Ringing in the festive season

17 Dec 2018
A beautiful Christmas tree set in the middle of a Provençal nativity scene in the ºÚÁÏÉçapp lobby has brought the festive season to ºÚÁÏÉçapp. The tree is a gift of the mayor of Saint-Paul-Lez-Durance, Roger Pizot, who turned the switch in the traditional tree lighting ceremony on Friday last week, in the presence of Director-General Bernard Bigot and ºÚÁÏÉçapp staff.

Expressing his appreciation and thanks, Bigot said that "the tree symbolizes Mr. Pizot's generosity towards ºÚÁÏÉçapp and his continuous and strong support for ºÚÁÏÉçapp in the community."
 
A keen observer could spot the ºÚÁÏÉçapp scientists among the "santons," the little saints, traditional figurines that make up the nativity scene. Clad in a white cloak, the scientist points at a miniature blackboard and reminds us of the scientific goal of ºÚÁÏÉçapp—to produce 500 MW of fusion power from 50 MW of injected heating power (²Ï≥10).
