**The new project was started for the upcoming FAIR facilities, and is based on the old CCC (GSI/FSU Jena - A. Peters e. a.).** Collaborations with the Friedrich-Schiller-University of Jena/Dept. for Solid-State Physics, and the Max-Planck-Institute in Heidelberg will enforce research, development and construction of CCCs for FAIR and CSR. | **The new project was started for the upcoming FAIR facilities, and is based on the old CCC (GSI/FSU Jena - A.
