Course description
The course focuses on the fundamental physics of an accelerator. It will cover the following contents:
- History of accelerators and basic principles (eg. centre of mass energy, luminosity, accelerating gradient, etc)
- Radio Frequency cavities, linacs, SRF accelerators;
- Magnets, Transverse motion, Strong focusing, simple lattices; Non-linearities and resonances;
- Circulating beams, Longitutdinal dynamics, Synchrotron radiation; principles of beam cooling,
- Applications of accelerators: light sources, medical uses
