2 Outline About the project Lasers Facilities Physical concepts of beamlines Experimental areas and end-stations Latest scientific results Operation and first call for users, through ERIC single entrance point

3 ELI will comprise 4 branches: Attosecond Laser Science, which will capitalize on new regimes of time resolution (ELI-ALPS, Szeged, HU) High-Energy Beam Facility, responsible for development and application of ultra-short pulses of high-energy particles and radiation stemming from relativistic and later ultrarelativistc interaction (ELI-Beamlines, Prague, CZ) New science, unique research opportunitites Nuclear Physics Facility with ultra-intense lasers and brilliant gamma beams (up to 19 MeV) enabling also brilliant neutron beam generation with a largely controlled variety of energies (ELI-NP, Magurele, RO) Ultra-High-Field Science centred on direct physics of the unprecedented laser field strength (ELI 4, to be decided)?

6 Top level goal of ELI Beamlines The top-level goal of implementation of the project, as endorsed in the ELI White Book, is to establish a High-Energy Beam Facility, responsible for development and use of ultra-short pulses of high-energy particles and radiation stemming from relativistic and ultra-relativistic interactions. The ELI-Beamlines is intended to address one of the Grand Challenges, specifically in generation of Ultra-short pulses of energetic particles (>10 GeV) and radiation (up to few MeV) beams produced from compact laser plasma accelerators, and is expected to support the Ultra-high field Science, i.e. access of the ultra-relativistic regime. Integration of ELI in the photon based science facilities worldwide as a user facility
