The experiments comprised the investigation of an emittance dominated and a space-charge dominated beam transport. In particular, the high-current measurements represent a necessary step towards evaluating the focusing performance of the lens and to gain experience in a real accelerator environment. Besides the evaluation of the technical feasibility, the behavior of the electron cloud was characterized by the parameter analysis of the confined non-neutral plasma during beam transport measurements as well as subsequently performed diagnostic experiments. This contribution will present experimental results as well as numerical studies on an improved Gabor lens design for the possible application at the GSI High Current Injector (HSI) in the context of an upgrade program for FAIR**.
