Abstract

We present new results on laser cooling of relativistic C3+ ion beams at the Experimental Storage Ring at GSI. For the first time we could show laser cooling of bunched relativistic ion beams using fast scanning of the frequency of the cooling laser over a range larger than the momentum acceptance of the bucket. Unlike previously employed cooling schemes where the bucket frequency was scanned relatively to a fixed laser frequency, scanning of the laser frequency can be readily applied to future high energy storage rings such as HESR or SIS 100 at FAIR.
