IPAC'23 - Particle Accelerator Projects and Upgrades

IPAC’23 / PARTICLE ACCELERATOR PROJECTS AND UPGRADES 12 Project Region EMEA Project Location Orsay, France Project Type New Project Project Description The PALLAS (prototyping accelerator based on laser-plasma technology) project is aiming to build a laser-plasma injector accelerator test facility with the goal of delivering within a few years electron beams of 150-250 MeV, >30 pC, low energy spread and sub 1 mm.mrad emittance beam at 10 Hz with control and stability comparable with RF accelerator. The project approach is based on three research and development axis: advanced laser control, plasma target development and electron beam characterization. PALLAS take part of the R&D effort for EuPRAXIA technical design preparatory phase.
