The mission of the Extreme Light Infrastructure Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) research infrastruc- ture are nuclear physics studies with high-power lasers and high-brilliance quasi-monochromatic gamma beams [1,2]. The laboratory will become operational as an user facility in 2019. Two high-power lasers will provide laser pulses on target, each of them having three outputs, e.g....

Invited talk
A new methodology to measure cross-sections for thermonuclear reactions that power the stars is being developed at the University of Warsaw. These reactions take place at different energies according to the respective stellar environment. Such energies are well below the Coulomb barrier and the respective cross-sections are incredibly small, often below the experimental reach. There is a lack...

Nuclear fusion from the interaction of very high intensity laser pulses and nm-scale deuterium clusters has been studied since 1999 [1]. These van der Waals bonded clusters can be easily produced in the expansion of a gas jet into vacuum. They absorb the laser pulse energy very efficiently (approaching 100% under certain conditions) and the process by which the ions attain high kinetic...

The Extreme Light Infrastructure-Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) facility, under construction in
Magurele near Bucharest in Romania, will provide high-intensity and high-resolution gamma
ray beams that can be used to address hotly debated problems in nuclear astrophysics, such as
the accurate measurements of the cross sections of the 24Mg(
,)20Ne reaction, that is funda-
mental to determine the...
