Prospects for the application of laser-accelerated particle beams — •Ulrich Schramm — Forschungszentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (FZD), Germany

The field of laser-electron and laser-proton acceleration has matured over the last years to an extent that applications of laser-accelerated particle pulses can be envisaged in life science and material research. At the newly established 150TW laser lab of the FZ Dresden-Rossendorf we therefore prepare to exploit these technologies in close collaboration with the electron accelerator lab ELBE and the radiation biology departments of the center and of oncoray Dresden. Here, the status of the lab and first results will be reported.
