Intra-Beam Scattering (IBS) is one of the main limiting processes for the performance of low energy ion storage rings, such as the Extra Low ENergy Antiproton ring (ELENA) that is being constructed at CERN. IBS effects limit the achievable equilibrium 6D beam phase space volume during the cooling process, as well as the stored beam intensity. In this contribution we analyze the IBS effects on the beam dynamics of the ELENA ring in detail. Numerical simulations using the codes BETACOOL and MAD-X have been performed to compute the beam life time and the equilibrium phase space parameters with electron cooling in the presence of IBS.

The Extra Low ENergy Antiproton (ELENA) ring will provide seven different experiments at CERN with cooled beams of low energy (~100 keV) antiprotons. As a result, a system of transfer lines is being designed to ensure that each experiment receives a beam with its required properties. In this contribution, particle tracking simulations using MADX are performed to explore the effects on the beam quality and orbit stability of different lattice imperfections, such as element misalignment, electric field and matching errors. The tolerances on the actual values of these quantities are obtained as a guide for the construction of the transfer lines.
