Parts of the technical specification of the proposed site have been investigated by SWECO/FFNS on behalf of the municipality of Lund. Their full report can be obtained from the municipality of Lund. The expression of interest is prepared as a stand-alone document. References in the document to technical specifications for the ESS refer to the “Guideline on how to submit an expression of interest to host the European Spallation Source”, final version November 28, 2001. References to the specific questions in the guideline can be found in the cross-reference index.

Summary: This document from 2002 presents the expression of interest to host the European Spallation source in Scandinavia. This is a joint Swedish, Danish and Norwegian initiative. The expression of interest was submitted by the ESS Scandinavia Consortium. Eight universities, five research institutes, three regional research organisations, the national neutron scattering organisations in Sweden, Denmark and Norway, and the local political authorities are members of the consortium. This document demonstrates the feasibility of siting the ESS just to the north east of the city of Lund, with respect to technical, scientific, social requirements.
