Toshiki Tajima (IZEST)27/06/2013, 09:40The science of laser acceleration has matured to the extent that we see routinely GeV electron acceleration over cm distances. On one hand, we at IZEST try to extend the proof-of-principle experiments to the 100GeV level by employing world’s large energy lasers. On the other hand ICAN program of IZEST has introduced the fiber laser based concept Coherent Amplification Network (CAN) so that the...Go to contribution page

Dr Roy Aleksan (CEA/IRFU,Centre d'etude de Saclay Gif-sur-Yvette (FR))27/06/2013, 10:10The recent major discoveries in particle physics have motivated further the needs of new large scale accelerators, accompanied with outstanding scientific and technological challenges. After a brief summary on the status of the field, we will present in this talk the various scientific directions, which these discoveries open. We will then discuss the different types of particle accelerators...Go to contribution page

Jens Osterhoff (University of Hamburg)27/06/2013, 10:30The European Network for Novel Accelerators (EuroNNAc) is part of the European Accelerator R&D (EuCARD2) project and aims at providing a forum for discussion and coordination of advanced accelerator R&D in Europe. Presently it has 52 member institutes with a majority from Europe but also strong links to American and Asian research leaders. The talk will discuss the role that EuroNNAc can play...Go to contribution page

Prof. Nicolae Zamfir (ELI-NP)27/06/2013, 10:45ELI Nuclear Physics, one of the 4 pillars of ELI, will be built in Bucharest-Magurele, Romania. It is meant as an unique research facility to investigate the impact of very intense electromagnetic radiation (Extreme Light) on matter with specific focus on nuclear phenomena and their applications. The extreme light is realized at ELI-NP in two ways: by very high optical laser intensities and by...Go to contribution page

Florian Gliksohn (ELI-DC AISBL)27/06/2013, 11:00The Extreme Light Infrastructure ELI will be the world's first international user facility for the scientific laser community. It is part of the ESFRI Roadmap for Pan-European Research Infrastructures of high priority, and it is presently being constructed as a de-centralized facility in the Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania. ELI will be instrumental for establishing and exploiting new...Go to contribution page

Prof. Gérard Mourou27/06/2013, 11:30Lasers are notorious for their poor efficiency. This is especially true for high peak power laser systems exhibiting wall-plug efficiency in the range of 0.1% at best. This situation is economically unacceptable and seriously impairs the spread of important scientific and societal laser applications in material science, environment, medicine and energy production. For 18 months the consortium...Go to contribution page

Prof. Vincent Michau (ONERA)27/06/2013, 12:05The large existing astronomical telescopes - Very Large Telescope, Gemini, Subaru, Large Binary Telescope or Keck telescope - include primary mirrors of about 10 meters in diameter. More, they deliver images close to the diffraction limit thanks to new technologies such active and adaptive optics. A new generation of telescopes, called Extremely Large Telescope or ELT, was proposed a few...Go to contribution page

Maria Douka27/06/2013, 12:20The European policy for Research Infrastructures is developed under Horizon 2020 with the aim to contribute to the reinforcement of the European Research Area (ERA) and with strong partnership with the Member States. Under Horizon 2020 more focused support will be provided to the implementation and also operation of world-class infrastructures such as ESFRI infrastructures. The effort...Go to contribution page

Prof. Donna Strickland27/06/2013, 12:30As our website says, "The Optical Society (OSA) was organized to increase and diffuse the knowledge of optics, pure and applied; to promote the common interests of investigators of optical problems, of designers and of users of optical apparatus of all kinds; and to encourage cooperation among them." In that spirit, I look forward to discussing ways that OSA can support the ICAN network of...Go to contribution page
