1^st National Free Electron Laser Symposium

FEL NS - 08

Bucharest, Romania, September 27^th, 2008

Organized by the

National Institute for Laser, Plasma and Radiation Physics (NILPRP)

in cooperation with the

Nuclear Training Centre – Horia Hulubei National Institute of Physics and Nuclear Engineering (HH NIPNE)

Symposium Chairman: Dr. R. Medianu,

Chairman of the Scientific Programme Committee: Prof. Dr. F. Scarlat

Scientific Programme Committee:

Argument

The Symposium is targeted to scientists having an interest in synchrotron or FEL radiation research, who want to share their experience and point out their future scientific directions. The main goals are to obtain a unified vision of the Romanian scientific research in the near future and set the basis of a national FEL laboratory. Conclusions following the Symposium shall be used when submitting the proposal for funding to the Romanian Research Authority.
