Due to the nature of the stripping process, the resulting ion beam contains ions of different charge states. Therefore, high beam loss is typically associated, making the net stripping efficiency one of the decisive elements of the overall performance of an accelerator or facility. Several technical implementations of strippers have been and are still being developed in order to obtain optimal stripping for different ions and beam energies by employing different kinds of stripping targets, namely gaseous, solid and more recently fluid materials. High beam intensities resulting in prohibitive energy deposition and target destruction are challenging. Optimizing a stripper may potentially increase the overall performance by a large factor with less effort than other actions. This gave rise to the pulsed gas stripper project at the GSI UNILAC. This talk will give an overview of different strippers at GSI and beyond. The second part will give a detailed report on the introduction of hydrogen at the GSI gas stripper.
