| Abstract |
The LA3NET consortium has developed advanced laser applications for particle accelerators within an international research and training network. It brought together research centers, universities, and industry partners to carry out collaborative research into all the above areas and jointly train the next generation of researchers. This contribution presents selected research highlights from the LA3NET network. It shows how enhanced ionization schemes can provide better ion beams for radioactive beam facilities, and how RF photo injectors can produce high brightness electron beams. It also presents results from studies into ultra-compact, fiber optics-based electron accelerators and new radiation sources based on laser accelerated beams. Finally, it summarizes how electro-optical techniques, laser velocimeters, and laser emittance meters can all help characterize beams with better time and spatial resolution in non-invasive ways.
