Abstract

The ESR storage ring offers the unique opportunity to store and cool fully stripped heavy ions up to Uranium at energies between 50 and 370 MeV/u. Measurements of the longitudinal cooling force for several ion species from C 6+ to U 92+ are presented. A pronounced deviation from the expected q 2 scaling was found. Further investigations have been performed to study the influence of magnetic field strength on the longitudinal cooling force.
