Abstract: 

The future international facility FAIR (Facility for Antiprotons and Ion Research) will deliver beams of all ions up to uranium with intensities of up to 10(12) ions/s. At FAIR it will be possible to perform experiments in different fields of physics. A wide range of ions with energies LIP to 1.5 A GeV will be used for the production of fragments by projectile fragmentation/fission at the in-flight fragment separator, Super-FRS. Rare isotopes of all elements Lip to Uranium will be produced and spatially separated within a few hundred nanoseconds, enabling the study of very short-lived nuclei.

The Super-FRS is a large-acceptance device utilizing large-aperture superconducting magnets and employing multiple degrader stages to provide monoisotopic nuclear beams. It serves different experimental branches including a new storage-cooler ring system. Because of high primary beam intensity a challenging design of the target area and the components used in the first dipole stage of the Super-FRS is necessary. These efforts include high-power production targets, beam dumps to catch the remaining primary beam and radiation resistant magnets. In this contribution we present the status of the project.
