The CERN Accelerator School, in collaboration with UCLouvain and KU Leuven is organising a course on Advanced Accelerator Physics
This biannual course will be of interest to physicists and engineers who wish to extend their knowledge of accelerator physics and technologies and expand their professional network. The ideal participants should have completed the CAS Introductory course (or equivalent) or had several years of accelerator physics experience. The program offers core lectures on accelerator physics in the mornings as a follow-up to the introductory course and practical hands-on exercises in the afternoons.
The hands-on topics are radiofrequency, beam instrumentation, and transverse beam dynamics. Participants will select one of the afternoon courses from the three available topics.
As this course introduces advanced and contemporary concepts, knowledge of classical mechanics, electrodynamics, and mathematics for physics or engineering at the university entrance level is expected.
Early applicants will be given priority in the selection process. With a limited number of participants, we strongly advise you to apply early to secure your place. Waiting until the deadline may reduce your chances of being selected. Keep in mind that there is a limited number of single rooms available. Once the courses are complete, we will close the registration.
As usual, we will accept GRANT applications for participants from countries developing the accelerator field, which will otherwise have no possibility of taking part. You can find the details under ‘Apply for a Student Grant’.
