Popis: The existing accelerator facility at the Max-Planck-Institute in Heidelberg consists of a 12 MV tandem Van de Graaff accelerator, a post-accelerator and a heavy ion cooler storage ring TSR. Many experiments at the TSR, especially laser cooling, are limited by the low current delivered by the MP tandem. A new injector consisting of a high current source, two RFQs and eight seven-gap resonators will increase the currents for singly charged ions by up to three orders of magnitude. In a second phase, an ECR source for highly charged ions will be added and the high current injector will be used in combination with the Heidelberg heavy ion post-accelerator. This new system will deliver beams up to uranium with energies above the Coulomb barrier of the heaviest elements. In this paper the design and the status of the project are presented.
