“…Theoretical work has shown that an intense heavy ion beam can be efficiently employed to isentropically implode a sample material like hydrogen or water that will generate physical conditions which are expected to exist in the interiors of the giant planets in our solar systems as well as in exoplanets [9][10][11][12]. An experiment based on this scheme, named LAPLAS (Laboratory Planetary Sciences) has been proposed to study planetary physics at FAIR [9].…”

Abstract. The Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research in Europe (FAIR) will provide worldwide unique accelerator and experimental facilities allowing for a large variety of unprecedented frontier research in extreme state of matter physics and applied science. Indeed, it is the largest basic research project on the roadmap of the European Strategy Forum of Research Infrastructures (ESFRI), and it is cornerstone of the European Research Area. FAIR offers to scientists from the whole world an abundance of outstanding research opportunities, broader in scope than any other contemporary large-scale facility worldwide. More than 2500 scientists are involved in setting up and exploiting the FAIR facility. They will push the frontiers of our knowledge in plasma, nuclear, atomic, hadron and applied physics far ahead, with important implications also for other fields in science such as cosmology, astro and particle physics, and technology. It includes 14 initial experiments, which form the four scientific pillars of FAIR. The main thrust of intense heavy ion and laser beam-matter interaction research focuses on the structure and evolution of extreme state of matter on both a microscopic and on a cosmic scale.

“…Theoretical work on beam-target heating clearly demonstrated a special characteristic of ion beams, namely, "volume heating of matter" [12]- [28]. The ion beam deposits energy over an extended volume of the target, thereby generating exotic states of high pressure and high entropy in the sample, directly.…”

“…This type of experiment is suitable for studying the problem of hydrogen metallization [17], [22][23][24][25], [28], [30][31][32], [35,36], [59][60][61][62][63], [64] or for creating physical conditions that are expected to exist in the interiors of the giant planets [65,66]. For this reason, this experiment is named LAPLAS (LAboratory PLAnetary Science).…”

“…This scheme generates a low-entropy compression that leads to a very high material density with a relatively low temperature. Simulations have shown that using the parameters of the SIS100 beam at the FAIR, one would achieve a hydrogen density of 1 -3 g/cm 3 , a pressure of 3 -30 Mbar and a temperature of a few thousand K. This scheme is therefore more suited to study the problem of hydrogen metallization [17], [22][23][24][25], [28], [30][31][32], [35,36], [59][60][61][62][63].…”

“…This scheme is suited for studying the planetary interiors. Numerical simulations have shown that using the FAIR high intensity beam, one can compress hydrogen to a density of 1.2 g/cm 3 while a pressure of the order of 10 Mbar can be achieved [15,28,54].…”

The forthcoming Facility for Antiprotons and Ion Research (FAIR) at Darmstadt, is going to be a unique accelerator facility that will deliver high quality, strongly bunched, well focused, intense beams of heavy ions that will lead to unprecedented specific power deposition in solid matter. This will generate macroscopic samples of High Energy Density (HED) matter with fairly uniform physical conditions. These samples can be used to study the thermophysical and transport properties of HED matter. Extensive theoretical work has been carried out over the past decade to design numerous dedicated experiments to study HED physics at the FAIR, which has provided the basis for the HEDgeHOB (High Energy Density Matter Generated by Heavy Ion Beams) scientific proposal. This work is still in progress as the feasibility studies for more experimental schemes are being carried out.Another, very important research area that will benefit tremendously from the FAIR facility, is the production of radioactive beams. A superconducting fragment separator, Super-FRS is being designed for the production and separation of rare radioactive isotopes. Unlike the HED targets, the Super-FRS production target should not be destroyed or damaged by the beam, but should remain intact during the long experimental campaign. However, the high level of specific power deposited in the production target by the high intensity ion beam at FAIR, could cause serious problems to the target survival. These HED issues related to the Super-FRS production target are also discussed in the present paper.
