✦ Synopsis

For the new Munich high-flux reactor FRM-II a fission fragment accelerator is under design. The accelerator will deliver intense mass-separated beams of very neutron-rich fission fragments with energies at and beyond the Coulomb barrier.

One main physics goal will be the investigation of very heavy neutron-rich nuclei produced in fusion reactions.
