Milano sta spostando in avanti le frontiere della ricerca scientifica. Ma la burocrazia frena il futuro. Il fisico di ritorno Rossi: dopo vent’anni al CERN di Ginevra, ho trovato una città internazionale.

Developing high-temperature and high-magnetic-field superconducting technologies both for societal applications and next-generation particle accelerators is the goal of a new project in Italy called IRIS, launched in November and led by the INFN.

The kick-off meeting of the IRIS project took place at the INFN Headquarters during two days on November 14th and 15th.

We are proud to inform that the PNRR – IRIS start-up meeting will take place in 14-15.11.2022 in Rome at INFN Presidenza premises. The event will start 0n 14.11 by the welcoming words from INFN President Antonio Zoccoli and a MUR officer.

Two INFN-led programs concerning particle accelerators have been recently approved by MUR in the frame of the Call for new Research Infrastructure of the PNRR (the Italian leg of the EC funded Next Generation Europe).
