The Libera Workshop is one of the main opportunities to meet and exchange knowledge with experts in beam diagnostics and data acquisition systems for particle accelerators. Participants learn about new applications and digital signal processing techniques based on the newly available technologies and have the chance to present the status of their projects.
Walk through the workshop’s history and meet all the outstanding presenters we have hosted through the years.
Our second Libera Workshop was hosted at our premises in Solkan.
We were joined by 24 participants from 13 different institutes from 3 different continents.

In 2015 our Libera Workshop was hosted in the romantic village of Štanjel, in the Karst region.
The 12th Libera Workshop was held from June 8 to 10, 2016 at Grad Kromberk, Nova Gorica, Slovenia.
The baseline for the 12th workshop was “Libera as a partner”.
As usual, the workshop focused on your experience and challenges. As we see it, some of the highlights include:
– The new Libera family is ready and embraces new applications – BPM electronics Beam Loss Monitors, Digitizers, X-Ray BPM electronics, Cavity BPM electronics
– Light Sources: The future of the high-performance electronics
– Maintaining an instrument-platform: something you wouldn’t imagine
– How we designed the first temperature-stabilized LLRF
– Exploring whether industries and institutes can engage in long-term collaborations
The location was Grad Kromberk, a renovated Renaissance fortress that stands on a hill on the edge of Nova Gorica. It is surrounded by beautiful parkland and by vineyards producing distinctive local wines.
Take a look at the captured moments:
The 13th Libera Workshop, was held from May 31st to June 2nd in Vipolže, in the gorgeous Goriška Brda wine region.
At the moment there were more than 200 units in use, which confirmed the high level of interest in Libera Spark and the other applications developed on the same platform. At the same time, we introduced a much more powerful platform that was at the center of discussion during this workshop.
The official slogan was “Time for Synergy”. We see synergy in companies collaborating with each other, being proactive with users, and taking more responsibility for the results. This is particularly true for medical accelerator projects in which we have (at the time) started to play a significant role.

After three years of uncertainty and online/hybrid events, Libera Workshop 2023 was organized as a fully in-person event, from May 15th to 17th, in the surroundings of our headquarters in the beautiful Goriška region, Slovenia.
This year was special, as Instrumentation Technologies celebrates its 25th anniversary, and there was no better way to spend it than by enjoying it with those who made it possible.
Libera Workshop gathered experts in beam diagnostics and RF systems at Guerila Winery, a beautiful estate overlooking Vipava Valley. We listened to exciting presentations about the use of Libera instruments all while enjoying the green views, local food, and biodynamic wine.
