The highly charged heavy ion trap (HITRAP) project at GSI is a funded mid term project and is planned to be operational end of 2007. Highly charged ions up to U92+ provided by the GSI accelerator facility will be decelerated from 4 MeV/u down to 6 keV/u and subsequently be injected into a large Penning trap for further deceleration and phase space cooling. The deceleration is done in a combination of the GSI experimental storage ring (ESR) and a linac based on an IH-structure and a RFQ. In front of the decelerator linac a double drift-buncher-system provides for phase focusing and a final de-buncher integrated in the RFQ-tank reduces the energy spread in order to improve the efficiency for beam capture in the cooler trap. The paper reports the beam dynamics design along the entire decelerator down to the trap injection point, as well as and the status of the cavities. Finally the time schedule and ESR and linac commissioning are discussed.

The radio frequency tuning of the multi-cell superconducting CH structure for beta equal to 0.1 is investigated for a 19-cell niobium cavity operated at liquid helium temperature. By applying external mechanical forces the deformation of the structure is studied and the resulting change in frequency is analysed. The ruling equations of elasticity and the electromagnetic eigenvalue problem are solved by using commercial finite element tools. The quantitative results form the basis of an optimized tuning device. In order to guarantee a long lifetime of the cavity, fracture criteria are defined to avoid mechanical damage. Wherever possible the results are compared with experimental data obtained from measurements performed on the first CH prototype developed at the Institute of Applied Physics at Frankfurt. In addition a fast piezo device will be integrated into the slowly acting mechanical tuner. The whole system will operate in an existing horizontal cryostat for testing purposes.

In the framework of the European network HIPPI (High Intensity Pulsed Proton Injectors) a linac code comparison and benchmarking program have been promoted. An intermediate goal is to compare different space charge solvers and lattice modelling implemented in each code in preparation of experimental validations from future measurements to be carried out at the UNILAC of GSI. In the last two years a series of different tests and comparisons among several codes (DYNAMION, HALODYN, IMPACT, LORASAR, PARMILA, PATRAN, PATH and TOUTATIS) have been undertaken. The quality of Poisson solvers has been evaluated and a number of code adjustments has been carried out to obtain the best agreement in terms of RMS moments. In this paper we report on the status of this program.
