The Frascati National Laboratories (LNF), founded in 1955, are the oldest and biggest laboratory of INFN, the Italian agency devoted to fundamental research in nuclear and subnuclear physics and astrophysics. Presently LNF hosts DAΦNE, a high luminosity e+e- collider at 1 GeV c.m. energy (-factory). DAΦNE is a double ring collider of electrons and positrons with 510 MeV energy per beam.
The FTD-ELSA represents a unique combination of infrastructures for hadron physics research and detector development, and includes:
GSI operates an accelerator complex, which consists of the linear accelerator UNILAC, the heavy-ion synchrotron SIS18, and the experimental storage-cooler ring ESR. Ions ranging from hydrogen to uraniumcan be accelerated up to momenta given by the maximum rigidity, 18 Tm, of the SIS.
