Today, the Armenian government approved the project on establishment
of CANDLE international center based on synchrotron light emission
facility. Given the importance of this project for the applied
sciences and technologies development, the state will participate in
this scientific project, covering 25% of expenses, the press service
of the RA government informed PanARMENIAN.Net
Other states and international structures are invited to participate
in the center's construction and operation. The RA Ministry
of Education and Science will be responsible for the project's
implementation. According to Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan, the
establishment of CANDLE international center is a good example of
state's and private sector's support to initiatives of Armenian
scientists.
The complex will provide with the opportunity to have over 40 modern
testing laboratories, Director of CANDLE scientific and research
institute, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences Vasili Tsakanov
told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. "The project implementation will
allow conducting world-class fundamental and applied researches in
physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, ecology, microelectronics,
pharmacology and material science in Armenia, as well as will serve
as a driving force for the development of high technologies in the
country," Vasili Tsakanov said.
CANDLE is a project of 3 gigaelectronvolts energy, third generation
synchrotron light source. It was designed by Armenian scientists
and was highly estimated by an international expert commission, as a
world-class project and brilliant initiative for the development of
science and technology in Armenia. CANDLE is ranked among the following
projects on light emission source: SPEAR3 (USA), CLS (Canada), SOLEIL
(France) and Diamond (England.) The demand for such sources is from
3-10 times higher than the available possibilities in the world.
