Issue 8 of Accelerating News is now available online.

From the editors:

In this winter issue, we are celebrating this year’s amazing highlights: Nobel Prize in physics for the Higgs, Prince of Asturias Award, the end of EuCARD, the start of EuCARD-2, the conclusion of the preparatory phase of TIARA and HL-LHC entering a new phase - from design study to approved project. We are happy to announce that Accelerating News has been assigned an ISSN Number and is now listed in the catalogue of the Swiss National Library. In addition to this year’s highlights, we report on TIARA’s recommendations for promoting accelerator science in Europe, energy efficiency of particle accelerators, the design of a test cryostat for low beta superconducting cavities and quality assessment during SRF cavity production. In the headlines are engaging stories on plasma wakefield, compact particle accelerators, 13.5 Tesla magnets, concept of a very large hadron collider and improvements in proton therapy. Amongst the upcoming events, we invite you to the CLIC2014 Workshop and the Future Circular Collider Kick-off meeting.
