I.FAST Kick-off Meeting

→ Europe/Zurich
Maurizio Vretenar (CERN)
Description

Particle accelerators currently face critical challenges related to the size and performance of future facilities for fundamental research, to the increasing demands coming from accelerators for applied science, and to the growing applications in medicine and industry.

I.FAST aims to enhance innovation in the particle accelerator community, mapping out and facilitating the development of breakthrough technologies common to multiple accelerator platforms.

The project involves 49 partners, including 17 companies as co-innovation partners, to explore new alternative accelerator concepts and advanced prototyping of key technologies. These include, among others, new accelerator designs and concepts, advanced superconducting technologies for magnets and cavities, techniques to increase brightness of synchrotron light sources, strategies and technology to improve energy efficiency, and new societal applications of accelerators.

This online kick-off will give us the opportunity to meet together virtually four days after the official start of the project, with the goal of presenting the main features of this complex project, and of reviewing its main challenges.

Please register as soon as possible to the event in order to help us with the organisation.

A group picture will be taken before the morning coffee break. Please switch off your camera if you do not want to appear.
