	For the proposed High Energy Storage Ring (HESR) at FAIR, it is foreseen to install an electron cooling device with a beam current of 3 A and a beam energy of 8 MeV. A test set-up was built at Helmholtz-Insitut Mainz (HIM) to conduct a feasibility study. One of the main goals of the test set-up is to evaluate the gun design proposed by TSL (Uppsala) with respect to vacuum handling, EM fields and the resulting beam parameters. Another purpose of the set-up is to achieve an energy recuperation efficiency of 1 - 10^-5. To measure this quantity, a Wien filter has to be employed, which will also prove capable of mitigating collection losses. The current status of the project will be presented.

For the proposed High Energy Storage Ring (HESR) at FAIR, it is foreseen to install an electron cooling device with a beam current of 3 A and a beam energy of 8 MeV. A test set-up was built at Helmholtz-Insitut Mainz (HIM) to conduct a feasibility study. One of the main goals of the test set-up is to evaluate the gun design proposed by TSL (Uppsala) with respect to vacuum handling, EM fields and the resulting beam parameters. Another purpose of the set-up is to achieve an energy recuperation efficiency of 1 - 10^-5. To measure this quantity, a Wien filter has to be employed, which will also prove capable of mitigating collection losses. The current status of the project will be presented.
