John Bertram Adams, Engineer Extraordinary
Early chapters describe his formative experiences in wartime radar work, which were to lead him into the field of particle physics, and his involvement in the building of particle accelerators at Harwell and CERN and the establishment of a laboratory for fusion research at Culham. In this account of Adams' life, Crowley-Milling follows the development of high-energy physics research, the development of accelerators to carry it out, as well as some of the history of CERN and its impact in leading European scientific cooperation. How did John Adams, with the bare minimum of formal education, become a key figure in the field of high-energy physics, responsible for the success of the European centre for high-energy physics research at CERN? As a colleague and close friend for many years, with access to Adams' notebooks and private letters, Michael Crowley-Milling presents a candid portrait of this unusual man. Michael C. Crowley-Milling is an independent consultant based in the UK and Switz
11th International Conference on High-Energy Accelerators
The Conference timetable had to be so arranged as to spread the main topics over several separate sessions. It was therefore decided to publish the material in these Proceedings under nine subject headings, irrespective of session. Within each chapter, which is preceded by a list of the sessions featuring the subject, all papers, invited and contributed, whether presented at the Conference or accepted for publication only, have been arranged in some lo gical order. The reports of the four Panel Discussions were edited or summarized by the respective Moderator in consultation with Panel Members. In one instance, shortened versions of the Introductory Papers precede the discussion. Where possi...

Handbook Of Accelerator Physics And Engineering (2nd Edition)
Edited by internationally recognized authorities in the field, this expanded and updated new edition of the bestselling Handbook, containing more than 100 new articles, is aimed at the design and operation of modern particle accelerators. It is intended as a vade mecum for professional engineers and physicists engaged in these subjects. With a collection of more than 2000 equations, 300 illustrations and 500 graphs and tables, here one will find, in addition to the common formulae of previous compilations, hard-to-find, specialized formulae, recipes and material data pooled from the lifetime experience of many of the world's most able practitioners of the art and science of accelerators.The ...
