Abstract :
The cooler synchrotron COSY delivers unpolarized and polarized protons and deuterons in the momentum range 300 MeV/c up to 3.65 GeV/c. Electron cooling at injection level and stochastic cooling covering the range from 1.5 GeV/c up to maximum momentum are available to prepare high precision beams for internal as well as external experiments in hadron physics. The beam is fed to external experiments by a fast kicker extraction or by stochastic extraction. Results of extracted electron cooled beams and developments to increase the number of stored particles and to increase the degree of polarization during acceleration are reported
