Creating environmentally-sustainable facilities for producing high-energy particle beams is an important consideration for the accelerator physics community, the industries and disciplines which make use of particle beams, and for future generations of fundamental nuclear and particle researchers. Read more
Very high energy electrons (VHEE), which are over 100MeV have been proposed for both the treatment of cancers and the for material research in industry. Read more
An injector generates electrons from a cathode (metallic, semiconducting or based on carbon nanotubes) via photoemission, thermionic or field emission. Read more
Terahertz-driven acceleration and manipulation of non-relativistic and relativistic particle beams is rapidly evolving to centre-stage in the drive to novel accelerator methods. Read more
Would you like to work with accelerator experts at the University of Manchester and the national Accelerator Science and Technology Centre to build a new, accelerator-based electron microscope?. Read more
It is currently debated whether we are approaching or already passed the end of Moore’s law. Researchers are investigating new approaches to increase system performances. Read more
Novel acceleration schemes, such as THz-driven acceleration, aim to drastically shrink the size, and cost of future particle accelerators compared to conventional radio-frequency (RF) technology [1,2]. Read more
