ELI Beamlines is the Czech Republic based pillar of the Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI), which benefits from the latest technical development in new generation laser technology to produce high intensity ultra-short laser pulses. ELI Beamlines aims at the development of ultra-short high brilliance X-rays sources and acceleration of particle beams.
After many years of preparatory work, ELI...
In the framework of the Neutrino Platform project at CERN, a new experimental area containing two experiments (ProtoDUNEs NP04 and NP02, prototypes of the DUNE detectors) has been built. Both experiments consist of an approximate cubic cryostat of 11 m side filled with liquid argon (LAr) in which a detector of about 6 m side is submerged. The NP04 detector operated with beam at the end of...
National legislation and facility-specific guidelines specify how to handle hazardous substances in commercial environments. Among other things, this includes appropriate storage and registers. The latter have to be maintained and revised at regular intervals. Scientific facilities with experimental processes, however, have a special framework that has to be considered. Dynamic experimental...
New technologies emerging from High-Energy Physics labs are quickly being deployed in large scales not only within the research infrastructures but also transferred to other commercial and industrial applications. Therefore, standardization of these innovative systems and equipment is essential to ensure an acceptable level of safety and quality, in which the cooperation between research and...
