The Power of Data
Particle accelerators have
numerous applications across
many fields including
fundamental research, medicine,
electronics, environment and
energy.
In this special Symposium
scientists and educators from all
across Europe present highlights
and advances in accelerator
research and the enormous
impact these tools have had on
science and society.
They will give a unique insight
into current research
programmes and also outline the
exciting plans for the future.
Fellows from the European
networks OMA and AVA and
researchers from the LIV.DAT
centre for Big Data Science will
present highlights from their
research and share their
fascination for science through
hands-on demonstrations.
All presentations can be followed
by web live-stream.
