Experiments with the FRS facility at GSI

Exotic nuclear beams produced via projectile fragmentation and fission at relativistic energies (400-1500 MeV/u) are separated in flight with the FRS. Experiments are performed in three separator branches: directly at the FRS, in combination with the storage-cooler ring ESR, and with the ALADIN-LAND reaction setup. The FRS has been successfully used as a powerful separator and also as a versatile high-resolution magnetic spectrometer. Novel technical developments are recently installed in the FRS motivated by the experimental program and by the increasing projectile intensity of the driver accelerators. In this contribution, we give an overview on the recent experimental program at the FRS with the emphasis on experiments with stored and cooled rare isotopes performed in the FRS Ring Branch.
