  In heavy ion synchrotrons like SIS18 at GSI high energetic ions can impact on the beam pipe and release gas molecules. This so called "ion induced desorption" deteriorates the accelerator vacuum and as a consequence the beam life time and luminosity. To minimize the pressure increase it is necessary to understand the physics of ion induced desorption. The elastic recoil ion detection analysis (ERDA) can give a time resolved element specific depth profile of a probe under ion bombardment. A UHV-ERDA setup has been installed at GSI to investigate correlations between desorption and material properties as well as its dose dependant evolution. Recent experiments have shown the influence of the surface state of a sample such as the oxide layer on steel as well as the importance of a high-purity bulk such as in silicon and OFHC copper. We will present the results of gold coated copper in comparison to stainless steel as applicable materials for accelerators.
