The specific objectives of PACRI are:

  • Development of high-repetition-rate plasma modules, as required by the EuPRAXIA ESFRI project, capable of expanding their scientific reach from high-average-brightness radiation sources to high-energy physics.

  • Improvement of the performance of normal-conducting accelerator technology for X-band linacs, paving the way for high-repetition-rate operations (up to kHz) with a focus on efficiency and energy consumption.

  • Development of key laser components necessary to advance high-power, high-repetition-rate laser technology, as required by the EuPRAXIA and ELI ESFRI research infrastructures.
