Hi-Acts - Helmholtz Innovation Platform for Accelerator-based Technologies and Solutions

Cross-center cooperation in the Helmholtz Association

The new innovation platform HI-ACTS - Helmholtz Innovation Platform for Accelerator-based Technologies & Solutions - pursues the mission of making accelerator-based technologies specifically accessible for industrial and medical applications.

The new innovation platform HI-ACTS - Helmholtz Innovation Platform for Accelerator-based Technologies & Solutions- pursues the mission of making accelerator-based technologies specifically accessible for industrial and medical applications. The participating Helmholtz research centers have unique large-scale research facilities that industrial companies and research-based hospitals can use. To this end, HI-ACTS brings together all the players to work in close partnership to integrate deeptech solutions more quickly into industrial value chains and bring innovations to society.

The Institute for Materials Research operates the GEMS central access platform, which provides a globally unique infrastructure for complementary research with photons and neutrons. GEMS will contribute the technical infrastructure at its instruments, in particular the diffraction and tomography beamlines at the PETRA III synchrotron light source (DESY), as well as the materials science expertise of the Institute for Materials Research to HI-ACTS. With HI-ACTS, Hereon will be able to further develop its services for industrial users. This will be done in close exchange with current and future users.
