The HPERO summer school took place the 27th of June to 3rd of July in Piriac-sur-Mer, France. Despite the difficult situation with the corona restrictions the school hosted 51 persons (36 participants, 10 lecturers on site + 2 online from UOXF, 3 organizers) from 15 different nationalities. A full week [...]
© Štěpán Sechovský The Materials Growth and Measurement Laboratory (MGML) is a large research infrastructure operated by the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University, in cooperation with the Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences. The main research focus is condensed matter physics and materials sciences. More [...]
Although all EMFL sites have resumed user operation, the COVID-19 crisis is still causing serious restrictions. Quite a number of the accepted and scheduled proposals could not be performed, mainly due to travel restrictions. Nevertheless, the Board of Directors decided to stick to the regular policy that proposals will remain [...]
The Super EMFL project started on the 1st of January, whithin the European programme Horizon2020. For the next four years 11 partners will conduct a research on designing a new high temperature superconductor magnet. Follow other news and project advancements here on this website, on SuperEMFL pages! [...]
The primary objective of the EU funded design study SuperEMFL is to add an entirely new dimension to the EMFL through the development of all-superconducting user magnets at unprecedented field strengths of 40 T and beyond, granting the European high-field user community access to such high superconducting magnetic fields, more [...]
Since January 1, 2021, there have been some changes in the composition of the EMFL Board of Directors (BoD). Geert Rikken has stepped down as director of LNCMI and is succeeded by Charles Simon, who will join the EMFL BoD. Peter Christianen, director of HFML, fills the BoD chair position. [...]
EMFL is a member of the Analytical Research Infrastructures of Europe (ARIEs) consortium. The ARIEs are centers of scientific and technological excellence, delivering services, data, and expertise to a growing and diverse user community of more than 40,000 researchers in academia and industry, across a range of domains: the physical [...]
Photo © Zhe Wang Due to the Corona pandemic, this year´s EMFL award ceremony took place less festive as usual. This time, Dr. Zhe Wang, junior group leader at the University of Cologne, had the honor to receive the prize. Due to the unusual circumstances, Jochen Wosnitza, Director of [...]
Photo © Jake Ayres Experimental physicist Jake Ayres, a former PhD student at HFML, has been awarded a two-year fully funded EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellowship to determine whether the elusive origin of high-temperature superconductivity can come from a newly revealed incoherent variety of electrons. “Using the high fields at [...]
Analytical Research Infrastructures of Europe (ARIE) just released a joint position paper addressing potential viral and microbial threats. This way, the consortium enhances its cross-border, multidisciplinary collaboration to offer Europe a strong and valid weapon against the present COVID-19 challenge and other possible, similar future crises. The ARIEs are [...]
