1 Gérard MOUROU IZEST Ecole Polytechnique IZEST ENABLING TECHNOLOGY Greetings from Michel Spiro President of CERN Council As President of the CERN Council, I would like to express our interest and warm support in developing new ultra high gradient techniques ofparticle acceleration. Plasma acceleration seems a very promising avenue. The IZEST project is a bold and fierce adventure. It will open the way to a new generation of ultra high energy and compact accelerator and give access to totally new physics like probing quantum vacuum and testing the basic laws of physics. I wish great success to the IZEST conference and to the IZEST project. Best wishes, Michel 1

3 Why this obsession for Peak Power? Laser Peak power provides: o The Highest E fields to explore vacuum nonlinearity, dark matter, o Generation of high energy Particles from visible to TeV and possibly PeV o Shortest light bursts visible to Gamma Ray (as to zs) o Highest temperatures o Highest acceleration g IZEST a New Paradigm in Laser and High Energy Physics IZEST is based on large scale facilities developped over the past 20 years for Laser fusion Based on the large laser fusion, High Field Science, High energy fundamental Physics communities. Huge body of work in Plasma Physics 3
4 IZEST Triggering a Revolution in Laser Technology Driver Highest Peak Power will demand higher damage components based on Plasma Optics from J/cm2 to 10kJ/cm2 Laser Acceleration will enable 100GeV single stage to reach multistage TeV-PeV level Scientific and Societal Applications will require much higher and efficient average power: Project ICAN from single Watt to Megawatt IZEST Benefit from the largest Pump Lasers Up to the MJ PETAL-LMJ NIF LLNL 4

19 Thank you! IZEST is not ELI ELI is conceived to be an infrastructure aiming at many objectives. It is a user facility IZEST is the converse. It aim at one objective involving many infrastructures. It is a large R&D project. ELI aspires to be an european infrastructure While IZEST aims to be an international one. 19
