At DTU (The Technical University of Denmark) we will visit a number of labs including:
– Niflheim: A 846 TeraFLOPS supercomputer.
– The FLUIDS lab: A lab specializing in biophysics with focus on fluid dynamics and cellular membranes.
– The Ultra-High Vacuum Lab: A lab working with sub 10 -13 bar pressure used to study catalytic material properties.
– Nanomade: A group that works with physics at a nanoscale, such as 2D graphite planes.
And several other labs.
Furthermore, we will meet students and researchers that works and studies at DTU.

EUROPEAN SPALLATION SOURCE (2)
In Lund – Sweden, ESS – The European Spallation Source is currently being buildt. The facility, which is the world’s largest neutron spallation source should be up and running in 2023. We have contacted them for a tour of the unfinished facility. This would give you an unprecedented insight in how these large-scale experiments are being built. But because it is under construction we will not know if we can offer this until a year before the conference.
