Pan-European super laser project representatives meet in Brussels
Brussels (MTI) – Hungarian, Czech and Romanian representatives of a pan-European super laser project on Friday met at Hungary’s EU representative office in Brussels to discuss R+D plans, budgets and results pertaining to the project.
Hungary, the Czech Republic and Romania won a joint bid in October 2009 to run the EU Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) project. The University of Szeged is hosting the project in Hungary.
The ELI pillar in Szeged will take snap-shots on the attosecond scale (a billionth of a billionth of a second) of the electron dynamics in atoms, molecules, plasmas and solids. It will carry out examinations in life sciences and research into matter and will be suitable for developing new materials.
ELI-HU managing director Lorant Lehrner said representatives of all three countries at the meeting said the construction of their respective super laser centres was proceeding according to schedule and would be completed by 2018.
Lehrner said the research centres will be unlike any other in the world meaning they will likely be visited by researchers from across the globe.
