  The 2 MeV electron cooling system for COSY-Julich started operation in 2013 years. The cooling process was observed in the wide energy range of the electron beam from 100 keV to 908 keV. Vertical, horizontal and longitudinal cooling was tested at bunched and continuous beams. The cooler was operated with electron current up to 0.9 A. This report deals with the description of the experimental observation of longitudinal electron cooling of DC and bunched proton beam at 2425 MeV/c at COSY.

  One challenge in the development of a relativistic electron cooler is the powering of components, e.g. HV-solenoids, which sit on different potentials within a high voltage vessel and need a floating power supply. Within a design study, BINP SB RAS Novosibirsk has proposed two possibilities to build a power supply in a modular way. The first proposal is to use two cascade transformers per module. One cascade transformer powers 22 small HV-solenoids; the second one should generate the acceleration/deceleration voltage. The cascade transformers are fed by a turbo generator, which is powered by a gas under high pressure which is generated outside of the vessel. The second possibility is to use two big HV-solenoids per module. In this proposal, the HV-solenoids are powered directly by a turbo generator. For both concepts, a suitable turbo generator is essential. A potential candidate for the turbo generator could be the Green Energy Turbine (GET) from the company DEPRAG, which works with dry air and delivers a power of 5 kW. At the Helmholtz-Institut Mainz two GETS are tested. After an introduction, we present our experience with the GET and give an overview of the further road map.

  A high efficiency electron collector for the COSY high voltage electron cooling system was developed. The main feature of the collector is usage of special insertion (Wien filter) before the main collector, which deflects secondary electron flux to special secondary collector, preventing them fly to the electrostatic tube. In first tests of the collector in COSY cooler efficiency of recuperation better then 10-5 was reached. Before assembling of the cooler in Jülich upgrades of the collector and electron gun were made. After the upgrade efficiency better then 10-6 was reached. Design and testing results of the collector are described.

  The status, function and operation parameters of the existing and future electron coolers at GSI and FAIR are presented. We report on the progress of the ongoing recommissioning of the former CRYRING storage ring with its electron cooler at GSI. First systematic results on the cooling of a 400 MeV proton beam during the last ESR beamtime are discussed. Motivated by the demands of the experiments on high stability, precise monitoring and even absolute determination of the velocity of the electrons i.e. the velocity of the electron- cooled ion beams, high precision measurements on the electron cooler voltage at the ESR were carried out towards the refurbishment of the main high-voltage supply of the cooler. Similar concepts are underway for the CRYRING cooler high-voltage system.

  The laser assisted H charge exchange concept is under development at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) as on option for replacing traditional carbon-based foil technology in future accelerators. A laser based stripping system has the potential to alleviate limiting issues with foil technology, paving the way for accumulation of much higher density proton beams. This paper discusses the advantages and limitations of a laser-based stripping system compared with traditional foil-based charge exchange systems for various beam accumulation scenarios, scaling from SNS experience with high power beam injection and calculations of laser stripping parameters. In addition, preparations for an experimental demonstration of laser assisted stripping for microsecond long 1 GeV, H beams are described.

  Stochastic cooling is obligatory for the NICA accelerator facility that is presently under development at JINR, Russia. Cooling will work with the high-intensity bunched beams in the 3-4.5 GeV energy range; all three dimensions will be treated simultaneously. The preparatory experimental work on stochastic cooling is carried out at accelerator Nuclotron (JINR) since 2010. During this work hardware solutions and automation techniques for system adjustment have been worked out and tested. Based on the gained experience the overall design of the NICA stochastic cooling system was also developed. The report describes the results of cooling experiments at Nuclotron, the developed adjustment automation techniques and presents the design of the NICA stochastic cooling system.
