DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Bernhard Ketzer (Uni Bonn)\n\nAMBER (NA66) is a fixe
 d-target facility at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron designed to investi
 gate fundamental open questions in hadron physics. It features a versatile
 \, high-performance spectrometer setup combined with a unique variety of h
 igh-intensity beams\, ranging from muons to protons\, pions\, and kaons. T
 he approved first phase of the experiment includes the measurement of the 
 antiproton production cross-section in pp\, pd\, and p-He collisions\, whi
 ch is an essential input for indirect dark matter searches. It also includ
 es the precise measurement of the proton charge radius using high-energy m
 uons\, investigations of meson structure and the emergence of hadron mass 
 via Drell-Yan reactions and charmonium production using a pion beam.\nIn t
 his talk\, I will outline the physics motivations and methodologies behind
  the various AMBER measurements and their anticipated scientific impact. I
  will present the first results from the antiproton-production measurement
 s\, as well as the current status of preparations for future measurements\
 , particularly the proton radius measurement. I will also discuss plans fo
 r the second phase of AMBER\, which will focus on measurements with a high
 -intensity kaon beam after 2030.\n \n \n\nhttps://indico.gsi.de/event/24
