Future RISING experiments at relativistic energies

Summary, in English

The proposed experiments for the first RISING (Rare ISotope INvestigations at GSI) campaign will exploit secondary unstable beams at relativistic energies in the range from 100 MeV/u to 400 MeV/u. The RISING spectrometer will be employed for relativistic Coulomb excitation and for high-resolution gamma-spectroscopy experiments after secondary nucleon removal reactions and secondary fragmentation. New experimental methods for spectroscopy at relativistic energics will be investigated in order to measure nuclear structure observables beside the directly accessible level energies and quadrupole deformations. The future experiments will focus on: Shell structure of unstable doubly magic nuclei and their vicinity, symmetries along the N = Z line and mixed symmetry states, shapes and shape coexistence, collective modes and E1 strength distribution.
