Abstract
Experiments on light meson production and pp-bremsstrahlung as planned for the initial stage at COSY are discussed. Special emphasis will be placed on near-threshold behaviour where due to kinematics all partic les are forced into a rather narrow cone around the beam axis. A speci ally designed charged particle detector system will be used which not only covers the complete forward hemisphere of 2pi in the laboratory s ystem but additionally shows maximum resolution in the extreme forward direction with only moderate cuts in the minimally required energy of all ejectiles.
