Abstract
The Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) is a national research institute in Switzerland. It was founded in 1988 as a joint institute of the former Federal Institute for Reactor Research (EIR) and the Swiss Institute for NuclearResearch (SIN). ThePSIis active in a variety of fields such as nuclear and particle physics, life sciences, condensed mattedmaterials sciences, and nuclear and general energy research. As a ‘heritage’ from the two predecessor institutes, PSI operates a swimming pool type reactor (Saphir) and is constructing a continuous spallation neutron source (SINQ). SINQ is expected to be operational in 1995, and around that time the ‘switch over’ from the ‘present’ tothe ‘future’ will takeplace.Keywords
