Present and future mass measurements at the FRS-ESR Facility at GSI — •Ronja Knöbel — GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung GmbH, Planckstraße 1, 64291 Darmstadt, Germany

Schottky and Isochronous Mass Spectrometry were developed at the FRS-ESR facility at GSI and are essential methods for precise and accurate mass measurements. New developments of experimental tools and refinements in the analysis were achieved for both methods which led to the discovery of new isotopes and new isomers along with new mass and half-life measurements. Recent results from both methods will be presented and comparisons to theoretical predictions will be given. These results improve the understanding of nuclear structure and of the astrophysical nucleosynthesis-pathways.
