Optical stochastic cooling for RHIC using optical parametric amplification

We propose using an optical parametric amplifier, with a ∼12   μm wavelength, for optical-stochastic cooling of ^{79}Au ions in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. While the bandwidth of this amplifier is comparable to that of a Ti:sapphire laser, it has a higher average output power. Its wavelengt...
