Speaker

Dr Victor Zamfir (ELI-NP, Bucharest-Magurele, Romania)

Description

Extreme Light Infrastructure - Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) will be a unique research facility to investigate the impact of very intense electromagnetic radiation on matter with specific focus on nuclear phenomena and their applications. The experiments will be based on a 2x10PW Laser Beam and on a very high brilliance Gamma Beam produced by Compton backscattering of light photons on electrons accelerated by a LINAC. The description of the future ELI-NP facility operational in 2018 and of the planned experiments will be presented.
