The ELI-Nuclear Physics Project

Extreme Light Infrastructure – Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) European Research Centre

Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) is one of the 48 infrastructures of the European Strategic Forum for Research Infrastructure (ESFRI) roadmap and represents a major step forward in quest for producing extreme electromagnetic fields. Extreme Light Infrastructure – Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) is one of the three pillars of the ELI initiative, which aims to use extreme electromagnetic fields for nu...

the first importance. Behnke has demonstrated that the "lean body mass," since it represents the active tissue of a person, is superior to reference standards hitherto proposed for the estimation of physiological functions such as the masses of various organs and tissues and the volumes of the different fluid compartments in the body. In the present article, which has been reprinted as a short ...

Physics of the Awake Project

We briefly describe the physics goals of the AWAKE experiment proposed at CERN. AWAKE is a plasma wakefield acceleration (PWFA) experiment using the SPS proton bunch as a PWFA driver. These goals include the study of the self-modulation instability of the proton bunch propagating along the plasma, the sampling of the accelerating wakefields by witness electrons, the acceleration of an electron ...

About Eli

Only a few people leave a lasting imprint on one's life: parents and siblings, one's immediate family, maybe a grandparent , a special teacher, and a few friends. A very few people , possessed of magnetic charm, courage, vision, or force of personality, imprint the lives of many others. And a very, very special few touch us deeply as human beings, as people we love. Such is Eli Glatstein, the m...
