Fundamental research and applications with the EuPRAXIA facility at LNF

4 December @ 8:00 - 6 December @ 18:00

EuPRAXIA@SPARC_LAB is a cutting-edge research project that will be realized in the INFN Frascati National Laboratories in Italy, focusing on advanced accelerator technologies. It is part of the broader EuPRAXIA initiative, aimed at developing the world’s first plasma-based accelerator with user applications.

Given the advance in the project development, we are focusing our effort on the potentiality of the new facility in a wide scientific perspective, including FEL applications, but extending to other fields in which our photon and particle sources can contribute. To this end, LNF is organizing a Workshop on “Fundamental research and applications with the EuPRAXIA facility at LNF”, to be held at Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati of INFN on December 4-6, 2024.

The workshop will be articulated in three sessions.

The first session will be devoted to the presentation of the EuAPS and EuPRAXIA@SPARC_LAB facilities, aimed at introducing the characteristics and peculiarities of the different sources that will be available in the next years in Frascati.

The second session will explore a possible research program in the field of fundamental physics. The different beams that the facility will provide will allow to explore different areas of physical research, from nuclear processes (such as beta decay in plasma, fusion reactions among light nuclei in the laser-induced plasma, laser vs ECR induced plasma applications and potentialities for nuclear physics), to QED measurements and laboratory astrophysics.

The third session will be devoted to photon science with FEL and betatron sources, such as high-resolution imaging and spectroscopy, enabling breakthroughs in areas such as molecular physics, structural biology, material science and nanotechnology. Additionally, the characteristic plasma-beam structure natively allows time-resolved studies with resolutions down to the order of few fs.
