Introduction to Single Cycle High Energy Physics and Applications
- Sydney GALES
Extreme Light Infrastructure – Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP), the new Research Center under construction in Bucharest-Magurele, will use extreme electromagnetic fields, produced by a high power laser system (2x10PW) and by a very brilliant gamma beam (up to 20 MeV), for nuclear physics research. The status of the Project implementation, which started in 2013, will be presented. The new Center,...
As the three ELI pillars in Romania, Czech Republic and Hungary and other large scale facilities like the Apollon system are becoming a reality, unfathomable possibilities not envisaged in the original proposal are coming up. They stem from the combination of peak power, flattop and low beam divergence. The most intriguing one is the capacity to compress petawatt pulses to the single cycle...
