The founding members of EIROforum are CERN, EFDA–JET, EMBL, ESA, ESO, ESRF and ILL. They cover the scientific disciplines of particle physics, fusion, molecular biology, space research, astronomy and astrophysics, materials science and neutron research. XFEL is an international research facility that will use ultra-short X-ray flashes to map the atomic details of viruses, decipher the molecular composition of cells, take three-dimensional images of the nano-world, film chemical reactions and study processes such as those occurring deep inside planets.
