CompactLight (XLS) is a three-years project, funded by EU in the context of the Horizon 2020 work Programme 2016-2017, Research Infrastructures, Design Studies. The project aims at designing the next generation of compact hard X-Rays FEL facilities, beyond today's state of the art, using the latest concepts for bright electron photo injectors, very high-gradient X-band structures, operating at...
The linac of the EuPRAXIA@SPARC_LAB project is based on an S-band Gun, three S-band TW structures and an X-band booster with a bunch compressor. The X-band technology allows reaching a high accelerating gradient and a high facility compactness, which are some of the goals of the projects. The accelerating structures are TW cavities fed by klystrons and pulse compressor systems. In the...
The company ADAM (Application of Detectors and Accelerators to Medicine), a CERN spin-off, is working on the construction and testing of its first linear accelerator for medical application: LIGHT (Linac for Image-Guided Hadron Therapy). LIGHT is an innovative high frequency proton linac designed to accelerate proton beams up to 230 MeV for protontherapy applications. A prototype of LIGHT is...
