Abstract :
The RF and other manipulations required to extract antiprotons from the accumulator core for collider operation are described. ESME simulations of the motion in longitudinal phase space are shown. Measurements of the emittances of the extracted antiprotons are presented. The effect of the unstacking process on the core longitudinal and transverse emittances is examined and recent performance is also presented
