Since 2018 the Day of Light has been celebrated across all continents as well as in the Czech Republic. At this occasion, ELI Beamlines and HiLASE laser centres hosted a special Open Doors Day. The unique atmosphere of the event was enhanced by special illumination and light projections after the sunset.
The Talent Academy for the third time offered an opportunity for secondary schools students to try what it is like to work as researchers at professional laboratories.
Authors extended the application of the method further to the fields where the knowledge of the so-called absolute configuration of molecules is indispensable, such as pharmaceutical research or molecular biology. The new method will be used in laboratories and the development of drugs will become faster, simpler and more effective.
One of the many aims is to keep abreast of the scientific literature, which has expanded greatly over recent years. The journal club has, therefore, become an integral part of continuous biomedical and biophysical education.
The involvement of women in science in general makes up less than 30% of researchers across scientific fields worldwide. The international Day supposes to empower women and girls in their involvement in scientific research.
CTA will be the next generation ground-based instrument in the detection of gamma rays, which are very high-energy electromagnetic radiation emitted by the hottest and most powerful objects in the Universe – such as supermassive black holes, supernovae and possibly remnants of the Big Bang
This may open new doors for developing novel optical sensors, photoluminescent materials, catalysts, and pharmaceuticals.
Superelastic and shape memory functional properties of NiTi shape memory alloys are already utilized in medical devices, automotive and space industries, robotics and civil engineering applications.
The diamond is not only the hardest material but it has unique optical properties making it an ideal material for industrial purposes, such as lasers, quantum technologies or applications for biological detection.
