History Costs Time schedule The accelerators and physics High-energy antiprotons, PANDA Lots of info on: www.gsi.de Conceptual Design Report Material from “Second international workshop on the future accelerator facility for beams of ions and antiprotons”, October 2003 (H. Geissel, M. Steck, N. Angert, R. Hayano …) PANDA Letter of Intent
History Present GSI: UNILAC (linear accelerator) 1975 SIS18 (synchrotron 18 Tm) 1990 ESR (experimental storage ring) 1990 New elements Z=107 - 112 New radioactive isotopes Precise mass measurements of radioactive isotopes Radiation therapy with carbon ions Parallel operation
Highest Beam Intensities Brilliant Beam Quality Higher Beam Energies Highest Beam Power Parallel Operation
GSI Conceptual Design Report to the German Research Council: november 2001 XFEL and GSI were recommended: end of 2002 Minister Bulmahn announced her decision to support 4 projects: Magnet Lab at Dresden, stratospheric air plane, XFEL and GSI: februari 2003 Cost GSI: Building and infrastructure 225 MEUR Accelerator 265 MEUR Exp. stations and detectors 185 MEUR TOTAL 675 MEUR To be shared 65/10/25% between German Government, State of Hessen and partners from outside Germany.

Some physics topics: Confinement The mass of hadrons Glueballs Charmonium (cc-bar) spectroscopy Precision measurements of mass, width and decay branches. Precise due to beam energy resolution. Experimental studies: Search for predicted gluonic excitations in the charmonium mass range (3 - 5 GeV/c2). Meson properties in the nuclear medium Single and double hypernuclei Precision gamma-ray spectroscopy hyperon-nucleon, hyperon-hyperon interactions and more …
Requirements for a detector Detection of lepton pairs Good kaon identification Detection of low-energy photons Good vertex recognition must withstand large radiation doses (especially using nuclear targets)
