Although traditionally associated with high energy particle physics, the majority of accelerators in the world are devoted to activities other than HEP.
Although most of the cutting edge technology was driven by the needs of HEP, the widespread importance of accelerators has led to generic problems associated with cavity and magnet design, beam stability, injection, radiation hazards, vacuum technology,...
It is intended that the new journal will concentrate on novel aspects of the physics of accelerators at the component, systems and overall design level and allow developments in one area to be understood and considered in the wider context.
