Research and development of novel plasma targets for particle accelerators
A studentship is available from October 2022 on the development of discharge-ionised capillary plasma targets for applications in frontier accelerator science. Read more
Electron beam dynamics in dielectric wakefield structures for novel acceleration concepts and applications
A short, high-brightness and relativistic electron bunch can excite ultra-high wakefields in dielectric wakefield structures. Read more
Novel laser plasma wakefield (LWFA) experiments
Laser-driven plasma wakefield acceleration (LWFA) has been hugely successful in demonstrating high gradient and high energy acceleration of electrons. Read more
Understanding and optimising laser-driven ion acceleration
A studentship is available from October 2022 on numerical modelling of laser-driven ion acceleration. Ultra-intense laser pulses can rapidly ionise matter and excite accelerating fields that are orders of magnitude higher than those characterising conventional accelerators. Read more
FLASH VHEE Radiotherapy Machine System Design
FLASH-RT entails delivering a high dose over a sub-second timescale and there have been experiments on animals which indicate cancerous regions suffer lethal… Read more
Optimisation and control of a laser-driven ion accelerator using machine learning.
A PhD project is available from October 2022 on Optimisation and control of a laser-driven ion accelerator using machine learning. Read more
Timing stabilised links for AWAKE Run 2.
AWAKE is the world first and only proton-driven plasma wakefield acceleration experiment and it has successfully demonstrated the electron acceleration up to 2 GeV in a 10 m long plasma. Read more
Reconstruction of Transverse Beam Distribution using Machine Learning
The beam transverse distribution in CERN's high-radiation environment is measured by imaging the light generated by the particle beam hitting a scintillating screen, using cameras produced in-house based on radiation hard tubes. Read more
