Activities First meeting was held in Saclay on September 9th Definition of the objectives Division of the work/report into sub-groups according to domains of applications (energy, health, materials, art, security, ...) October 12th meeting discussion with external experts final list of sub-groups first draft of Key Questions Next meeting December 18th in Paris - Sylvie Leray - NuPECC LRP2010 WG6 -
Objectives of WG6 State the importance of NP applications (transfer of knowledge, benefits for the society and for the community, improve public perception, training of engineers, doctors, technicians…) Review recent achievements in the field and the current state of the art: strengths / weaknesses. Identify open problems and new issues: opportunities / threats Develop medium and long-term strategies to tackle them Optimise interplay between fundamental physics and application end-users (identify present and potential clients and their expectations for each field). Analysis the various application dynamics : client, discovery, technology-driven Develop the European and worldwide perspective of the field, identifying synergies Formulate recommendations (support to existing facilities, interest of the future facilities, development of new techniques, structuring of the community, human resources) and suggest action plan - Sylvie Leray - NuPECC LRP2010 WG6 -
Methodology Division of the work/report according to domains of applications (energy, health, materials, art, security, ...) Subgroups with one coordinator + members of WG6 additional experts will be consulted Each subgroup should: review the state-of-the art in the domain and identify strengths and weaknesses identify opportunities/threats propose key questions define key issues formulate recommendations - Sylvie Leray - NuPECC LRP2010 WG6 -

WG6 – Key questions SG1: Nuclear energy KQ: How can the NP community help increase the sustainability of nuclear energy generation and safety? Fission: help solve the problem of nuclear waste, contribute to increase reactor safety, better use of fuel resources Fusion: help solve the issue of material damage and activation, help develop a feasible and cost effective technology for fusion power plants SG2: Health science KQ: New methods for producing radioisotopes, new isotopes KQ: How to improve simulation codes for hadrontherapy? KQ: Best particle for cancer therapy? KQ: How to improve the quality of imaging technologies based on NP methods decreasing the dose to the patient? SG3: Environmental and space applications KQ: Can we go to Mars? KQ: How NP can help in monitoring natural and artificial radioactivity and climate change? - Sylvie Leray - NuPECC LRP2010 WG6 -
WG6 – Key questions SG4: State security KQ: Which new, or modifications of existing, NP tools are needed to cope with new requirements regarding homeland security? SG5: Material science KQ: Testing and characterisation of materials to be used in extreme conditions KQ: Can we explore ultra-fast processes induced by high-energy ions? SG6: Cultural heritage, arts and archaeology KQ: How to improve non-destructive in-depth analysis? SG7: NP tools applied to other fundamental research domain How can NP help understanding history of minerals in geoscience ? SG8: New frontiers in NP tools High-intensity accelerators for Accelerator Driven Subcritical Reactors (ADSRs), ISOL based facilities, and Spallation Neutron Sources (ESS) Radiation hard, fast detectors with low material budget for use for accelerator beam diagnostics and beam loss monitors - Sylvie Leray - NuPECC LRP2010 WG6 -
