  COSY is a versatile racetrack-type synchrotron accelerating protons and deuterons in a range of rigidity between 1 T m and 11 T m. Circulating beam can be slowly extracted on a third order resonance and channeled towards different users. New users of the COSY beam have presented new challenges with specific requests, most notably in term of beam shape. This in turn drove a strong interest to develop and improve characterization and modeling methods in the COSY extraction beam line. In this contribution we will present the different beam characterization methods used and their limitations. We will then discuss the modeling of the line and the importance of an accurate and reliable model of the extraction line. Some of the latest beam measurements are presented and compared to modeled results.

  The COoler SYnchrotron in Jülich is a well suited accelerator for a precursor experiment on the direct measurement of the Electric Dipole Moment (EDM) of the deuteron (see* and references within). It provides polarized and unpolarized proton and deuteron beams in the momentum range between 0.3 GeV/c and 3.65 GeV/c**, allows for phase space cooling and is highly flexible with respect to ion-optical settings***. Unfortunately, a model independent linear optics measurement is not possible and so far the existing MAD-X model of COSY does not provide an agreement with the actual machine parameters that is required by future experiments, such as the EDM experiment. Significant deviations with respect to the working point and linear optics have been reported****. As shown in*****, a MAD-X based LOCO (Linear Optics from Closed Orbits) algorithm in a C++ program was successfully developed and carefully benchmarked. This contribution presents the application of the new program on measured ORM data and its capabilities in calibrating linear optics as well as reconstructing machine imperfections such as gradient errors of quadrupole magnets and calibration factors of BPMs and steerers.

  The Cooler Synchrotron (COSY) at Forschungszentrum Jülich is currently carrying out the preparation for a direct measurement of the electric Dipole Moment (EDM) of the deuteron using an RF Wien filter*,**. In a magnetic storage ring with the spin vector aligned along the direction of motion, the EDM manifests in a buildup of the vertical spin component. Besides this signal, radial magnetic fields due to a distortion of the vertical closed orbit can produce a similar signal. This signal is a systematic limit of the proposed measurement procedure. Based on simulation studies***, a vertical closed orbit distortion with a RMS smaller than 0.1 mm is required to achieve a sensitivity of 10-19 e.cm or better. In order to accomplish this challenging goal, a slow orbit feedback system was proposed and recently commissioned at COSY. The design and commissioning results will be presented, and the future plan will also be discussed.

  The High Energy Storage Ring (HESR) is part of the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) placed in Darmstadt (Germany). The HESR is designed for antiprotons with a momentum range from 1.5 GeV/c to 15 GeV/c, but will as well be suitable to provide heavy ion beams with a momentum range from approximately 0.6 GeV/c to 5.8 GeV/c. To guarantee smooth operation it is crucial to verify and to optimize the design with beam-dynamics simulations. Within recent studies* calculations based on a variant of the Lyapunov exponent were carried out to estimate the dynamic aperture. The studies could reproduce expected influences as reduced aperture due to tune resonances and tune shifts due to coupling. Thus they can be extended to investigate the dynamic behaviour of the beam and identify the main restrictions to the dynamic aperture near the chosen betatron tune. Furthermore ongoing measurements of the magnetic fields of the already produced bending dipoles and quadrupoles deliver a more precise insight to the harmonic content of these elements. Thus the existing simulations could now be updated by including the new measurement results.
