Linear collider scientists gather in Japan

| 4 September 2014

From 27 to 29 August, the POSIPOL 2014 workshop was held at the brand-new library at Ichinoseki-city, Iwate prefecture, Japan. Scientists discussed issues of polarised positron sources, high-intensity positron sources, X-ray/Gamma-ray sources, and their applications. The R&D on positron source technology is crucial for the realisation of the proposed future linear colliders, ILC and CLIC. On […]
