DESY
Examples
The electron-synchrotron DESY II and the proton-synchrotron DESY III were taken into operation in 1987 and 1988 respectively as pre-accelerators for HERA.
Plans for the future DESY is involved in the project International Linear Collider (ILC).
International Co-operation Segment of a particle accelerator at DESY 2500 external scientists used the DESY facilities for research with photons at PETRA III and FLASH in 2012.
Research at PETRA lead to an intensified international use of the facilities at DESY.
The accelerator produces a particle energy of 6 GeV. citation View inside the PETRA III Max von Laue hall at DESY campus in Hamburg.
Employees and training DESY employs approximately 2000 people, of which 650 are scientists, working in the fields of accelerator operation, research and development.
