LACUS Inauguration Symposium
© 2016 EPFL
Inauguration of the Lausanne Center for Utrafast Science, Friday June 3rd 2016 - Forum Rolex
The Lausanne Centre for Ultrafast Science (LACUS) brings together the EPFL teams working in Ultrafast Science and Technology with experimental and theoretical methods as well as those using ultrafast technology in different applications.
Research areas are very diverse, spanning from fundamental to applied research and they present a very high degree of complementarity.
Several EPFL groups are pioneers in ultrafast science and technology and LACUS pools in the expertise in the development and the use of advanced ultrafast laser technology, X-ray and electron technology and associated methods, along with the EPFL theory groups.
It also aims at complementing and strengthening existing Swiss scientific infrastructures, e.g. the Swiss Light Source and the SwissFEL.
