Abstract The COSY facility hosts experiments for the JEDI (Jülich Electric Dipole moment Investigations) collabora-tion. Polarized deuteron beams with a momentum of 970 MeV/c are stored in the ring. To achieve polarization times in the order of several minutes, small emittances and momentum spread are crucial. Therefore, the beam is pre-cooled with the 100-kV electron cooler. To further improve the spin coherence time, cooling during the experiments would be desirable. That way, the beam blow-up due to intra beam scattering could be compen-sated. But since the focusing solenoids in the e-cooler may not be perfectly compensated, it cannot be used to cool during the experiments. The existing stochastic cooling (SC) system is not sensitive at low beam veloci-ties. Thus, it is proposed to build a dedicated SC system for low beta beams. This work presents the proposed sys-tem. It emphasizes the design process of pick-up and kicker hardware. Starting from the slot-ring structures that have been developed for HESR, an optimization towards a high sensitivity at a beta of 0.46 is undertaken.
