Test center KITTEN for sustainable technologies on all scales will be one of the main KIT topics at Hannover Messe 2025, March 31st-April 4th.

KITTEN combines two of KIT’s major research infrastructures  - the Energy Lab and the KARA accelerator test facility.

IBPT KIT

The I.FAST workshop on the Stability of Storage Ring Based Light Sources was hosted by IBPT in March 17-21, 2025 at KIT Campus North. The 2-days workshop was followed by a joint experimental campaign.

The goal of the workshop was to share the latest information and knowledge on beam dynamics in order to understand and improve beam stability and the relevant hardware to ensure stable beam operation.

The article describes a very fast code to speed-up machine learning simulations and applications in particle accelerator physics. The code was developed by two PhD students, Jan Kaiser and Chenran Xu from IBPT, who both contributed equally. Now also other international accelerator centers contribute to the code. The article was hand-picked as one out of ten in 2024 in Physical Review Accelerators and Beams (PRAB).

New approach to tumor therapies to reduce side effects and costs and increase availability in the future – IBPT at KIT and DKFZ Heidelberg project funded by the Carl Zeiss Foundation.

Carl-Zeiss-Stiftung

New approaches in radiotherapy: project receives 900,000 euros from the CSZ Wildcard program. In the “UCART” project Professor Anke-Susanne Müller is working on a new method of radiotherapy in which tumors are irradiated directly in the body using an electron accelerator.
