The Institute for Medium Energy Physics (IMEP) in Vienna carries out research in subatomic physics using particle accelerators in the medium-energy domain. IMEP co-operates closely with the Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati of INFN in Frascati, Italy, the Paul Scherrer Institute of ETH in Villigen, Switzerland, and with TRIUMF, Canada. Work at IMEP concentrates on basic research in the area of nuclear and particle physics. Other fields of interest are the physics of exotic atoms and molecules with particular emphasis on application-oriented research in muon-catalyzed fusion of hydrogen isotopes. Fourteen partner institutions (from a total of 34) all over the world participate in IMEP's fusion experiments.
