Excursion to the construction site of the SwissFEL. The Paul Scherrer Institute is constructing a new scientific large-scale facility – the SwissFEL X-ray free-electron laser. This will provide new opportunities for cutting-edge Swiss research. The SwissFEL is scheduled to go into operation at the end of 2016. For more information please see
