The laboratory
The LEMID is a group of about fifteen permanent employees, composed of engineers and technicians, whose main activities cover the development process of mechanical components for detection systems, the assembly of the detectors themselves, and the integration of detection systems on-site. Besides, the LEMID welcomes and trains students, interns, apprentices, in the frame of their education.
The main purpose of the group in charge of software engineering for scientific applications (Lilas) is to develop the software tools and modules needed by the physics experiments in which Irfu is involved. Software modules play an ever increasing role in the systems developed by Irfu for its scientific projects and they are also expected to address ever increasing demands for performance, durability and reliability.
