Description
CERN provides a wide range of testbeam opportunities to an ever increasing user base, with its 4 multi-user beamlines on the SPS North Area (H2,H4,H6,H8), 3 multi-user beam lines on the PS East Area (T9,T10,T11), 3 complimentary irradiation facilities (GIF++, IRRAD, CHARM) and several fixed target beamlines dedicated to specific long term experiments. While the technical description of the CERN beam lines is covered by another talk, we will in this talk show the developments in the test beam usage over the last years, present the beam schedule until the end of the current run (Q3 of 2026) and present an outlook for the test beam opportunities after the Long Shutdown (LS) 3, including the challenges that a high intensity beam program to the future SHIP experiment in the North Area EHN2 will entail.
