COSY with its polarized beams, including new hardware (like a low-beta section and a Siberian snake), and the available target and detector systems is very close to function not only as a test-bench for the ongoing EDM related investigations on polarimetry, spin coherence time, etc., but it could be also utilized as is for precursor experiments, providing a directly measured solid number...

The international collaboration PAX (Polarized Antiproton eXperiments) pursues the goal to establish "spin-filtering" (SF) as a method to produce an intense stored beam of polarized antiprotons to be used subsequently in internal experiments. SF repeatedly exploits the spin-dependent interaction of a stored beam with a polarized hydrogen target, thereby slowly building up polarization in the...

Stored in heavy-ion storage rings, secondary beams enable a wide range of nuclear physics experiments. Such experiments profit, e.g., from high resolving power and excellent quality of cooled beams, from high revolution frequencies, which allows to "recycle" exotic nuclei, from ultra-high vacuum conditions, which allows to preserve high atomic charge states, from low background conditions,...

In order to fully exploit the physics potential of future high energy collider, a Vertex Detector providing high resolution track reconstruction is required. The Vertex Detector should be based on a technology capable of withstanding high track density and in case a large radiation exposure. In particular, near the interaction point the current silicon strip detector are not suitable for the...

The use of internal targets is a powerful method to investigate fundamental atomic and nuclear processes in a storage ring. We will present here the recent advances in the development of high density internal targets from a microscopic liquid droplet beam, by focusing on their characterization by using highly charged ions (HCI) in a storage ring. In particular, we will show that a liquid...

PANDA is a next generation hadron physics detector planned to be operated at the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) at Darmstadt, Germany. It will use intensive cooled antiproton beams with a momentum between 1.5 GeV/c and 15 GeV/c interacting with various internal targets. The PANDA detector is a state-of-the-art internal target detector at the HESR at FAIR allowing the...

The recently founded Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research FAIR at Darmstadt [1] will provide antiproton beams of intensities that are two orders of magnitude higher than currently available. Within the original plan of the full facility, antiprotons can be decelerated to 30...

The requirements for the internal target of the PANDA experiment at the future antiproton storage ring HESR/FAIR are manifold and change according to the different physics investigated in the proposed experiments. The most severe limitation comes from the requirement of being a very thin (dilute) and localized clump of matter within the ultra-high vacuum of the storage ring. In case of a...
