1. Lab. Director’s Meeting IHEP, Protvino, Russia, 15-16 January 2008 D. Reistad, The Svedberg Laboratory, Uppsala University

2. Antiproton momentum, 1.5 –15 GeV/c Electron cooling up to 8.9 GeV/c (4.5 MeV electron energy) Stochastic cooling above 3.8 GeV/c High Energy Storage Ring HESR is presently being designed by a consortium consisting of FZ-Jülich, GSI and UU. Uppsala University has taken the responsibility for designing the high energy electron cooler. Target 4*10 15 H/cm2

7. We would like to invite partners, who want to realize this high-energy electron cooler together with us. All details are subject to negotiations.

8. Present situation in Sweden: Sweden has declared that it will contribute 10 M€. (We hope that this amount will be increased at least to 1 % of the full FAIR) Recent decisions: Stockholm University (MSL) gets 30 MSEK (3.2 M€) provided that CRYRING becomes LSR Funding agency (“Vetenskapsrådet”) is aware of cost of high- energy electron cooler. Uppsala University (TSL) gets prolongation of “salary guarantee” for staff until 31 May 2009. Also funds to realize and test prototype electron gun and collector.
