Accelerator Physics
The graduate-level accelerator physics course in 2-week USPAS sessions.
Course Overview
The U.S. Particle Accelerator School (USPAS) is the nation’s graduate program in accelerator science, run as a sequence of two-week intensive sessions hosted twice a year on /or near rotating U.S. university campuses. The “Accelerator Physics” course aims at first- or second-year graduate students who want a rigorous, modern treatment of the beam physics in a compressed format.
Last session of USPAS (summer 2024) of MSU team was scheduled at Rohnert Park, California. MSU team,
- Prof. Steve Lund
- Prof. Yue Hao
- Dr. Kyung(Kilean) Hwang
- Helena Alamprese (TA)
- Anthony Tran (TA)
taught graudate level accelerator physics course. The official website can be found here.
