IPAC'23 - Conference guide

IPAC’23 / CONFERENCE GUIDE 18 Elettra-Sincrotrone Trieste S.C.p.A. is a multidisciplinary international laboratory of excellence, specialised in generating high quality synchrotron and free-electron laser light and applying it in materials and life science. The main assets of the centre are two advanced light sources, Elettra and FERMI, attracting academic and industrial researchers from more than 50 countries. Elettra is the Italian third generation light source serving the scientific community since 1993. It will be upgraded to Elettra 2.0, a new ultra-low emittance light source that will provide ultra-high brilliance and coherence and at the same time very short pulses for time resolved experiments. The project is in progress. FERMI is the seeded free electron laser facility, which, unique among the FEL sources currently operating in the ultraviolet and soft x-ray range worldwide, was developed to provide fully coherent ultrashort (10-100 fs) pulses with a peak brightness ten billion times higher than that available by third-generation light sources. Elettra has a long tradition of successful collaboration with international Laboratories and Organizations participating in the construction of large scale international projects all over the world.
