  The Collector Ring is planned to be built for efficient cooling of antiprotons and rare isotopes beams. In order to accept hot antiproton beams coming from a separator large aperture magnets are required. This paper examines the effects which, may influence on the beam dynamic because of both large both betatron amplitude oscillations (240 mm mrad) and momentum spread (6%). Using analytic expressions the amplitude-dependent tune shifts driven by sextupole magnets, fringe field of quadrupole magnets and kinematics effects have been calculated. The results are compared with numerical simulations. Tracking studies for the CR operated as an antiproton collector have been performed considering the real shape of the magnetic field of the wide aperture quadrupole. We report on quantitative studies of the effects on the tune spread and its influence on the beam losses.

  For the isochronous mode operation of the CR with reference to have good properties of the mass measurements we study the sources of the beam orbit fluctuation and as consequence power converter requirements for the CR operated at BR=13 Tm. This papaer presents a summary of the different factors causing beam orbit variation, which leads to reduction of the mass measurements precision. The requirements to the power converters have been addressed.

  In the frame of a dedicated ESR machine development the conventional third order resonant slow extraction was theoretically investigated and experimentally tested. The possibility to extract a beam from the ESR by preparing a resonant closed orbit, which has strong nonlinear characteristics, was demonstrated. A third-integer resonance slow extraction has been adopted for the 100 MeV/u Ar beam.

  Machine experiments at the experimental storage ring (ESR) demonstrated that the ring acceptance is strongly restricted by field errors. Higher-order field harmonics of the dipole and quadrupole magnets have been calculated and then used in particle tracking simulations in order to find out the dynamic aperture of the ESR. To benchmark the results of numerical calculations, betatron tune measurements have been performed with a uranium beam at the energy of 400 MeV/u. The results of the magnetic field simulations for the ESR magnets and a comparison between the measured and calculated tune behavioгr are presented.

This paper discus a fast and accurate algorithm for numerical solution of Fokker-Planck equation based on the solution of the parabolic Partial Differential Equations (PDE), where the Crank–Nicholson scheme is used. The stability, convergence and round-off errors of the algorithm are studied. The numerical results on Fokker–Planck equation solution with PDE method are compared with other numerical methods. Using the PDE solver, we will be able to predict the stochastic cooling process of notch filter in storage rings.
