OMA stars in IPAC’17
The OMA project has starred once more on the stage of the world’s largest gathering of accelerator scientists and industries, the International Particle Accelerator Conference – IPAC 2017. The conference was hosted by the European Spallation Source, MAX IV, and Aarhus University at the BELLA centre in Copenhagen, attracting more than 1,300 delegates.
There were several contributions from OMA to the scientific programme. OMA fellows Andrea De Franco, Ewa Oponowicz, and Anna Vnuchenko, were all presenting posters with their latest results.
Project coordinator Prof. Carsten Welsch also presented a poster about the overall project, and participated in a special session on industry-academia collaboration networks, sharing the extensive experience accumulated in the group after coordinating no less than five large European Training Networks.
The fellows were joined by OMA Project Manager Magda Klimontowska who participated in the industry exhibition with the booth of the University of Liverpool. The booth showcased the OMA project along with the many projects led or participated by the University of Liverpool: AVA, LIVDAT, EuPRAXIA, EuroCirCol, and the spin-off company D-Beam.
The brand-new brochure of OMA was officially launched at the exhibition and became an instant hit among the visitors.
