I am expressing my personal support for the creation of CANDLE
synchrotron light source, a new international laboratory in Armenia. I strongly believe that this project could contribute significantly to
the scientific advancement in a developing country, in countries in the Central Asia, and the scientific community as a whole.

CANDLE will open great opportunities to conduct forefront basic and
applied research in numerous fields not only in physics, chemistry and
materials science, but also in biology and medicine.
CANDLE will be very beneficial to the scientific and industrial
development of Armenia and strengthen collaboration between Armenia and
the world-wide community.

I see that everyone guarantees his or her
support for this ground-breaking project , but it seems to me that
nobody asks him or herself why this project has not been implemented
yet. I could probably speculate about it. But to be honest, I don’t see
any logical reason why this project hasn’t been implemented by now. The
fact ist that the entire country would profit from it, not only science
in armenia, but the whole country’s economy and its reputation in the
world. Who or what is hampering the implementation? We definitely have
to ask ourselves this question. Because who or whatever it is, it does
not want the best for Armenia, it does not want Armenia to develop and
become a strong and influental player in the world. We have to take the
initiative and solve this problem for all, because this issue concerns
Armenia’s future and the canle project’s non-implementation may risk
armenia’s downfall.

It is now a universal fact that no other
single experimental facility can serve the cause of research in all the
fields in physical and life sciences as well as be precious to the
industry as a good synchrotron radiation facility. Having realised this
fact, many countries in different parts of the world are investing
their resources in creating such a facility. The latest examples are
Switzerland, Canada, Australia, China, Brazil, India, Thailand, South
Africa and many other countries. The move by the Armenian scientific
community therefore is very timely, and commendable and desreves all
the support from the Armenian Government as well as the international
scientific community.

The synchrotron radiation facilities are opened up the possibilty of opening new frontiers of science.
Myself I construct X-ray tubes for UHV – XPS-XAES
instruments, but during the visits in syncrotron labs,
I thought that the more precise X-ray sources are the synchrotrons. And Trieste, Berkley, Tsukuba syncrotron
scientists showed me their labs, and I have read many
excellent results from other syncrotron colleagues as well. Grenoble,
Hamburg, Osaka, etc. I think in the near and the far future the
synchrotrons will be very important scientific instruments not only in
general in science but in the frontiers of materials science including
the biological materials as well. As much as possible uniform
distributions of synchrotron radiation facilities in the world also
important.
As I know the Armenian Scientist are excellent, and they plan to open their lab for the wolrld science
community, which is important, and I am sure in it that there will be
some of the parameters in the planed new source which can not be
reached in the case of other sources at the monent. Go ahead.
Contruct an excellent new X-ray souurce as a synchrotron. Jozsef.

such as this one have a profound socio-economic impact, particularly in
developing countries, because they are the seeds for wealth-creation
and for the development of essential human resources.

difficult to underestimate its important in the development of science
and, first and foremost, in the restoration of Armenia’s scientific
potential.
I do not doubt that all public organizations and financial institutions
interested in the well-being and economic growth of the Republic of
Armenia and, of course, the Government of Armenia will use every effort
to support the speedy creation of the CANDLE International Center.

2. You international collaboration and exposure in the international scene.
3. You generate a local economy around the facility that has economic spinoffs elsewhere
4. You establish a scientific infrastructure that establishes you as one of the international players in the developed world.

scientists and for their integration in the international scientific
community. The development of powerful synchrotron facilities in the
present climate is becoming indispensable especially when the cultural
barriers between different disciplines, covering life sciences,
biophysics, nanobiotechnology, chemistry, physics, materials sciences,

Comments:
This
is an exciting project, technically sound, wide-ranging in its
applications, and broad in its constituency. Providing economic
justification for this project is not the intent of this petition.
However, a thorough cost-benefit analysis of a technical project such
as this would highlight both the tangible and intangible benefits,
which would have to be communicated to the taxpayers whose support and
willingness to finance it is the key.

Armenia is a nation with several thousand years of history, with a
highly skilled workforce, and an impressive number of talented
scientists and engineers (especially in comparison with its
population). She will do no wrong by pursuing this project
energetically, putting Armenia ever more so on the world scientific
landscape. As the list of the signatories of this petition shows, this
project enjoys the support and goodwill of many in the technical
communities worldwide. There is no doubt that advocates of this project
can count on both domestic and international collaborators for support
in the planning phase and in the design, construction, operation, and
use of the facility.

project will give a new strong impulse for development of science in
Armenia and the whole region. It will provide a good base for
development and application of high informational, bio- and
nano-technologies in the region and allow to establish strong
collaboration between scientist of developing and developed countries.
Moreover, many high level scientists of Armenia will get job and can
stay and work in their country.
