High Energy Density (HED) Physics spans over wide areas of basic and applied physics. Strongly bunched high quality intense particle beams are an excellent tool to generate HED matter in the laboratory. Over the past decade, we have carried out extensive theoretical work to design HED physics experiments for the future FAIR facility at Darmstadt. These experiments will be carried out to study the equation-of-state properties of HED matter*, interiors of the Giant planets**, growth of hydrodynamic instabilities in solids and ideal fluids in the linear and the non-linear regimes*** as well as the solid constitutive properties of materials of interest under dynamic conditions.
