Description

As part of the Physics Beyond Collider study group, the CERN Gamma Factory is an innovative proposal to exploit the potential of CERN to accelerate at ultra-relativistic energies partially stripped ion with high intensity such that their low lying atomic levels be excited by state of art optical systems. This may enable a very broad range of new applications from atomic physics to particle physics, including their applicative counterparts thanks to the production of high-energy photon beams (up to 400 MeV) with unprecedented intensity (up to $10^{18}$ photons per second). A large variety of theoretical developments have reinforced the interest of the community in this project in the past two years as shown in the special issue of Annalen der Physik (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/15213889/2022/534/3). Recent progress towards the realization of a proof of principle experiment at the CERN SPS will be shown.
