A new initiative for high-energy-density physics has been launched in Rostock. Through the “High Energy Density Initiative (HEDI),” the University of Rostock and the Helmholtz Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf aim to pool their expertise in this field, according to a spokeswoman for the State Chancellery of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.
The founding event was also attended by Manuela Schwesig (SPD), Minister-President of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, and Michael Kretschmer (CDU), Minister-President of the Free State of Saxony. Accordingly, the initiative’s development will be funded by the federal government as well as the two federal states.
