The Importance of Particle Accelerators
As initial remark to this opening talk of EPAC2000 it can cursorily be said that particle accelerators are certainly important because the salaries and pension funds of the participants to this Conference depend on the existence, the running and the construction of accelerators. More seriously, it is useful to consider the three main uses of the primary and secondary beams produced by particle ...
متن کاملOptimization of Particle Accelerators (opac)
The optimization of the performance of any particle accelerator critically depends on an in-depth understanding of the beam dynamics, powerful simulation tools and beam diagnostics, as well as a control and data acquisition system that links all the above. The oPAC consortium has carried out collaborative research into these areas, with the aim to optimize the performance of present and future ...
متن کاملCosmic Particle Accelerators: Summary
We review the main ideas discussed during the meeting and propose methods for a new generation of space accelerators
متن کاملApplications of pyroelectric particle accelerators
The discovery of pyroelectric X-ray generation in 1992 by Brownridge has led to a recent surge of interest in the use of the pyroelectric effect as a means of producing useful radiation. By heating or cooling a pyroelectric crystal such as lithium tantalate (LiTaO3) in a vacuum, a potential on the order of 100 kV can be generated. This potential is great enough to eject electrons from the cryst...
متن کاملSemiclassical geons at particle accelerators
We point out that in certain four-dimensional extensions of general relativity constructed within the Palatini formalism stable self-gravitating objects with a discrete mass and charge spectrum may exist. The incorporation of nonlinearities in the electromagnetic field may effectively reduce their mass spectrum by many orders of magnitude. As a consequence, these objects could be within (or nea...
