5 Candidate for ICFA endorsed Workshop Laser and Plasma Accelerator Workshop 2011 (LPAW 2011) June 20-24, Wuzhen, China Workshop Chair: Jie Zhang (Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China) Local organizing Chair: Z.M. Sheng (Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China) Local organizing co-chair: W. Lu (Tsinghua University, China, and UCLA, USA)

6 Introduction of LPAW The Laser and Plasma Accelerator Workshop 2011 is part of a very successful series of international workshops that started in 1987 in Malibu. Since then, the workshop has been held in Asia and in Europe (Kardamyli, Kyoto, Presqu ile de Giens, Portovenere, Taipei, Azores Islands, Kardamyli). The purpose of the workshop is to bring together the most recent results in laser wakefield acceleration, plasma wakefield acceleration, laser-driven ion acceleration, and radiation generation produced by plasma based accelerator beams. The last workshop was organized in Kardamyli, Greece by RAL in UK and USC in the United States, and brought together over 80 participants (

7 Introduction of LPAW This is the only workshop dealing only with plasmabased particle accelerators (including radiation) with a true world wide reach. It is also usually organized at a more secluded location in order to favor communication and strong interaction between participants. Because it is organized only every two years there is very little overlap in the results that are presented at each workshop. It fits perfectly under the umbrella of the ICFA panel on advanced and novel accelerators.

8 Introduction of LPAW 2011 A distinctive feature of the workshop was the small number of formal talks and the large number or working group sessions. The 2011 workshop will be held from June 20 to 24 in Wuzhen, Zhejiang Province of China ( which was proposed by C.S. Liu one and a half years ago. The program will be following the same model. The workshop will be overseen by an international advisory committee and a program committee (see attached list) that include many of the leading experts in the topics covered. Therefore most of the world leading research group will be represented. The workshop will be organized around five working groups: 1) Laser Plasma Electron Acceleration (Experiment/Theory/Simulation) 2) Computation Methods 3) Plasma Wakefield Acceleration (Experiment/Theory/Simulation) 4) Laser Driven Ion Acceleration 5) Radiation Generation and Application. The working groups will be chaired by two (up to four) experts in the specific fields. The topics cover experiments, simulations and theory.

9 Introduction of LPAW 2011 (contin.) A special edition of Journal of Plasma Physics (Cambridge Journal) will serve as proceedings and will gather the essence of the results presented at the workshop, as well as the results that will emanate the five working groups. At the workshop a PhD Thesis Award will be given to the best thesis in the field. The prize is named after the father of the field, the late John M. Dawson, and represents an important recognition of the contribution to the field by a graduate student.

The last one on this topic was held in If we obtain funding from NATO it will also be run as part of the established NATO Advanced Studies Institute (ASI) series. -Aimed at young researchers in the final years of their PhD or the early years of postdoctoral research. It is planned to host around 80 national and international students with 16 lecturers giving 38 lectures and additional activities (simulation and Knowledge Transfer workshops, panel discussions and a poster session) over a 12-day period. -Bring together leading experts from Europe, the USA, Russia and Israel to lecture on fundamental and applied aspects of high power laser-plasma physics. -Begin with an overview and the theory of the interactions of intense laser radiation with matter. The physics of laser-plasma accelerators will be covered in detail, including recent progress and potential applications. Cross disciplinary topics including applications to industry, medicine and security, and other areas of science including high field science and nuclear physics will also be addressed. -There is a strategic need for training in this area, with the establishment of EPSRC-funded research consortia on laser-plasma accelerators (Alpha-X and LIBRA), ELI (Extreme Light Infrastructure) and the UK-led HiPER laser-fusion project."
