The ELENA ring decelerates anti-protons to 100 keV down from 5.3 MeV with transport to experiments handled by electrostatic transfer lines. Even at 100 keV antiprotons are still too high in energy for direct injection into an ion trap, and this is why degrader foils are used to further lower the energy. This contribution presents full end-to-end simulations from the point of extraction until passing through the foil using realistic beam transport simulations coupled with accurate simulations of degrader foils via the use of density functional theory and molecular dynamics. Particles are tracked from the point of extraction until their injection into the trap with full physical modeling at all time steps. The results of this study provide a versatile platform for the optimization of low energy ion experiments towards specific targets.
