Work Packages main aim

With such a range of tasks taking place in other work packages, and by different partners in different countries, HighNESS is set to be a complex project. As the leader of this first work package, the ESS will take care of the management and administration of HighNESS, making sure that all the objectives are achieved on time and on budget. This will entail:

supervising the implementation of the work packages and the broader objectives;
liaising with the project partners, and establishing effective communication between them;
communicating with the European Commission;
ensuring technical and financial reports are delivered on time;
organizing project meetings;
overseeing the dissemination of results.

About

Drawing input from eight European research institutions, and with a budget of €3m over three years from the EU’s Horizon 2020 programme, the project will produce a groundbreaking design for a second source of ESS neutrons. As a result, it will show how the ESS can be not only the most brilliant neutron source in the world, but also the most intense, able to probe everyday materials and tackle fundamental questions in physics with up to 1,000 times the sensitivity found anywhere else.
