Abstract
The Frascati National Laboratories (LNF) are the oldest and largest laboratories of INFN, the Italian agency devoted to fundamental research in nuclear and sub-nuclear physics. LNF also have a longstanding tradition of using synchrotron radiation for interdisciplinary studies, developed over more than 10 years' experience using, at the end of the high-energy physics program, the electron-positron collider ADONE. After the phasing out of ADONE in the 1990s, the same infrastructure was used to host DAΦNE (Double Annular Φ-factory for Nice Experiments). DAΦNE is a high-luminosity, 0.51 GeV, e+e− collider, designed for a broad physics program, ranging from CP violation to physics of the exotic atoms.
