I will present a perspective of energy-frontier colliders in the 21st century. After a brief historical review, several proposed next-, next-next- and next-next-next-generation circular and linear e+e-, hadron and muon colliders and their underlying technologies are introduced. Looking beyond, possible routes for dramatic future performance improvements or transformational mitigation, novel...

Large laser systems that deliver optical pulses with peak powers exceeding one Petawatt have been constructed at dozens of research facilities worldwide and have fostered research in High-Energy-Density Science, High-Field and nonlinear physics. The high intensities exceeding 1018W/cm2 allow for efficiently driving secondary sources, specifically laser plasma accelerators. The feasibility of...

The Accelerator-on-a-Chip International Program (ACHIP) has been initiated in 2015 to advance research on laser-based acceleration in dielectric microstructures. These microstructures can be built using the technologies of the semiconductor industries and integrated on the surface of a chip. Scientists from seven universities, three national laboratories, and industrial partners are working...
