The recent major discoveries in particle physics have motivated further the needs of new large scale accelerators, accompanied with outstanding scientific and technological challenges. After a brief summary on the status of the field, we will present in this talk the various scientific directions, which these discoveries open. We will then discuss the different types of particle accelerators...

The European Network for Novel Accelerators (EuroNNAc) is part of the European Accelerator R&D (EuCARD2) project and aims at providing a forum for discussion and coordination of advanced accelerator R&D in Europe. Presently it has 52 member institutes with a majority from Europe but also strong links to American and Asian research leaders. The talk will discuss the role that EuroNNAc can play...

ELI Nuclear Physics, one of the 4 pillars of ELI, will be built in Bucharest-Magurele, Romania. It is meant as an unique research facility to investigate the impact of very intense electromagnetic radiation (Extreme Light) on matter with specific focus on nuclear phenomena and their applications. The extreme light is realized at ELI-NP in two ways: by very high optical laser intensities and by...

The Extreme Light Infrastructure ELI will be the world's first international user facility for the scientific laser community. It is part of the ESFRI Roadmap for Pan-European Research Infrastructures of high priority, and it is presently being constructed as a de-centralized facility in the Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania. ELI will be instrumental for establishing and exploiting new...

The large existing astronomical telescopes - Very Large Telescope, Gemini, Subaru, Large Binary Telescope or Keck telescope - include primary mirrors of about 10 meters in diameter. More, they deliver images close to the diffraction limit thanks to new technologies such active and adaptive optics.
A new generation of telescopes, called Extremely Large Telescope or ELT, was proposed a few...
