Experiments in the project named Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) is aimed at building the most powerful laser in the world near the Romanian capital, Bucharest.

As quoted from Softpedia VIVAnews, October 13, 2009, the facility will allow scientists to conduct eksperiman wide range on the intensity of light that had not been achieved before.

Later, the facility also will be dedicated to investigate the interaction of laser in the region of ultra-relatively unexplored. It is also used to build the sources of radiation and particles of ultra short, intense, and unprecedented for applied and fundamental science.

As for the laser facility will be ‘given’ in Romania, Hungary, and Czech Republic. Cost is estimated to reach approximately 500 million euros (approximately U.S. $ 728.5 million). Based on initial plans, scientific research will be done is about nuclear physics, astrophysics, cosmology, and high energy physics.
