The FLASHForward experimental facility is a high-performance test-bed forprecision plasma-wakefield research, aiming to accelerate high-quality electronbeams to GeV-levels in a few centimetres of ionised gas. The plasma is createdby ionising gas in a gas cell either by a high-voltage discharge or ahigh-intensity laser pulse. The electrons to be accelerated will either beinjected internally from the plasma background or externally from the FLASHsuperconducting RF front end. In both cases the wakefield will be driven byelectron beams provided by the FLASH gun and linac modules operating with a 10Hz macro-pulse structure, generating 1.25 GeV, 1 nC electron bunches at up to 3MHz micro-pulse repetition rates. At full capacity, this FLASH bunch-trainstructure corresponds to 30 kW of average power, orders of magnitude higherthan drivers available to other state-of-the-art LWFA and PWFA experiments.This high-power functionality means FLASHForward is the only plasma-wakefieldfacility in the world with the immediate capability to develop, explore, andbenchmark high-average-power plasma-wakefield research essential fornext-generation facilities. The operational parameters and technical highlightsof the experiment are discussed, as well as the scientific goals andhigh-average-power outlook.
