Abstract: EuCARD-2 is an Integration Activity on accelerator R&D co-funded within the European Union’s 7th Framework Programme. The Extreme Beams (XBEAM) network of EuCARD-2 extends, and goes beyond the scope of, the previous Networking Activities of CARE-HHH and EuCARD(-1) EuroLumi. XBEAM addresses, and pushes, all accelerator frontiers: luminosity, energy, beam power, beam intensity, and polarization. This is realized through five tasks: Coordination and Communication, Extreme Colliders (XCOL)m Extreme Performance Rings (XRING), Extreme SC Linacs (XLINAC), and Extreme Polarization (XPOL), respectively. In the first two years of EuCARD-2, XBEAM (co-)organised more than 15 topical workshops: the upgrade of KEKB in Japan, crystal channelling, the advancement of the CERN facilities, e.g. LHC upgrades and the Future Circular Collider, magnet optimization, space-charge effects, the commissioning of proton linacs, with emphasis on the ESS, key questions for lepton spin polarization, storage rings for measuring the electric dipole moment of electrons or protons. This presentation reports the major achievements of the XBEAM activity from 2013 to 2015, and outlines the further plans through 2017.
