描述了为非洲大陆提供光源的非洲光源项目。非洲光源(AFLS)项目现在已有近8年的历史。本文对该项目的历史、现状和未来进行了评估。到目前为止,在建立用户社区方面有相当大的势头,包括深入培训、便利利用现有设施、增加科学产出、建立科学网络和扩大当地实验室规模的研究基础设施。AFL的概念设计报告正处于最后编辑阶段。除其他外,本文件详细说明了社会经济和科学理由以及技术方面。AFLS得到了许多国家和泛非科学专业机构和许多科学学科的自愿伙伴的支持,整个非洲大陆和其他地区都有利益攸关方。目前的路线图阶段已扩大到包括通过新的战略工作队小组与政策制定者进行国家和泛非一级的对话。文件总结了这一进展,并讨论了该项目的未来。
The African Light Source project towards a light source for the African continent is described. The African Light Source (AfLS) project is now almost eight years old. This article assesses the history, current context and future of the project. There is by now considerable momentum in building the user community, including deep training, facilitating access to current facilities, growing the scientific output, scientific networks and growing the local laboratory-scale research infrastructure. The Conceptual Design Report for the AfLS is in its final editing stages. This document specifies the socio-economic and scientific rationales and the technical aspects amongst others. The AfLS is supported by many national and Pan-African scientific professional bodies and voluntary associates across many scientific disciplines, and there are stakeholders throughout the continent and beyond. The current roadmap phases have expanded to include national and Pan-African level conversations with policy makers through new Strategic Task Force groups. The document summarizes this progress and discusses the future of the project.
