Using ultrasound to produce optical gratings from layers of air of different densities to control light - this has been achieved by the DESY Ultrafast Photonics research group together with TU Darmstadt and the ultrasound device manufacturer Inson GmbH. The project was supported by Hi-Acts and funded by the Carl-Zeiss-Foundation with 750,000 €.

In the DRY-KIN research project, DESY and Canon Production Printing are exploring the fundamental drying processes of ink to enhance printing efficiency and precision. By combining cutting-edge X-ray analysis with real-world industrial testing, the project aims to develop innovative solutions for next-generation printing technologies. Supported by Hi-Acts, this collaboration bridges science and industry to drive sustainable advancements in the field.

On February 18, 2025, the event Aviation Meets Particle Accelerator took place at the ZAL – Center for Applied Aeronautical Research in Hamburg. In collaboration with Hamburg Aviation and Hi-Acts, an exciting program was offered that highlighted the synergies between aviation technology and particle accelerators.
