Focusing Expertise - Shaping the Future
In the Jülich Aachen Research Alliance (JARA), RWTH Aachen University and Forschungszentrum Jülich pool their outstanding expertise in five research sections, a JARA-Center and four JARA-Instituts.These common efforts open up new research opportunities and facilitate projects that would not be attainable for either of the partners on their own. Furthermore, their attention is always focused on the grand challenges facing society.

The construction of Europe’s first exascale supercomputer, JUPITER, at JARA partner Forschungszentrum Jülich, is making remarkable progress. A key milestone has been achieved with the completion of the system’s second module, the JUPITER Exascale Transition Instrument (JETI). JETI is already twice as powerful as the JUWELS booster and ranks among the top performers on the TOP500 list of the world’s fastest supercomputers. This state-of-the-art system offers scientists at JARA-CSD unprecedented opportunities to advance their research, marking a significant leap forward for science in Germany and Europe.
