  At higher particle energies the efficiency of RFQs decreases and DTL structures in combination with magnetic quadrupoles are used. One approach at IAP is the combination of RFQ and DTL. To compensate the defocusing effects of a DTL structure, the accelerating gaps of a spiral loaded cavity were equiped with small focusing fingers. These fingers arranged in a quadrupole symmetry provide an additional focusing field component. The beam dynamics of such a cavity has been studied with PARMTEQ. Simulations of the rf properties have been done using microwave studio. A prototype of a spiral loaded cavity with finger drift tubes has been built and low power measurement were made. Results of the calculations as well as low level and bead pertubation measurements are presented in this contribution.

  A small electrostatic storage ring is the central machine of the Frankfurt Ion stoRage Experiments which will be build up at the new Stern-Gerlach-Center of Frankfurt university. With ion energies up to 50 keV it will allow new methods to analyze complex many-particle systems from atoms to very large bio molecules. The high luminosity of the beam allows measurements with many orders of magnitude better resolution compared to traditional measurements. It will be combined with existing experiments, like the reaction microscope COLTRIMS and the ECR ion source. In comparison to earlier designs, the ring lattice was modified in many details: Problems in earlier designs were related with e.g. the detection of light particles and highly charged ions with different charge states. Therefore, the deflectors were redesigned completely, allowing a more flexible positioning of the diagnostics. In this contribution the final design of the storage ring is presented and the layout of all elements given. First results from vacuum measurements in the recently assembled quarter ring section are summarized.
