Abstract:  Abstract: With the approaching commissioning of high intensity heavy ion accelerators like FRIB ,the need for long lasting charge stripping media becomes more pressing. Besides the normal thermal issues that appear in traditional carbon foil strippers, radiation damage forces us to think about self-replenishing media (gases and liquids). We will discuss the present efforts to develop a heavy ion charge stripper at MSU and other places.
