	Applications of laser plasma accelerated particle beams ranging from driving of light sources to radiation therapy require the scaling of beam energy and charge as well as reproducible operating conditions. Both issues have motivated the development of novel table-top class Petawatt laser systems (e.g., 30J pulse energy in 30fs) with unprecedented pulse control, here represented by the Draco-PW system recently commissioned at HZDR Dresden. First results will be presented on laser wakefield electron acceleration where in the beam loading regime high bunch charges in the nC range could be efficiently accelerated with good beam quality, and on proton acceleration where pulsed magnet beam transport ensured depth dose distributions allowing for tumor irradiation in animal models.

	At high energies laser cooling is a very promising technique to reduce phase space of beams of high energy ions effciently and fast. With the advent of new facilities such as FAIR and HIAF research focuses on developing robust laser cooling setups. This requires an understanding of the underlying beam dynamics at high beam intensities, the development of reliable laser systems that can be used to cool a large variety of ion species and optical detection systems that complement standard accelerator beam diagnostics. Based on the lessons learned from ongoing experiments at the ESR at GSI, Darmstadt, and the CSRe at IMP, Lanzhou, the important design aspects of future laser cooling installations will be discussed. The talk will follow a how-to approach to discuss key design aspects of laser cooling setups and emphasize the important connection between advanced beam dynamics studies and optical control and diagnostics.

	The Horizon 2020 Project EuPRAXIA ('European Plasma Research Accelerator with eXcellence In Applications') aims at producing a design report of a highly compact and cost-effective European facility with multi-GeV electron beams using plasma as the acceleration medium. The accelerator facility will be based on a laser and/or a beam driven plasma acceleration approach and will be used for photon science, high-energy physics (HEP) detector tests, and other applications such as compact X-ray sources for medical imaging or material processing. EuPRAXIA started in November 2015 and will deliver the design report in October 2019. EuPRAXIA aims to be included on the ESFRI roadmap in 2020.

TUPIK010	Investigating the Key Parameters of a Staged Laser- and Particle Driven Plasma Wakefield Accelerator Experiment	1703

	Plasma wakefield accelerators can be driven by either a powerful laser pulse (LWFA) or a high-current charged particle beam (PWFA). A plasma accelerator combining both schemes consists of a LWFA providing an electron beam which subsequently drives a PWFA in the highly nonlinear regime. This scenario explicitly makes use of the advantages unique to each method, particularly exploiting the capabilities of PWFA schemes to provide high-brightness beams, while the LWFA stage inherently fulfils the demand for compact high-current electron bunches required as PWFA drivers. Effectively, the sub-sequent PWFA stage operates as beam brightness and energy booster of the initial LWFA output, aiming to match the demanding beam quality requirements of accelerator based light sources. We report on numerical studies towards the implementation of a proof-of-principle experiment at the DRACO laser facility at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR).
