Description
EuPRAXIA is the first European project that develops a dedicated
particle accelerator research infrastructure based on novel plasma
acceleration concepts. Two separate facilities will be built by i
nnnovative laser- and beam-driven plasma wakefield acceration
schemes.
These new kind of mechanism offers a significant reduction in size
and possible savings in cost over current state-of-the-art
radiofrequency (RF)-based accelerators.
EuPRAXIA is one of the projects on the European Strategy Forum on
Research Infrastructures (ESFRI) Roadmap of 2021.
