Measurements of the accelerator beam quality and lifetime at COSY with the PANDA Cluster-Jet Target — •Hanna Eick, Philipp Brand, Benjamin Hetz, Daniel Klostermann, Christian Mannweiler, Sophia Vestrick, and Alfons Khoukaz for the PANDA collaboration — Institut für Kernphysik, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, 48149 Münster, Germany

The internal, windowless PANDA Cluster-Jet Target developed at WWU Münster will be the Day-1 target of the antiproton storage ring facility HESR, which is currently under construction at the future GSI/FAIR facility. With a target thickness of more than 2 × 10¹⁵ atoms/cm² without temporal substructures and a distance from the target nozzle of more than 2 m to the interaction point, it is suitable for 4π experiments with a high luminosity. Of particular interest during the test beam time at COSY are the studies of the beam-target interaction. In August 2019, special attention was paid to the measurements of the accelerator beam quality and lifetime in conjunction with the PANDA target and the elements of the stochastic cooling of the HESR also installed at COSY. An overview of the PANDA Cluster-Jet Target and measurements performed at COSY in August 2019 will be presented in this talk.
