We have been leading pan-European research networks across physics, engineering and life sciences to educate the next generation of accelerator scientists and technologists for more than a decade. In combination, we have coordinated the training of more than 100 Marie Curie Fellows.
Our research is realized in close collaboration with our national and international partners, enhanced by the unique facilities at Daresbury Laboratory and the Cockcroft Institute, as well as our collaboration partners from around the world.
Our research activities include:
- Antimatter research, investigating fundamental symmetries and interactions;
- Frontier accelerators, such as the Large Hadron Collider at CERN and its upgrade programs;
- Novel accelerators, including plasma wakefield accelerators and ultra-compact accelerators-on-a-chip;
- Accelerator applications with a focus on medical applications.
We are coordinating the EuPRAXIA Doctoral Network (EuPRAXIA-DN) and the Centre for Doctoral Training for Innovation in Data Intensive Science (LIV.INNO). We are a partner in the EuPRAXIA Preparatory Phase (EuPRAXIA-PP), FCCIS and AWAKE projects.
We previously initiated and coordinated the highly successful large scale DITANET, LA³NET, oPAC, OMA, and AVA networks, as well as the CDT LIV.DAT.
Our wide-ranging outreach and public engagement activities take an imaginative approach to make the benefits of accelerator research fascinating and understandable.
