ResumoThe future accelerator facilities of GSI, a heavy ion synchrotron (SIS) and a storage cooler ring (ESR) are described. With the combination of these rings heavy ion and radioactive beams will be produced with energies up to 1–2 GeV/u at the highest possible phase space densities. First beams are expected in 1989. A number of proposed experiments and experimental facilities are described. Various medium energy nucleus-nucleus collision experiments are planned to study nuclei at high excitation energy. Radioactive beams are produced using projectile fragmentation, followed by isotope separation. They can be accumulated and cooled in ESR and made available for various nuclear structure experiments.
