Online multi-objective particle accelerator optimization of the AWAKE electron beam line for simultaneous emittance and orbit control

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2020
Multi-objective optimization is important for particle accelerators where various competing objectives must be satisfied routinely such as, for example, transverse emittance vs bunch length.

Spinning Black Holes as Particle Accelerators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It has recently been pointed out that particles falling freely from rest at infinity outside a Kerr black hole can in principle collide with arbitrarily high center of mass energy in the limiting case of maximal black hole spin.

Development of a novel approach for construction of high gradient braze-free S-band cavities

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Vacuum breakdown is one of the main limitations to the operating accelerating gradient in radio frequency linear accelerators. Recent studies of copper cavities have been shown that harder copper conditions more quickly and can reach higher accelerating ...

Review of Quality Optimization of Electron Beam Based on Laser Wakefield Acceleration

open access: yesPhotonics, 2022
Compared with state-of-the-art radio frequency accelerators, the gradient of laser wakefield accelerators is 3–4 orders of magnitude higher. This is of great significance in the development of miniaturized particle accelerators and radiation sources ...

Machine Protection and Interlock Systems for Circular Machines - Example for LHC [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper introduces the protection of circular particle accelerators from accidental beam losses. Already the energy stored in the beams for accelerators such as the TEVATRON at Fermilab and Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) at CERN could cause serious ...

Particle Acceleration Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1994
AbstractHigh-energy particle acceleration is observed to proceed in a diverse variety of astrophysical sites ranging from the terrestrial aurorae to the most distant quasars. Particle acceleration is a fairly common channel for the release of large-scale kinetic, rotational, and magnetic energy.

Evaluation of MLC Thickness and Composite Effects on Collimation Parameters using EGSnrc and IAEA Phase Space Data [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Physics and Engineering, 2020
Background: Recently, multileaf collimators (MLC) have become an important part of any LINAC collimation system because they reduce the treatment planning time and improve the conformity.

Automation and control of laser wakefield accelerators using Bayesian optimization

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Laser wakefield accelerators are compact sources of ultra-relativistic electrons which are highly sensitive to many control parameters. Here the authors present an automated machine learning based method for the efficient multi-dimensional optimization ...

Terahertz-driven linear electron acceleration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The cost, size and availability of electron accelerators is dominated by the achievable accelerating gradient. Conventional high-brightness radio-frequency (RF) accelerating structures operate with 30-50 MeV/m gradients. Electron accelerators driven with

Particle Acceleration Mechanisms

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2008
We review the possible mechanisms for production of non-thermal electrons which are responsible for non-thermal radiation in clusters of galaxies. Our primary focus is on non-thermal Bremsstrahlung and inverse Compton scattering, that produce hard X-ray emission.
