Poland joins the company
Poland sends shareholder into the European XFEL GmbH.
At the beginning of September, the country of Poland joined the European XFEL GmbH, with the Andrzej Soltan Institute for Nuclear Studies (IPJ) as its designated shareholder. The GmbH thus now has eight members.
The construction and operation of the European XFEL has been entrusted to a non-profit limited liability company under German law, the European X-Ray Free-Electron Laser Facility GmbH (European XFEL GmbH). The governments of the international partner states designate their representatives which mostly are research institutes.
