Obiettivo Relativistic heavy-ion collisions within the projectile energy range of several A GeV represents a unique tool to investigate the equation of state of nuclear matter in a hot and dense hadronic phase. Experiments along this line form a major part of the present research program at the heavy-ion synchrotron SIS and GSI in Darmstadt, Germany.In order to go beyond current approaches the participants in this programme will construct a large-acceptance dilepton spectrometer as a second generation experiment. Dilepton spectroscopy of heavy collision systems offers new and unique opportunities to study directly the properties of hadrons in dense nuclear matter in a model-independent way. The spectrometer aims, in particular, to investigate vector mesons over the full invariant mass range of up to about l GeV/c2 with sufficient resolution to separate r and w mesons. Unperturbed by hadronic final state interaction, the dilepton decay of the vector mesons allows the investigation of meson mass modifications. These are predicted by theoretical model calculations which incorporate a partial restoration of chiral symmetry at high pressure and temperature. From the technical point of view, this project is very challenging, pushing towards novel solutions in detector design and in many technical aspects. The design, construction and testing of individual sections of the spectrometer, as well as the technical developments, will be carried out at the different collaborating institutions before being implemented at GSI. The project is thus a typical example of intensifying technology transfer and using and promoting local expertise. Furthermore, it also offers excellent conditions for the academic training of graduate students and young scientists. During their work on the spectrometer project they will use state-of-the-art detector technology, analog and digital electronics, and computer technologies which, among other advanced techniques, are necessary for the success of the project.
