Lasers are crucial for the successful operation and continuous optimization of particle accelerators. To address this LA³NET is organising an international school on laser applications that is open for participants from within and outside the network.
The school will follow the successful format pioneered in the DITANET project. Renowned lecturers will complement partner expertise to cover topics such as:
In addition to the lectures there will be study groups, poster sessions and two evening seminars on major international initiatives in the laser and light sources field. There will also be opportunities for discussion and networking at evening events and during an excursion on the Wednesday afternoon.
The school will be hosted by GANIL, France and organized by the LA³NET consortium.
Several scholarships for early stage researchers outside the network will be available. The scholarships will cover the cost of the school but recipients will have to arrange and pay for their own travel costs to the event.
The deadline for receiving scholarship application forms (see Material) is 17 August 2012 and all applicants will be informed of the decision on awarding them a scholarship by 31 August. The decision of the project panel will be final.
