The research activity of the Intense Laser Irradiation
Laboratory (ILIL) is focused on fundamental studies of 
high-intensity laser interactions with matter and their
applications . The Laboratory participates to the
Preparatory Phase of ELI and HiPER European
Research Infrastructures. The Laboratory also participates
to the science, design and commissioning of the FLAME Laboratory.
 Flexible high-power laser systems and multi-purpose
interaction chambers are combined with the capability
of performing high temporal resolution spectroscopy 
from the IR to the X-ray region. 
Fundamental studies include plasma formation and heating
by laser beams, laser-induced instabilitiesand other
non-linear processes, atomic physics of highly-ionised
plasmas, ultrashort X-ray emission and acceleration of
charged particles.
The Laboratory has well established collaborations with
many leading international High-Power Laser Laboratories
and Facilities, as well as Academic Groups. 
The Intense Laser Irradiation Laboratory has a long-term
experience in the training of young scientists through several
schemes  including European Union RT Networks.
