The institute has become an internationally leading research institute, contributed to important international projects, trained over 300 PhD students and made important contributions to applications of accelerators.
The afternoon has three sessions
A talk celebrating the scientific career of Mike Poole (former ASTeC director), session on first 20 years of the Cockcroft, session on the next 20 years of research at the Cockcroft.
