Abstract :
Apertures determined by long-term tracking for 10/sup 6/ turns at beta *=2 m and 6 m and tracking of 100 particles for 1000 turns at beta *=2 m are reported. The multiparticle results are consistent with the aperture determined from 10/sup 6/ turn runs. Finally, the 10/sup 6/ turn results are extrapolated to 3*10/sup 9/ turns to obtain an estimate of the aperture for which particles survive for 10 h in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider.<>
