EuPRAXIA - A compact, cost-efficient particle and radiation source

Weikum, M. K. ; Lundh, Olle LU ; Wahlström, Claes-Göran LU and Zigler, A. (2019) 25th International Conference on the Application of Accelerators in Research and Industry In AIP Conference Proceedings 2160(1).
Abstract
Plasma accelerators present one of the most suitable candidates for the development of more compact particle acceleration technologies, yet they still lag behind radiofrequency (RF)-based devices when it comes to beam quality, control, stability and power efficiency. The Horizon 2020-funded project EuPRAXIA ("European Plasma Research Accelerator with eXcellence In Applications") aims to overcome the first three of these hurdles by developing a conceptual design for a first international user facility based on plasma acceleration. In this paper we report on the main features, simulation studies and potential applications of this future research infrastructure.
