Particle Accelerator Physics

Beschreibung

Particle Accelerator Physics is an in-depth and comprehensive introduction to the field of high-energy particle acceleration and beam dynamics. Part I gathers the basic tools, recalling the essentials of electrostatics and electrodynamics as well as of particle dynamics in electromagnetic fields. Part II is an extensive primer in beam dynamics, followed in Part III by the introduction and description of the main beam parameters. Part IV is devoted to the treatment of perturbations in beam dynamics. Part V discusses the details of charged particle accleration. Part VI and Part VII introduce the more advanced topics of coupled beam dynamics and the description of very intense beams. Part VIII is an exhaustive treatment of radiation from accelerated charges and introduces important sources of coherent radiation such as synchrotrons and free-electron lasers. Part IX collects the appendices gathering useful mathematical and physical formulae, parameters and units. Solutions to many end-of-chapter problems are given. This textbook is suitable for an intensive two-semester course starting at the advanced undergraduate level.

This book provides an in-depth and comprehensive introduction to the field of high-energy particle acceleration and beam dynamics. This is the first modern and comprehensive textbook in the field. Solutions to the many end-of-chapter problems are given.

Combined new edition of a strong-selling and well-received graduate level tutorial

This book provides an in-depth and comprehensive introduction to the field of high-energy particle acceleration and beam dynamics. It begins by gathering the basic tools, recalling the essentials of electrostatics and electrodynamics as well as of particle dynamics in electromagnetic fields. Coverage first provides an extensive primer in beam dynamics, this is followed by an introduction and description of the main beam parameters. The book also covers the treatment of perturbations in beam dynamics and discusses the details of charged particle acceleration. In addition, it introduces more advanced topics of coupled beam dynamics with a description of very intense beams and offers exhaustive treatment of radiation from accelerated charges. A collection of appendices offer useful mathematical and physical formulae, parameters and units. Solutions to the many end-of-chapter problems are given.
