HITRAP
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
HITRAP is a research and technology development (RTD) network of European research teams. It was founded on November 1, 2001. The goal of the network is the development of novel instrumentation for a broad spectrum of physics experiments with heavy Highly Charged Ions (HCI) up to bare uranium (U92+) at low energies (<1 eV/u). This is presently not performed at any other institution using light, medium-heavy or heavy HCI at MeV energies. In the planned GSI future facility , HITRAP is an essential part of the SPARC and FLAIR collaborations.
The HITRAP RTD network is closely related to the European RTD networks NIPNET and IONCATCHER.
