EuPRAXIA Preparatory Phase Project

Euprasis是一家基于等离子体技术的分布式、紧凑和创新的加速器设施。它已被选为ESFRI路线图2021年更新。在第一阶段，其由51个研究所和行业合作伙伴组成的财团将在罗马大都市区建造一个电子束驱动的等离子体加速器，从而为意大利中部带来创新、衍生公司的潜力、最先进的科学应用和充满活力的国际用户社区。在第二阶段，Eupracia将在一个地点建造一个激光驱动的等离子体加速器，在欧洲的几个选项中进行选择。Euprasis将在超快科学领域为用户提供服务，例如高分辨率医学成像、材料的深度穿透正电子湮没光谱以及欧洲最南端的自由电子激光(FEL)。它将为生物分子、病毒和微观过程的研究提供迷人的能力。因此，Euprasis将是超紧凑型加速器和应用开发中的一个变革性步骤。筹备阶段项目EupraxiaPP将为其全面实施做准备。

EuPRAXIA is a distributed, compact and innovative accelerator facility based on plasma technology. It has been selected for the 2021 Update of the ESFRI Roadmap. In its first phase, its consortium of 51 institutes and industry partners will construct an electron-beam driven plasma accelerator in the metropolitan area of Rome, thus bringing innovation, potential for spin-off companies, state-of-the art scientific applications and a vibrant international user community to the middle of Italy. In its second phase, EuPRAXIA will build one laser-driven plasma accelerator at a site to be chosen between several options in Europe. EuPRAXIA will serve users in ultra-fast science, e.g. on high-resolution medical imaging, deeply penetrating positron annihilation spectroscopy for materials and with Europe’s most southern free-electron laser (FEL). It will offer fascinating capabilities for research on biomolecules, viruses and microscopic processes. EuPRAXIA will thus be a transformative step in the development of ultra-compact accelerators and applications. The Preparatory Phase project EuPRAXIA-PP will prepare its full implementation.
