WASA-at-COSY: Forward Detector extension ^∗ — •A. Schwick — HISKP, Universität Bonn and Physikalisches Institut, Universität Tübingen

The WASA detector, which had been operated at the CELSIUS storage ring in Uppsala, Sweden, until June 2005, will be rebuild at the COSY accelerator at FZ Jülich.

Since the anticipated beam energies for WASA-at-COSY will be substantially higher than for CELSIUS-WASA, detector upgrades are necessary, in particular for the forward detector, which will have to deal with particles of much higher energies.

An overview will be given for the most important upgrades, which are currently under development and will be installed before in the second half of 2006 first commissioning runs of WASA-at-COSY will start. Additional forward detector upgrades that need to be implemented for stage two, i.e. high luminosity runs, will be discussed.
