapped inside quadrupole and sextupole magnets. The electron cloud from dipole magnets and wigglers in the positron damping ring of the ILC gives a critical limitation on the choice of a circumference of the damping ring, which directly results in a choice of two 6 km rings as the baseline for the positron damping ring. Various electrodes have been studied using the program CLOUDLAND. Our studies show that a wire type of the electrode with a few hundred voltages works perfectly to kill the secondary electrons inside various magnets
