The FOM Executive Board has indicated its preference for Eindhoven Technical University as a possible new location for the FOM Institute for Plasma Physics Rijnhuizen. The institute will be expanded to become a FOM Institute for Energy Research. FOM, the part of NWO responsible for physics research, has the ambition to have Rijnhuizen become the core of a cooperation of university groups and relevant national and international partners in the field of fundamental energy research. One of the Rijnhuizen departments will in principle be relocated elsewhere; the infrared free electron laser facility FELIX/FELICE will be relocated to the Radboud University in Nijmegen.

Researchers of the FOM Institute Rijnhuizen and German colleagues have resolved the structure of a molecule in which the atoms constantly change places. The 'chemical chameleon' CH5+ is a model system for a class of molecules which play an important role in the chemistry of hydrocarbons. Using the infrared free electron laser FELIX and advanced quantumsimulations, the researchers determined the structure of CH5+. The team published its discovery in Nature Chemistry.
