Description

The remarkable versatility of the PS machine comes at the price of the complexity of its rf beam controls, which never cease to evolve. Historically, these systems have not only been maintained, but to a large extent, have also been operated by the specialists who put them together. How can we ensure their operational reliability when such expertise is becoming thin on the ground?
