It is extremely important to identify as many missing states above the open charm threshold as possible and to confirm the ones for which we only have a weak evidence

This will require high-statisticssmall-step scans of the

entire energy region accessible at HESR @ GSI

Press Release 16/2003, http://www.bmbf.de

05.02.2003

Bulmahn gives green light for large-scale research equipment "We are securing an international top position for German basic research"

...Basic research in the natural sciences has a long tradition in Germany. Its success is inextricably linked with the use of large-scale equipment at national and international research centres. "With the new concept, basic research in Germany will start from an excellent position when entering a new decade of successful work", Minister Bulmahn said.

Together with European partners, the Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung (GSI) in Darmstadt is to develop further its equipment in a phased approach and become a leading european physics centre. At least 25% of the costs amounting to €675 million are to be shouldered by foreign partners.
