Abstract :
A proposed accelerator complex for the Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro is described. The main components are a heavy ion injection system and two rings, a fast synchrotron and an accumulator, both with a maximum rigidity in excess of 22 Tm connected by a transfer line where unstable isotopes are produced and selected. The system is designed for the acceleration of heavy ions with specific energy in the range of few GeV/u, the production of unstable isotopes, and their deceleration to specific energies around the Coulomb barrier. The unstable isotopes are produced by impinging the primary beam on a production target and collecting them in the accumulator where electron and stochastic cooling techniques are applied to reduce the large phase space volume generated in the production process and during accumulation.<>
