Description
The aim of this talk is to explaine role of main stakeholders preparing policy of Ministy of Education, Ressearch, Development and Youth of the Slovak Republic during the process of establishing SK Infrastructure Roadmap. One of the planned measures is establishing of the National Contact Point for XFEL and other European Research Infrastructures (hereinafter referred to as the NCP XFEL) at Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice.
NCP XFEL has the ambition to help the Slovak scientific community to successfully bid for proposals on the following infrastructures: European XFEL (X-ray Free Electron Laser) GmbH in Hamburg, ILL (Institute Laue Laugevin) in Grenoble, LHC (Large Hadron Collider) in Cerne, ELI Beamlines (Extreme Light Infrastructure) in Czech Republic, EST (EU Solar Telescope) in the Canary Islands, synchrotron radiation sources (without contractual relationship with SK) such as DESY Hamburg, ESRF Grenoble, Solaris Krakow, Diamond Light Source in UK, Alba Synchrotron Barcelona, Spring 8 in Japan, Argonne National Lab. in the USA.
The second aim of the talk is to intorduce main goals of NCP XFEL in the field of research, education, PR, peparing future users, involving industry partnes etc. Due to financial support of NCP XFEL we were able to organize the satellite meeting "Magnetic Materials in the Light of Photons, Neutrons and FELs", bringing together leading experts to discuss the latest advancements in magnetism research. Distinguished scientists will present tutorial lectures about their studies on diverse magnetic materials and phenomena, utilizing state-of-the-art experimental techniques. The session will highlight the unique insights gained from large-scale facilities such as neutron sources, synchrotrons, and free-electron lasers. These powerful tools enable the exploration of spin dynamics, topological magnetism, and emergent quantum effects with unprecedented precision. Through cutting-edge investigations, we aim to deepen our understanding of magnetic interactions at the atomic and nanoscale levels.
