The Competitiveness Council in Brussels on Dec 8, 2009, made of the research ministers from the 27 EU member states, took note of the Joint Statement by the Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania, referring to these countries’ proposal to be set up a Pan-European ELI research infrastructure.
The ELI Project is one of the most important and newest on the European map of the big research infrastructure, and the Romanian researchers are to have this Pan-European infrastructure built in the scientific campus on the Magurele-Bucharest platform. The project consists in obtaining laser fascicles with intensities one thousand times higher than the highest values available today.
The project makes possible the exploration of areas inaccessible so far, such as the laser interaction with matter at energies where the relativity laws might be not relevant, time investigations of the electrons dynamics in atoms, molecules, plasmas and solids, and even the creation of particle-anti-particle pairs in vacuum. Likewise, it will be possible applications with a big scientific, economic and social impact.
‘The Education, Research, Youth and Sports Minister expresses his endorsement for the Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) project and he thinks that Romania will successfully accomplish its demarches the SC ELI empowered it to achieve in the ELI integrated infrastructure. At the same time, Minister Funeriu is confident that the ELI project will attract ever more youth to choose scientific careers in an Europe whose priority is to achieve a society based on knowledge,’ the release reads.
