Seven European networks have joined forces in the ANALYTICAL RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURES IN EUROPE (ARIE) working group and released today a common paper, which highlights how their complementary approach will help address the societal challenges of the Horizon Europe Missions framework programme starting in 2021. It gives input for the strategic planning of the new frame work programme and outlines, with examples, the kind of advanced experiments and measurements that the ARIE facilities can perform in support of the Horizon Europe Missions.
