Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research FAIR (Darmstadt): coordinates in the landscape
Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) is realized as an extension of the existing nuclear research center GSI Darmstadt. FAIR is organized as a company (GmbH) with Poland (Jagiellonian University) as one of shareholders. The civil construction is now progressing. Full operation is planned for 2025. SIS-100 synchrotron (100 Tm) will be the workhorse of the facility. Research areas are: hot and dense nuclear matter, charmonium spectroscopy, neutron-rich radioactive nuclei and strong e-m fields. The beam intensity will be 3 to 4 orders of magnitude above actually available elsewhere, so study of rare processes might be feasible.
