Turkish Accelerator and Radiation Laboratory (TARLA) Think Future, Think TARLA
The Turkish Accelerator and Radiation Laboratory (TARLA) is a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary national research infrastructure established to promote scientific and technical expertise in the field of accelerator science, and to provide researchers and industry with opportunities based on cutting-edge technologies.
The linear electron accelerator within TARLA will include two beamlines and five experimental stations when operating at full capacity. The system can produce an electron beam with a kinetic energy of 40 Mega Electron Volts (MeV). This beam will be used for experiments involving Free Electron Laser (FEL) radiation and Bremsstrahlung (gamma radiation), as well as secondary particle production in the future. Additionally, FEL radiation can be used in advanced experiments in conjunction with other tabletop laser systems. TARLA’s light generation capability covers a broad spectral range, from mid-infrared (mid-IR) to far-infrared (far-IR) (5–350 µm), offering new research opportunities in light–matter interaction.
