Abstract:
Atomic physics plays an important role at heavy-ion accelerator or
radioactive beam facilities such as GSI: The properties of
highly-charged ions and of their extremely large electromagnetic fields
can be investigated up to U92+; nuclear ground state properties can be
determined with high precision and in a model-independent way; finally,
atomic physics techniques can be used to improve the performance of
heavy-ion beams. The talk will give an overview on recent results and an
outlook to the opportunities for atomic physics opened up by the Future
GSI Heavy Ion and Antiproton Facility.
