OpenLabs 2017- Playing with Science! 2100 enthusiastic participants to the LNF open day proved that playing with science is possible! Physics theorems mixed up with juggling, interactive labs and original scientific talks, all this contributed to create a festive atmosphere around the world of science.

It’s all ready to start with the 18th edition of the LNF Summer residential stages. The Labs will receive more than 100 high school students from all over the country who will experience the working reality of an international research center.

The SESAME light source, the first regional laboratory for the Middle East located at Allan in Jordan, was officially opened the 16th of May 2017.

Graphene is the first thermodynamically stable two-dimensional material found in nature. Its properties are extraordinary: from high electrons mobility based on its linear dispersion (Dirac electrons), to strong interaction with the electromagnetic field, high thermal conductivity and high mechanical hardness.

The 3rd of April, for the first time, the Laboratory will open its doors to students attending their last year of high school, for a whole day dedicated to an orientation towards STEM careers – Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. Students will learn more about the activities of professionals in the fields of Research, University and High Technology Industries. They will have a chance to meet young researchers and technologists and to visit the main LNF experiments.
