This type of accelerator already generates much stronger electric fields in comparison with conventional ones, and may possibly replace them in future in impressive applications, such as proton therapy for the treatment of cancer cells, production of PET (positron emission tomography) medical isotopes, and generation of ultrashort neutron pulses, which are useful in material engineering. The afore mentioned new phenomena, such as relativistic transparency, are enhanced by the production of newly developed targets, such as a cryogenic thin solid-hydrogen ribbon with much lower density than ordinary plastic or metal targets.
