At the MPI für Kernphysik the new cryogenic electrostatic heavy ion storage ring CSR is currently under construction. By applying liquid helium cooling, it will reach a residual gas pressure in the 10−14 mbar region, which will enable the storage of even highly charged atomic ions over extraordinarily long times. In addition the ring can be operated at any temperature between 10 K and room temperature. As an electrostatic device, it will allow storage of ions of masses up to and above 100 a.m.u. In two of its straight sections, an electron cooling device for beam cooling and low-energy electron collision experiments, and a reaction microscope with a gas jet for kinematically complete high energy investigations are foreseen. The ring will hence be a unique tool for future atomic, molecular and cluster physics experiments under very low densities of residual gas and blackbody radiation, and thus enable a new class of experiments especially in laboratory astrophysics.
In this presentation, we will give an introduction to the ring design and present the current status of its construction.
