4th EuCARD-2 Annual Meeting
University of Strathclyde
EuCARD-2, the largest collaborative accelerator R&D project in Europe is organizing its 4th and final Annual Meeting on 28-30 March 2017, hosted by the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland.
The meeting will review the status of R&D in Europe and the impact of EuCARD-2 in fields as varied as high field magnets, advanced collimation materials, innovative radio-frequency technologies, novel accelerator concepts, accelerator applications, energy efficient accelerators, new accelerator designs and paths to improving performance for existing accelerators.
The meeting is open to EuCARD-2 members, for whom the meeting fee is covered by the EuCARD-2 management. External and local participants willing to attend the meeting are welcome; they are invited to contact the meeting secretariat for information regarding conditions and fees.
