The Super-FRS Multiplet, a CERN, GSI and FAIR collaboration

The GSI first of series Long Multiplet arrives at CERN to be tested in building 180. It contains 9 different magnets for about 70 tons weight, and its dimensions are 7 m length, 3 m width and 3.75 height. It is the second superconducting Multiplet out of 32 that will be delivered to CERN and later to GSI in Darmastadt. The Super-FRS Multiplet represents the most important component in Super-FRS separator, the most powerful in-flight separator for exotic nuclei up to relativistic energies. The Super-FRS is a two-stage in-flight separator to be built next to the site of GSI, Darmstadt, Germany, as part of FAIR (Facility for Anti-proton and Ion Research). Its purpose is to create and separate rare isotope beams and to enable the mass measurement also for very short lived nuclei.
