The Horizon2020-funded project EuPRAXIA is a conceptual design study aiming to develop a multi-GeV electron accelerator test facility based on plasma acceleration. With particular emphasis on compactness and cost-effectiveness, the project focuses on achieving high beam quality, stability and robustness, unprecedented for plasma accelerators and essential for their development towards user...
EuPRAXIA is the first European project that develops a dedicated accelerator research infrastructure based on novel plasma concepts and laser technology. The aim is to construct electron accelerators with beam energy of 1 to 5 GeV, a significantly improved beam quality and demonstrated benefit in size and cost when compared to RF technology. EuPRAXIA accelerators will enable versatile...
We present the conceptual design of a new, advanced radiation source facility called MariX (Multi-disciplinary Advanced Research Infrastructure for the generation and application of X-rays). The facility has been conceived, following a scientific case delineated by users of FELs and Light Sources, for delivering fs-scale, high repetition rate, X-ray pulses for time-resolved fine analysis of...
