description

Abstract After a brief introduction the production of relativistic beams of exotic nuclei will be discussed and some characteristic examples from the ongoing GSI nuclear structure research programme are presented, such as: nuclear reactions with exotic beams to explore nuclear skins, the structure of halo nuclei, and direct mass measurements in a storage ring. Heavy-element research will be addressed briefly. A possible next generation exotic beam facility at GSI will be outlined.
