EuPRAXIA targets the realization of a "EUROPEAN PLASMA RESEARCH ACCELERATOR WITH EXCELLENCE IN APPLICATIONS". The major objective of the original EuPRAXIA design study was the preparation of a conceptual design report for the worldwide first plasma-based accelerator at 5 GeV with industrial beam quality and two user areas. This report is now available via the project website.
EuPRAXIA is the first European project that develops a dedicated particle accelerator research infrastructure based on novel plasma acceleration concepts and laser technology.
High level fellowships will carry out an interdisciplinary and cross-sector plasma accelerator research and training programme for the new EuPRAXIA research infrastructure.
EuPRAXIA project concludes its conceptual design for a powerful, small-footprint accelerator, showing that plasma acceleration provides a viable alternative to established accelerator technologies.
