517. WE-Heraeus-Seminar
Accelerator physics for intense ion beams
Physikzentrum Bad Honnef
14.10-18.10.2012
kindly supported by the Wilhelm und Else Heraeus Stiftung
Organizer:
Sabrina Appel, GSI Darmstadt, s.appel(at)gsi.de
Oliver Boine-Frankenheim, GSI und TU Darmstadt, o.boine-frankenheim(at)gsi.de (scientific coordinator)
Holger Podlech, IAP, Universität Frankfurt, h.podlech(at)iap.uni-frankfurt.de
Focus and aims of the 517. WE-Heraeus-Seminar:
- Expected beam intensity limits in proton and heavy-ion accelerators
- Main challenges (in terms of accelerator physics and technology) for the expansion of existing facilities (such as LHC) and for those in the planning stage (such as FAIR and ESS).
- Current and future applications for high-intensity ion accelerators
- Alternative types of acceleration, such as laser acceleration
- Opportunities and limitations of the computer modeling of intensive ion beams.
The Wilhelm and Else Heraeus Foundation is a private foundation which supports scientific research and education with emphasis on physics. The foundation established in 1963 is the most important private institution funding physics in Germany.
The Physikzentrum Bad Honnef is the main meeting place of the WE-Heraeus-Seminars. Bad Honnef is located near Bonn. Directions to the seminar location are given on the web page of the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef . A map can be found here.
