  • Description: The achievements of the Institut für Kernphysik (IKP) in 2016, the second year of the ongoing period of the"Programme oriented Funding" (PoF), have again been remarkable and clearly demonstrated the scientificvirtue of our research. IKP is an indispensable key player in various projects and a reliable partner inscientific collaborations.The EDM project accomplished a number of important steps towards a high precision storage ring basedEDM measurement. For this activity Prof. Ströher has been awarded an Advanced Grant by the EuropeanResearch Council (ERC) given to outstanding research activities which confirms the high scientific value.Marcel Rosenthal was awarded the JARA Excellent Junior Award for his project “Spin Tracking Studiestowards Electric Dipole Moment Measurements in Storage Rings” (JARA-FAME).The activities for the FAIR projects are in excellent condition on the accelerator side as well as on thedetector side. The HESR components preparations are on schedule and the development of PANDA detectorcomponents is making very sustainable progress. Many fully tested and assembled dipole and quadrupolemagnets have already been delivered to Darmstadt. These activities are crucial to the realization of bothHESR and PANDA.The neutrino physics activities are ramping up by joining the Borexino/SOX and JUNO experiments. Duringthis year three new PhD students started to work for Borexino/SOX and two for JUNO.The excellent scientific achievements of the COSY hadron physics program have been summarized thisyear in a review article. Some data are still being analyzed, and further important results will be completedshortly. COSY is now being mostly used as a test facility for FAIR and to perform preliminary studies fora storage ring EDM experiment (srEDM). Since the amount of beam time is oversubscribed, recommendationsto select the best measurements are made by the COSY Beamtime Advisory Committee (CBAC).The theory group is working on various topics in nuclear and hadronic physics via effective field ...
