ACHIP came to an end
The ACHIP research program, generously supported by the Californian Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation with around 20 million euros, has come to an end. ACHIP stands for “Accelerator on a Chip International Program”. It has funded research into this type of laser-based accelerator and allowed us to make great strides forward – these accelerators are now actually working, see earlier reports here. To mark the end of ACHIP, the Moore Foundation has published an excellent article on its website, see here.
