The Extreme Light Infrastructure Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) project is one of the
most prestigious research infrastructures in the world due to its unique state-of-the-art equipment. Implemented by
the National Institute of Physics and Nuclear Engineering Horia Hulubei (IFIN-HH),
ELI-NP has been designated by the Nuclear Physics Collaboration Committee of the European Science Foundation
(NuPECC) as a major facility in the
Nuclear Physics Long Range Plan.
The ELI-NP finalized successfully the commissioning of the High-Power Laser System (HPLS), the most powerful laser in the world.
The ELI-NP HPLS is now delivering the 2 x 10 PW @ 1 shot per minute, 2 x 1 PW @ 1 Hz and the 2 x 100 TW @ 10 Hz pulses and the first
commissioning experiments are under implementation. The success of the HPLS implementation is the result of an excellent collaboration between ELI-NP and Thales.

ELI-NP Research Departments
Strong local teams are developing state-of-the-art instrumentation for experiments in the emerging field of laser-driven
nuclear physics.
The two major systems are the Lasers System Department (LSD) and Gamma System Department (GSD), both with
specifications well beyond existing facilities.
The directions of research to be conducted at ELI-NP, mainly in the field of nuclear physics and its applications,
are grouped in three other Research Departments.
The five Research Departments emerged naturally, during debates within the scientific community, as a logical
division between Research & Development related to the experimental systems and the research pursued by employing them.
The Technical Division provides support for the implementation and maintenance of the big equipments and the experimental set-ups.
