16. Conclusion The interaction of cooled antiproton beams with nucleons and nuclei opens up a broad and challenging research program ranging from non-perturbative QCD – phenomena (glueballs, hybrids, confinement, chiral symmetry breaking) to CP-violation and tests of fundamental symmetries. High luminosity and monochromaticity at HESR will provide high precision data and sensitivity to rare processes. Electron-cooling in the HESR is a technological challenge. With the realisation of the HESR as integral part of the future accelerator facility, GSI will play a pioneering role in the experimental exploration of long-distance (non-perturbative) QCD and the structure of hadronic matter.
