Abstract :
An RI beam factory project is proposed by the Institute of Physical and Chemical Research (RIKEN) as a next new facility for nuclear physics. The accelerator system for this project, consists of main 2 parts, one is superconducting ring cyclotron (SRC) and the other is a storage ring system named MUSES. An accumulator cooler ring (ACR) is a part of Multi-USe Experimental Storage rings (MUSES). It is used for the accumulation and cooling of the radioactive isotope (RI) beams which are produced by the beam from SRC and pass through a fragment separator. The large momentum spreads of these RI beams will be significantly reduced by the electron cooling and stochastic cooling devices in the ACR. Devices for multi-turn injection and RF stacking are also prepared in order to increase the beam current. The simulations and designs of these devices are presented in this report
