The SPARC_LAB research team at the Frascati National Laboratory has recently demonstrated that the plasma-based acceleration technique allows to obtain an high-quality particle beam, comparable to the beams produced in traditional accelerators.

TEX (TEst stand for X-band) is the new infrastructure at LNF, co-funded by the LATINO project, devoted to the radiofrequency (RF) in X-band and, in general, to the development of all the technologies and systems related to a particle accelerator.

LNF program Summer Students 2022 is an opportunity dedicated to undergraduate or graduate students to carry out research activity in an experimental group of Frascati National Laboratory.

Gemma Costa’s PhD thesis, “Design study of plasma targets for laser-driven wakefield acceleration experiments”, has been selected as one of the winners of the “Francesco Resmini” National Prize for the year 2021. The prize is awarded to PhD students with a thesis in the field of Accelerator Physics and New Technologies.

The testing of the first prototype of the plasma accelerating module of the EuPRAXIA @ SPARC_LAB project has been successfully carried out in the Plasma_LAB laboratory.
