  The FAIR synchrotron SIS100 which is under construction will provide heavy ion and proton beams of high intensity with fast and slow extraction. All extraction devices, including an internal emergency beam dump system, are installed within one straight section. This way, expected systematic beam loss is kept in a relatively small area of the synchrotron. In this area, it is rather challenging to protect components against high radiation fields, to keep XHV conditions, and to allow for maintenance of highly activated components to assure reliable beam operation. In this contribution, the technical measures to fulfill the requirements for the extraction straight section of SIS100 will be presented. These include remote controlled devices to move apart magnet yokes for the purpose of placing beam pipe heater; dedicated star-shaped vacuum chambers with integrated collimators and NEG-panels to reduce pressure bumps due to lost particles behind the electrostatic septa; a high-power multi-stage vertical extraction septum including a variable horizontal deflection.

  In the heavy ion synchrotron SIS18 at GSI an ion catcher system has been installed to provide low desorption surfaces for ionization beam loss to reduce dynamic vacuum effects. Medium charge state heavy ions can change their charge state in collission with residual gas molecules. Those ions are cought by the ion catcher system. The ion catcher blocks are mounted electrically insulated, such that it is possible, to directly measure the electrical current, induced by the incident ions. Changes in vacuum density during the acceleration cycle and also the energy dependent decrease of the cross sections for electron loss and electron capture can be measured by this system. Different ion catcher currents, measured during the operation with U28+, and their interpretation are presented. The measurement of ionization beam loss is a valuable tool to benchmark the dynamic vacuum simulations.

Heavy-ion impact induced gas desorption is the key process that drives beam intensity limiting dynamic vacuum losses. Minimizing this effect, by providing low desorption yield surfaces, is an important issue for maintaining a stable ultra high vacuum during operation with medium charge state heavy ions. For room temperature targets, investigation shows a scaling of the desorption yield with the beam's near-surface electronic energy loss, i.e. a decrease with increasing energy*,**. An optimized material for a room temperature ion-catcher has been found. But for the planned superconducting heavy-ion synchrotron SIS100 at the FAIR accelerator complex, the ion catcher system has to work in a cryogenic environment. Desorption measurements with the prototype cryocatcher for SIS100 showed an unexpected energy scaling***, which needs to be explained. Understanding this scaling might lead to a better suited choice of material, resulting in a lower desorption yield. An experimental setup for systematic examination of this scaling is presented. The cryogenic beam-induced desorption yield of several materials at different temperatures is examined.

  The upgrade of the existing heavy ion synchrotron SIS18 as booster for the FAIR synchrotron SIS100 has been partly completed. With the achieved technical status, a major increase of the accelerated number of heavy ions could be reached. This progress especially demonstrates the feasibilty of acceleration of medium charge state heavy ions with high intensity and and the succesfull control of dynamic vaccuum effects and correlated charge exchange loss. Two further upgrade measures, the installation of additional MA acceleration cavities and the exchange of the main dipole power converter are in progress. For the FAIR synchrotron SIS100 all major components with long production times have been ordered. With several pre-series components, outstanding technical developments have been completed and the readiness for series production reached. The technical project status will be summarized.

  The quality of the beam vacuum is crucial for the stable operation of synchrotrons with high intensity heavy ions. Cryogenic surfaces are capable of pumping residual gases by cryocondensation until the saturated vapor pressure (SVP) is reached. Even at LHe temperatures the SVP of hydrogen is too high. If the surface coverage is sufficiently low, residual gas can also be bound by cryosorption, yielding in acceptable low pressures. These pumping capabilities can be described by two parameters, both dependent on surface temperature and coverage: The sticking probability (SP), that is the chance of an impinging gas particle to be bound, and the mean sojourn time (MST) of a particle on the surface. To acquire these parameters, an experimental setup is currently built at GSI. It consists of a cryogenic chamber, cooled by a cold head and a warm part with vacuum diagnostics and gas inlet. It allows monitoring the pumping speed and also the equilibrium pressure of the cryogenic part from which the SP and the MST can be deducted. The results will be used to further improve the accuracy of the dynamic vacuum simulations in cryogenic areas of particle accelerators.
