Abstract A dedicated high current uranium ion source and LEBT will be built at the GSI High Current Injector (HSI), to fulfil the intensity requirements for FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research at Darmstadt). This new injection line will be integrated into the existing complex which already comprises two branches. The new LEBT is designed as a straight injection line without dipole magnet, i.e. without dispersive charge state separation. All uranium charge states, coming from the ion source, are transported to the heavy ion high current GSI-HSI-RFQ. Only the design charge state U⁴⁺ is accelerated to the final RFQ energy. The new LEBT design is based on beam emittance and current measurements behind the existing ion source. Beam dynamics simulations have been performed with the codes TRACE-3D (envelopes), DYNAMION, BEAMPATH and TRACK (multiparticle). The recent layout of the LEBT, as well as the results of beam dynamics studies are presented.
