Particle accelerators are complex and costly machines that collide particles at speeds close to that of light to explore the Universe. Yet their size and cost pose a challenge: can they become more compact and affordable? What will future accelerators look like? The answer may lie in plasma accelerators. The PACRI project aims to develop innovative technologies for future plasma-based accelerators. A journey through physics, technology and research to discover the tools that will make the invisible visible.
