LhARA and the Ion Therapy Research Facility ¶

LhARA formed the basis of a proposal to the Infrastructure Advisory Committee (IAC) of UKRI. The proposal was prepared as a cover sheet and a competed pro-forma (not posted on the wiki). The following links document the discussion of the "alignment" of LhARA & ITRF and will later contain links to information relevant to the development of LhARA within the framework of the ITRF.
