The High-Energy Storage Ring (HESR) is part of the upcoming Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR). The HESR will provide antiprotons in the momentum range from 1.5 to 15 GeV/c for the internal target experiment PANDA. The demanding requirements of PANDA in terms of beam quality and luminosity together with a limited production rate of antiprotons call for a long beam life time and a minimum of beam loss. Thus, a sufficiently large dynamic aperture of the HESR is crucial. To provide this, a chromaticity correction scheme for the HESR has been developed to reduce tune spread and thus to minimize the emittance growth caused by betatron resonances. The chromaticity correction scheme has been optimized through dynamic aperture calculations. The estimated field errors of the HESR dipole and quadrupole magnets have been included in the non-linear beam dynamics studies. The ion optical settings of the HESR have been improved using dynamic aperture calculations and frequency map analysis technique. In this presentation comprehensive beam simulations are presented and predictions of long-term stability based on short-term particle tracking and orbit diffusion discussed.
