Issue 49
December 2024
Welcome to the winter edition of Accelerating News!
In this issue we get an update on the EU-funded project HEARTS and how it has taken an important step in its mission to increase Europe's space radiation testing capabilities. We also look at the 2024 achievements of CERN's high-luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider, find out about a new project that aims to advance plasma accelerator technologies, and learn about how the proposed Future Circular Collider could impact innovations in sectors outside of particle physics.
In two technical articles, we look into a promising new thermal conducting material that can be used for future accelerators, and the vast potential of high-temperature superconductors.
On the events calendar:
- 10 - 14 March: the CERN Accelerator School course on the basics of accelerator physics
- 30 April - 13 May: The CERN Latin-American school of high-energy physics
- 1 - 6 June: The 16th International Particle Accelerator Conference
