  Future large-scale facilities for research are very much under discussion in Europe. This results, of course, on the one hand from the discussions in the science communities and their identification of new frontiers in research; but it also reflects to a certain degree the trend to pool resources among the countries towards what has been labeled the “European Research Area”. In the field of nuclear physics and/or its intersections with particle physics, several such efforts have been under consideration or are underway. This applies to the study of the subnuclear degrees of freedom of the strong interaction system(s) as well as to the extremes of the atomic nucleus as the many-body system of the strong force. In this talk an attempt is made to summarize the present status and future plans, with emphasis on the facility concepts and their demands on accelerator technology and development

  The AD Schottky and BTF system relies on rapid acquisition and analysis of beam quantisation noise during the AD cycle which is based on an embedded receiver and digital signal processing board hosted in a VME system. The software running in the VME sets up the embedded system and amplifiers, interfaces to the RF and control system, manages the execution speed and sequence constraints with respect to the various operating modes, schedules measurements during the AD cycle and performs post processing taking into account the beam conditions in an autonomous way. The operating modes of the instrument dynamically depend on a detailed configuration, the beam parameters during the AD cycle and optional user interaction. Various subsets of the processed data are available on line and in quasi real time for beam intensity, momentum spread and several spectrum types, which form an important part of AD operation today.
