2 content High fields that break matter, but keep order Guiding principle for order: not atomic cohesion (quantum coherence), but relativistic coherence (and plasma s collective eigenmodes) (Lesson learned in N. Rostoker s lab, ) plasma acceleration, plasma decelerator, plasma optics, plasma compressor, astrophysical acceleration,. High energy accelerators by laser Luminosity issue for collider---icuil-icfa Joint Task Answer to high rep rate and high efficiency fiber laser (CAN) Laser (not charged particles) collider for Dark Fields search CAN lasers : enabling technology also for industrial and societal applications: compact radiation oncology, directed gamma beams (nuclear medicine and pharmacology), homeland security, transmutation of nuclear wastes (ADS, etc.),.

5 Greetings from Michel Spiro (Former) 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 of particle 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 [Court. A. Oeftinger(CERN)]
