  Antiproton physics and experiments with rare isotope beams are major research fields at FAIR. Antiproton physics requires the accumulation of high intensity antiproton beams. The accumulation of up to 1011 antiprotons at 3 GeV is foreseen. This will be accomplished by the combination of the collector ring CR for stochastic precooling and the specialized accumulator ring RESR. The accumulation scheme in the RESR is based on the usage of a stochastic cooling system. The requirements of this cooling system strongly affect the magnetic structure of the RESR. For experiments with short-lived rare isotope beams the RESR serves the task of fast deceleration. Precooled rare isotope beams will be injected at 740 MeV/u and then decelerated to energies between 100 and 400 MeV/u in less than 1 s. This contribution presents the ring design and lattice studies relevant for both tasks of the ring as well as a description of the antiproton accumulation scheme.

  The accurate description of beam-target effects is important for the prediction of operation conditions in terms of high luminosity and beam quality in the FAIR facility at GSI. Numerical models have been developed to evaluate beam dynamics in ion storage rings, where strong cooling in combination with a dense target is applied. First systematic benchmarking experiments were carried out at the existing ESR storage ring at GSI. The influence of the internal target on the beam parameters is demonstrated. Comparison of experimental results with simple models describing the energy loss of the beam particles in the target as well as with more sophisticated simulations with the BETACOOL code will be given.

  The Collector Ring is a storage ring in the framework of the FAIR project. It has the purpose of stochastic precooling of both rare isotope and antiproton beams and of measurung nuclear masses in an isochronous setting. The paper discusses progress in the development of magnet systems, rf systems, injection/extraction strategies and stochastic cooling systems. Finally it is discussed how to confirm the predicted performance of the slotline electrodes developed recently for stochastic cooling.

  The New Experimental Storage Ring (NESR) of the FAIR project has two major modes of operation. These are storage of heavy ion beams for internal experiments and deceleration of highly charged ions and antiprotons before transfer into a low energy experimental area. The heavy ion beams can be either stable highly charged ions or rare isotope beams at an energy of 740 MeV/u selected in a magnetic separator. The antiprotons come with an energy of 3 GeV from the production target, they are pre-cooled and accumulated in a storage ring complex. The magnetic structure of the NESR has been optimized for large transverse and longitudinal acceptance by detailed dynamic aperture calculations. This will allow storage of multi-component beams with a large spread of charge to mass ratio, corresponding to a large spread in magnetic rigidity. Highest phase space density of the stored beams is provided by an electron cooling system, which for ions covers the full energy range and for antiprotons allows intermediate cooling during the deceleration process. For experiments with short-lived isotopes the cooling time and the time of deceleration will be optimized to a few seconds.
