future, HELL has two goals: to explore innovative concepts of laser driven electron
acceleration, and to deliver a stable and reliable electron beam to external users,
according to their specific needs. Because of this, it is crucial to identify the possible
applicationsandtheirrespectiverangeofparameters.Anoverviewoftheenvisioned
experiments will be presented along with an overview on the current status of the
facility.
