Abstract
Well into its 10th year of running for physics, the Antiproton Decelerator (AD) supplies antiprotons to 4 different physics collaborations: ATRAP, ALPHA, ASACUSA and ACE. Antiprotons are injected at 3.5 GeV/c, then cooled and decelerated before being extracted at 100, 300 or 500 MeV/c in single or multi-batch mode. Here we will discuss the challenges of keeping reliability and performance at adequate levels, prospects of future physics scheduling and also possible additional experiments and machine improvements.
