APAE Project Objectives APAE Working group Outline APAE Project Objectives APAE Working group APAE International Committee Areas, Conveners and Roles Meetings and Highlights Kick-off Medium-term Future work  The objectives, the working group, the status and the future. 14-15 March 2016 IPAB2016

Objectives The aim of the project is to create a European document equivalent of the "Accelerators for America's Future" document (US focus, 5 years old) The focus will be on applications of interest in Europe and for which technology developed for research can have an impact. The document will be entitled "The Applications of Particle Accelerators in Europe” US document is a kind of roadmap for accelerators, this doc is centered in applications. It will be not only a description of the status of each area of application but also the main research areas will be identified, what are the key technologies to be developed and the stoppers , the impact on industry and education and finally some key recommendations 14-15 March 2016 IPAB2016

Objectives It is intended for policy makers, as a result, it will be in two parts: Executive summary, focussing on the main issues for each country and in the correct language (International Committee) Supporting document in English (Conveners)   Avoiding duplications with others existing docs in Europe such: the Nupecc report, but exploiting the complementarity and synergies on work already done in Europe: TIARA, Accelerators for Society CERN document Documents from various countries Report will be finished by end of EUCARD2 April 2017 14-15 March 2016 IPAB2016

SAC Recommendations SAC fully supports the “Applications of Particle Accelerators in Europe” project, which will provide a document readily accessible and useful for policy-makers and funding agencies. The APAE document will be useful during EuCARD-3 preparations, and in future presentations to the European Commission. We recommend the early identification and involvement of a geographically broad (but numerically small) sample of policy-makers, and other members of the goal audience, who can provide occasional feedback on the scope and depth of the document, throughout its production process. We recommend including in the document a survey – even if approximate – of accelerators: their uses, locations, types, sizes et cetera.
