Abstract: The European XFEL is a high-speed camera, a supermicroscope and a planet simulator rolled into one. Starting in 2017, its intense ultrashort X-ray laser flashes will give researchers from scientific institutes and industry completely new insights into the nanoworld. They’ll be able to study the details of viruses at the atomic level, the molecular composition of innovative materials, films of chemical reactions and the characteristics of matter under extreme conditions. DESY is the main shareholder in this engine of discovery.
