Abstract

CERN is currently extending its accelerator complex and experimental facilities to perform experiments with antiprotons from almost zero up to 540 GeV centre of mass energies. The key part of the enterprise is a 3.5 GeV accumulating ring (AA) relying entirely on stochastic cooling. Antiprotons will be collided against protons at centre of mass energies up to 540 GeV in the SPS, and up to 62 GeV in the ISR. A small additional machine, LEAR, will make a wealth of experiments possible at kinetic energies ranging from 5 MeV to 1.3 GeV.
