ATHENA ("Accelerator Technology HElmholtz iNfrAstructure") is the name of a new research and development platform for accelerator technologies in which all six Helmholtz accelerator centers (DESY, Forschungszentrum Jülich, Helmholtzzentrum Berlin, Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf HZDR, KIT and GSI with the Helmholtz Institute Jena) are joining forces.
Together, the centers want to establish two German lighthouse projects in accelerator research based on innovative plasma-based particle accelerators and state-of-the-art laser technology: an electron accelerator facility at DESY in Hamburg and a hadron accelerator facility at HZDR.
All publications based on Athena and its sub-facilities are welcome.
