Following the last on-line meeting of our collaboration held on 15 May, 2025 (https://agenda.infn.it/event/46874/), an in-person meeting is hosted at GSI, Darmstadt, Germany, on 18-19 May, 2026.
The aim of the meeting is to provide an informal opportunity to learn about the work of each group within the European community of target makers, developers, and users, in order to strengthen our links, in line with the objectives of EURO-LABS (https://web.infn.it/EURO-LABS/).
The EURO-LABS project will conclude at the end of 2026, so this meeting would be one of the last opportunities to benefit from such networking and, in case, to propose common activities or future projects.
Please note that this year the workshop will be held in presence!
The EURO-LABS project
The EUROpean Laboratories for Accelerator Based Science (EURO-LABS) project (https://web.infn.it/EURO-LABS/) brings together, for the first time, the research communities of nuclear physics, accelerator and detector technologies for high energy physics, in a pioneering super-community of sub-atomic scientists. EURO-LABS began in September 2022 and will run for 4 years. It received funds by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research Infrastructure services advancing frontier knowledge under Grant Agreement no. 101057511. EURO-LABS is a network of 33 research and academic institutions from 18 European and non – EU countries, involving 47 Research Infrastructures, ensuring diversity and actively support researchers from different nationalities, gender, age, grade, and variety of professional expertise.
Targets for Nuclear Physics within EURO-LABS
The European nuclear target community has benefited by funds within the EURO-LABS work package WP2-5-2 on “Targets for Nuclear Physics”. It is part of the work package WP2 “Access to Research Infrastructure for Nuclear Physics” and in particular of the task 2.5 “Service Improvements”, being initially a joint project by different institutions from France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Romania, and Switzerland while, the collaboration is open to whom is interested in.
