Laser & Plasma Accelerator Workshop 2013 in Goa, India

Venue for LPAW2013

The JAI at Imperial College is helping to organise the Laser & Plasma Accelerator Workshop 2013 in Goa, India from the 1st to 6th of September.

The John Adams Institute at Imperial College London is helping to organise the Laser & Plasma Accelerator Workshop 2013, to be held at the Fort Aguada, Goa, India 2nd-6th September 2013.  The workshop is the latest in the series of successful workshops first held in Kardamili, Greece and most recently held in Wuzhen, China (2011).

The workshop allows the leading groups in the field of plasma based advanced accelerator techniques to present and discuss their work. In particular, five working groups will focus on the major issues pertaining to:

           • Laser wakefield accelerators
           • Plasma wakefield accelerators
           • Radiation generation
           • Ion acceleration
           • Theory and computation

The workshop also offers the opportunity to present the latest developments in laser and particle beams drivers, novel accelerator concepts, diagnostics, high-field science, other particle sources, high-energy density plasmas and applications of next generation accelerators.

The aim of the meeting is to be able to exchange information and ideas in a relaxed and convivial atmosphere. We hope that the Taj Fort Aguada with its collection of modern facilities sitting behind the ramparts of the 16th Century Portugese Fort, which overlooks the trendy beaches of North Goa, will be the ideal location for this purpose.
