Mai 2011 Conclusions • CALA is going to become the backbone for laser acceleration research in Munich from 2014/15 onwards • CALA applications focus on compact accelerators for medical purposes - but with EuroNNAc, we are keen for more... • CALA aims at combining medical diagnosis and therapy, and at developing new imaging/treatment techniques early on • Key electron parameters for CALA projects have been realized even with the current laser systems at MPQ • Access to CALA is possible through collaboration with Munich groups in the MAP framework Montag, 2.
