District administrator of Darmstadt-Wixhausen, Deniz Würsch, visits GSI/FAIR
22.07.2024 |
Deniz Würsch, the new district administrator of Darmstadt’s district of Wixhausen, used a visit to GSI/FAIR to inform herself about the ongoing scientific research and the progress of the FAIR accelerator and to discuss the possibilities of cooperation between district administration and GSI/FAIR regarding relevant topics with the management.
Deniz Würsch was welcomed by the management of GSI and FAIR: Research Director Dr. Yvonne Leifels, Jörg Blaurock, Technical Managing Director, and Dr. Katharina Stummeyer, Administrative Managing Director, as well as press officer Dr. Ingo Peter. An introductory presentation on the research objectives, campus development and the FAIR construction project was followed by a tour of the test stand for superconducting magnets for the FAIR ring accelerator SIS100 and the FAIR construction site.
On the construction site, she visited the individual construction phases up close. The program included the first installations in the SIS100 underground accelerator tunnel, the Super Fragment Separator (Super-FRS) the central beamline and transfer building, and the buildings for the FAIR experiment stations.
The activities of GSI/FAIR are of great interest to the district administration. A second informative visit with other representatives of the district administration is planned for later this year. (CP)
