 IBPT at the DPG Spring Meeting 2026 in DresdenOn March 8-13, 2026, the IBPT participated in the annual DPG Spring Meeting of the Condensed Matter Section in Dresden. IBPT junior researchers presented their work on ultra-high dose rate particle pulses, transverse beam size diagnostics, and machine-learning-based analyses of laser plasma accelerators, demonstrating the breadth and high level of IBPT’s early career research in accelerator and beam physics. |
 Girl's Day 2026 at IBPTOn April 23, 2026, the IBPT presented the “At Light Speed: Journey into the Particle Accelerator” workshop on the nationwide Girls’ Day, giving students a hands on experience at how electrons and photons are accelerated, steered, and measured. The students were introduced to the fundamentals of accelerator physics while also letting them experience the everyday work of physicists and engineers in a large scale research environment. The event included a guided tour of the accelerator KARA, showcasing its principal components and operational principles. more |
