Doppler laser cooling has been applied to low-energy (40 keV) Mg ions together with the resonant coupling method* at the S-LSR at ICR, Kyoto University,. The S-LSR storage ring has a high super periodicity of 6, which is preferable from the beam dynamical point of view. At S-LSR one dimensional ordering of proton beam was already realized for the first time**. Active three dimensional laser cooling has been experimentally demonstrated for ions with un-negligible velocity (v/c=0.0019, where c is the light velocity) for the first time. Utilizing the above mentioned characteristics of S-LSR, an approach to realize ultralow emittances has been pursuit. To suppress heating effects, due to intra-beam scattering, the circulating ion beam intensity was reduced by scraping and beam emittances of 1.3·10-11 pi m·rad and 8.5·10-12 pi m·rad (normalized) have been realized for the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively with the 40 keV Mg ion beam at a beam intensity of ~104, which is the lowest emittance ever attained by laser cooling. From MD computer simulations, it is predicted that reduction of the ion number to about 103 is needed to realize a crystalline string.

  Experiments on EMMA have shown that with rapid acceleration (~10 turns) a linear non-scaling FFAG can accelerate through several integer tunes without detrimental effects on the beam [1]. Proton and ion applications such as hadron therapy will necessarily have a slower acceleration rate, so their feasibility depends on how harmful resonance crossing is in this regime. A simple and useful tool to answer such fundamental questions is the S-POD linear Paul trap at Hiroshima University, which can be set up to simulate the dynamics of a beam in an FFAG. We report here results of experiments to explore different resonance crossing speeds, quantify beam loss and study nonlinear effects. We also discuss the implications of these experimental results in terms of limits on acceptable acceleration rates and alignment errors.

  Both Paul ion traps and Penning traps have been employed at Hiroshima University to explore fundamental aspects of space-charge dominated beam dynamics. These compact accelerator-free experiments are based on an isomorphism between non-neutral plasmas in a trap and charged-particle beams traveling in a periodic focusing channel. This talk highlights the recent experimental results on coherent betatron resonances in various strong-focusing lattices, resonance crossing in non-scaling FFAG accelerators, ultra-low emittance beam stability, and halo formation.
