● MED of several 100 keV will influence the proton capture appreciably

• End of rp path near 100Sn due to fast decay beyond the double shell closure @Z=N=50

• 100Sn shell structure decisive for ß+/EC decay (Gamow-Teller) and waiting points

Conclusion:

● Fragmentation + fission of relativistic beams + FRS + RISING

● Precision spectroscopy of exotic nuclei → tuning of effective NN

interaction

● Monopoles determine shell evolution

● Nuclear structure and astrophysics

Future :

● FAIR + Super-FRS + HISPEC/DESPEC → intensity, acceptance,

efficiency, selectivity
