T1 - New facilities for hadron physics in Europe
AU - Paul, Stephan
PY - 2000/5/8

N2 - We review the physics which can be adressed at future hadron facilities in Europe. Leaving aside low energy electron machines we discuss the case of the COMPASS experiment, currently under construction at the CERN SPS and the project of an antiproton facility, currently discussed in the framework of future plans for the GSI. With the ending of the CERN LEAR programme, the concentration of CERN resources to the LHC and the disappearance of European hadron facility projects, these two projects carry the heritage of Europes long lasting engagement in hadron physics with high energy beams into the next millenium.
