Advanced beam control, beam diagnostics and beam dynamics is the MT-ARD-ST3 scope: strategy + vision.
The 2024 edition of the MT-ARD-ST3 meeting was held in Darmstadt with 77 registered participants. Two workshops on Continuous Wave RF Controls and Machine Learning (27 rp) preceded the meeting.
The 2025 edition is planned in Zeuthen near Berlin hosted by DESY.

The Helmholtz Initiative for Accelerator Research & Development (ARD) was established to strengthen development in accelerator physics and technology and to ensure international competitiveness. In this framework, accelerator scientists push the limits of today’s technology in a research network of six Helmholtz centers (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) in Hamburg and Zeuthen, Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ), Helmholtz Zentrum for Heavy Ion Research (GSI) in Darmstadt, Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin for Materials and Energy (HZB), Helmholtz Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR), and Karlsruhe Institute for Technology (KIT)), two Helmholtz institutes, eleven universities, two Max-Planck institutes, and the Max-Born institute.
This workshop aims to bring scientists from universities and Helmholtz centers together. It shall also serve to further strengthen collaborative projects at and between the different accelerator facilities, and educate young researchers and students participating in projects and experiments within MT-ARD-ST3.
