SIS 100 / SIS 18

The existing heavy ion synchrotron SIS18 at GSI will be used as a booster synchrotron for SIS100 at FAIR operation. In order to reach the intensity goals, low charge state heavy ions will be used. [...]

The FAIR complex at the GSI Helmholtzzentrum will generate heavy ion beams of ultimate intensities. To achieve this goal, low charge states have to be used. [...]

An improved moveable in vacuo XUV fluorescence detection system was employed for the laser cooling of bunched relativistic (𝛽 = 0.47) carbon ions at the Experimental Storage Ring (ESR) of GSI Helmholtzzentrum Darmstadt, Germany. Strongly Doppler boosted XUV fluorescence (∼90 nm) was emitted from the ions in a forward light cone after laser excitation of the 2s–2p transition (∼155 nm) by a new tunable pulsed UV laser system (257 nm). [...]

The synchrotron SIS100 at FAIR, currently under construction in Darmstadt, Germany, will deliver slow extracted proton and ion beams up to 100 Tm employing resonant extraction. Its compact super-ferric dipole and quadrupole magnets allow fast ramping of magnetic field up to 4 T/s and 57 (T/m)/s, respectively. [...]

The heavy ion synchrotron SIS100 is the flagship accelerator of the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) currently under construction at GSI, Darmstadt. It will provide high intensity beams of particles ranging from protons to uranium ions at beam rigidities up to 100 Tm. [...]
