“European Nuclear Science and Applications Research 2” (ENSAR2) Muhsin N. Harakeh Coordinator ENSAR on behalf of the ENSAR management group and ENSAR2 SSC NuPECC Meeting 11-12 October 2013 Kraków, Poland
EC Consultation In July 2012, the EC started a consultation process in the framework of Horizon 2020: “This consultation is organised in order to prepare future EU activities supporting the integration of and access to existing national research infrastructures.” “The aim of these activities is to provide a wider and more efficient access to, and use of, the research infrastructures existing in EU Member States, Associated Countries and at international level when appropriate.” “Provide the users of research infrastructures with a harmonised, improved and optimised access to the best research infrastructures in a given field.” “Increase the potential for innovation and technology transfer of the related research infrastructures, in particular by reinforcing the partnership with industry…” 2
Response • ENSAR responded in October 2012. The ENSAR2 proposal aims at: • Supporting the access costs to the research infrastructures at the highest possible level and >> than the few % of real operational costs today • Supporting the scientists, especially the young researchers, participating in experiments at these infrastructures • Supporting the novel instrumentation and theory developments leading to strong improvements of the research infrastructures through Joint Research Activities • Supporting the synergy of the community and promoting and facilitating the use of the research infrastructures through Networking Activities
