The new Institut Lasers and Plasmas (ILP) has just come into being at Le Barp, south of Bordeaux, alongside the upcoming Megajoule Laser installation.

Thanks to the LIL (Laser Integration line) and the PETAL (Petawatt laser), Bordeaux has the greatest High-intensity laser capacity in Europe. As such, it is becoming a top-line attraction to all scientists and industrials in this field.

The new 1,500m2 research facility is open to researchers who are engaged in civil research programs under way at the CEA/ CESTA facilities.

The ILP is a national steering organization, whose mission is to promote, drive and coordinate programs in the field of high-intensity lasers and plasmas.
