6th Workshop on Nuclear Fission and Spectroscopy of Neutron-Rich Nuclei (FISSION), Chamrousse, France, 20 - 24 March 2017, vol.193
At the Extreme Light Infrastructure - Nuclear Physics facility (ELI-NP), high-power laser systems together with high-brilliance gamma beams are the main research tools. The status of the construction of the facility is reported. The emerging photofission experimental program with brilliant gamma beams at ELI-NP is presented with emphasis on the prepared day-one experiments. The physics cases of the flagship experiments at ELI-NP are discussed, as well as the related instruments which are under construction for their realization.
