This seminar will take place at Daresbury Laboratory and will also be available via Zoom.
The Photo Injector Test facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ) has produced high brightness beams for more than 20 years now. After an introduction on the motivation to build this R&D facility to develop and optimise high-brightness electron sources for free electron laser applications and a summary of the...

After introducing the different CERN programmes aiming at maximising the impact of CERN technologies on society, the seminar will present some recent examples of applications of CERN accelerator technologies, mainly related to the medical field, but extending...

Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence and Data Science are finding applications in particle accelerators. Although most of these applications are being developed in a research environment, they can translate to medical and industrial particle...

In this presentation we explore the ability of artificial electromagnetic materials to manipulate light. These materials are man-made composites, homogenised to act as effective media, whose dispersion relations can be engineered to give rise to novel particle wave interactions, and offer a path to...
The LCLS-II X-ray Free Electron Laser (FEL) is CW X-ray FEL that will cover the spectral range from 250 eV through 20 keV with MHz rates. The FEL is being constructed in two parts: the first portion (LCLS-II) will use with a 4 GeV SRF linac to cover the soft and tender X-ray regimes from 250 eV to 5 keV and then an upgrade (LCLS-II-HE) will expand the linac energy to 8 GeV and increase the...
Extreme Light Infrastructure - Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) is the pillar of the pan-European ELI project dedicated to nuclear physics driven by extreme electromagnetic fields. ELI-NP will host two systems that generate extreme light beams with unique features: (1) a system of two high-power ultra-short-pulse lasers with the highest proven power in the world (10 PW each) and (2) a variable energy...
Samples of the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu were brought to Earth by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. Mineralogical, petrological, and physical properties of seventeen Ryugu particles measuring 1 – 8 mm indicate that they are most similar to CI chondrites. The presence of CO2-bearing water in pyrrhotite indicates that the original parent asteroid formed beyond the H2O and CO2 snow lines in the solar...
