AIDAinnova: Advancement and Innovation for Detectors at Accelerators

Discoveries in particle physics are technology-driven; AIDAinnova will provide state-of-the-art upgrades to research infrastructures, such as test beams, in order to unfold the scientific potential of detector technologies. Due to the need for highly specialised detector equipment, often in industrial-scale numbers, the project will involve nine industrial companies, three RTOs (Research and Technology Organisations) and 34 academic institutions in 15 countries, in co-innovation for common detector projects, strengthening the competence and competitiveness of the industrial partners in other markets. The project has a focus on near- and medium-term future projects, as outlined in the European Strategy Update, published in May 2020.
