Book Description
The idea of colliding two particle beams to fully exploit the energy of accelerated particles was first proposed by Rolf Wideröe, who in 1943 applied for a patent on the collider concept and was awarded the patent in 1953. The first three colliders — AdA in Italy, CBX in the US, and VEP-1 in the then Soviet Union — came to operation about 50 years ago in the mid-1960s. A number of other colliders followed.Over the past decades, colliders defined the energy frontier in particle physics. Different types of colliers — proton-proton, proton-antiproton, electron-positron, electron-proton, electron-ion and ion-ion colliders — have played complementary roles in fully mapping out the constituents and forces in the Standard Model (SM). We are now at a point where all predicted SM constituents of matter and forces have been found, and all the latest ones were found at colliders. Colliders also play a critical role in advancing beam physics, accelerator research and technology development. It is timely that RAST Volume 7 is dedicated to Colliders.

The Bean

ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 155
Book Description
The International Linear Collider (ILC), a next generation particle accelerator, will smash electron and positron bunches at up to 500 GeV (1000 GeV after a planned upgrade). The 31-km long collider's experiments will help scientists to understand the fundamental constituents of matter. Located at the ILC detector's forward region, the BeamCal is a highly segmented (> 90,000 channels) calorimeter that will serve three main purposes: ensure hermeticity of the detector for low polar angles, reduce the backscattering from pairs into the detector center, and provide a low-latency signal for beam diagnostics. The BeamCal specifications in terms of radiation tolerance, noise suppression, signal charge, pulse rate and occupancy pose unique challenges for the front-end and readout electronics design. Designed for the 180-nm TSMC mixed-signal technology, The Bean -- BeamCal Instrumentation IC -- is a 32-channel front-end and readout ASIC that will address the BeamCal instrumentation requirements. By employing a charge-sensitive amplifier and a switched-capacitor reset circuit, the Bean will process the input charge signals at the ILC pulse rate. Each channel will have a 10-bit successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter and digital memory for readout purposes. The Bean will also feature a fast feedback adder, capable of providing an 8-bit, low-latency output for beam diagnostics purposes. This work presents the design and characterization of The Bean prototype, a 3-channel ASIC that proves the principle of operation described.

Diffraction Radiation from Relativistic Particles
Author: Alexander Potylitsyn
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642125123
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
This book deals with diffraction radiation, which implies the boundary problems of electromagnetic radiation theory. Diffraction radiation is generated when a charged particle moves near a target edge at a distance ( – Lorentz factor, – wave length). Diffraction radiation of non-relativistic particles is widely used to design intense emitters in the cm wavelength range. Diffraction radiation from relativistic charged particles is important for noninvasive beam diagnostics and design of free electron lasers based on Smith-Purcell radiation which is diffraction radiation from periodic structures. Different analytical models of diffraction radiation and results of recent experimental studies are presented in this book. The book may also serve as guide to classical electrodynamics applications in beam physics and electrodynamics. It can be of great use for young researchers to develop skills and for experienced scientists to obtain new results.
