Testing various combined function magnet configurations for spin rotation at 18 GeV, and then modifying those configurations to test for effectiveness at 10 and 5 GeV. Solutions exist at each electron energy, but further optimization is ongoing to find a solution for all energies with minimal orbit excursion in the spin rotator. - MADX simulations for design of upstream/rear ion optics in the second IR. Matching to existing optics for the primary IR just beyond the crab cavity location. - Collected and edited inputs for the EIC design update newsletter.
