16. Radiation Safety Approval
In February 2002, one year before the “green light” was obtained from the German government, GSI applied for the Construction of an
International Facility for the Research with Ion and Proton Beams at
the Hessian Ministry for Environment
In December 2003, GSI received official letter with the first approval:
....the planned facility will fulfill the requirements in accordance with
the German radiation protection laws for the construction
of the whole installation and the operation as outlined
in the Conceptual Design Report.
This permit was confirmed in Fall 2004 also for open pit construction

17. 3-Phase Project Staging

18. Stage 1

19. Stage 2

20. Stage 3

21. General Strategy:
Groundwork, supply systems and major buildings as early as financially possible
(potential for smoothing of financial profile?)
Scientific facilities staged according to three science programmes
Contributions from outside mainly in-kind for scientific facilities (?)

22. Three stages according to fields of science:
Radioactive beam physics
Nuclear structure and nuclear astrophysics
Atomic physics studies with highly charged/radioactive ions
Proton-antiproton physics
QCD studies with protons and antiprotons
Precision studies with antiproton beams addressing fundamental symmetries and interactions
Full facility research
Full parallel operation of up to four experiments
Full energy and luminosity for nuclear collisions program at CBM
Precision QCD Studies at PANDA up to 15 GeV/c
Plasma research (full gain factor in power density: ~400)
Atomic reaction studies with fast beams

23. FAIR construction cost
total cost: 989 Mio€
