Mobility 1999 – 2006 (PhD students not included)

Scientific publications

Computing infrastructure – TIR 2 GRID cluster (in upgrading) Today: 140 CPU’s, 6.5 TB storage 2008: 400 CPU’s, 20 TB storage

Short history 1956 ÷ 1977 Cosmic Ray Laboratory, Institute Atomic Physics, Bucharest 1977 ÷ 1990 Center of Astronomy and Space Sciences, Central Institute of Physics, Bucharest 1990 ÷ 1996 Institute for Gravitation and Space Sciences, Institute for Atomic Physics, Bucharest From 1996 Institute for Space Sciences, National Institute for Laser, Plasma and Radiation Physics, Bucharest

Most of our financial resources came from the National Research and Development Programs; contributions from international grants or institutions (EU, in the FP6 framework or ESA, in the PECS framework) contribute also to our research budget. Our budget in the last few years: ● M RON (0.51 M Euro) ● M RON (0.76 M Euro) ● M RON (1.19 M Euro)

Another kind of history… Before the early ’90’s: Some people left, no coming back intentions… During the ’90’s: Many people left abroad, but most of them keeping the affiliation Last few years: Nobody left (!!!), people started to came back!

We must expand, a new building is in project. Basement: computing center, small workshop Ground: clean rooms, offices First and second floors: offices (including for visitors) An auditorium (about 60 seats)

ROASTROPART A newly created consortium made of: ● ISS ● IFIN-HH ● University of Bucharest ● Polytechnic University of Bucharest In May we expected the visit of an ApPEC delegation…

What could we do for KM3NeT? WP2: Astroparticle Physics WP3: Physics analysis ● Exotica: magnetic monopoles, nuclearites, Q-balls ● Tests of relativity (“exotic” neutrino oscillations) WP4: System and product engineering WP5: Information technology ● Small scale tests, experimental models, etc.
