  1. NAPAC 2019Student Program Short Courses and Student Tutorials Alysson Gold (SLAC), Steve Lund (MSU/FRIB, USPAS) January 16th, 2019 NAPAC 2019 SPCC Meeting #2

  2. Outline • Proposed Student Programs • Recent AccelConf Tutorials and Short Courses • Short Courses • Discussion • Proposed Short Courses • Tutorials • Discussion • Proposed Tutorials • Option 1: Connect to Plenary or Contemporary Topics • Option 2: Basic Topics • Conclusions

  3. Student Programs Orange • Short Courses • Sunday, 9am – 1pm • 2 x 4-hour or 4 x 2-hour • Science and engineering tracks • Cater breakfast and/or lunch ? • Tutorials • Tue – Fri, 8:30am – 10am • 4x, 1.5-hour tutorials • Concurrent with sessions + posters

  4. Recent AccelConf Tutorials + Feedback Adapted T. Raubenheimer • PAC’11, NAPAC’13: 4 x 1 hour morning tutorials (8:30am – 9:30am) to introduce topics for new members • Feedback: 1 hour was fine, any longer & talks should be broken up into smaller subjects or include a break • NAPAC’16: 4 x 1.5 hour morning tutorials (8:30am – 10:00am) and 3 x 4-hour parallel short courses on Sunday morning • Feedback: 1.5 hours was fine. “Gives opportunity to present with more detail & historical context. 1 hour is more of a seminar.” – S. Prestemon • IPAC’18: 4 x 1h45 + 4 x 1h serial tutorials Saturday and Sunday • Feedback: Some presenters preferred the shorter time slots / better fit for certain topics. >1.5 hours without break is too much. I would have enjoyed more student interaction during the talks (questions for the audience, short exercises…)

  5. Recent Accel Conf Tutorials + Feedback Adapted T. Raubenheimer • NAPAC’13 (1 hour talks): • Progress Toward High-energy, High-current ERLs, C. Mayes (Cornell) • Physics of Polarized Protons in Accelerators, M. Bai (GSI) • Genetic Algorithms and their Applications in Accelerator Physics, A. Hofler (Jlab) • Femtosecond Timing and Synchronization of Laser Systems for Accelerators, J. Frisch (SLAC) • NAPAC’16 (1.5 hour talks): • Risk Management of Complex Systems, John Thomas (MIT) • Superconducting Accelerator Magnets, Soren Prestemon (LBNL) • RF Superconductivity, Jean Delayen (ODU) • A Discussion on Phase Space and Beam Emittance, Rui Li (JLab)

  6. Recent AccelConf Short Courses + Feedback Adapted T. Raubenheimer • NAPAC’16 (8:30 am – noon, Sunday before conference): • High-Power Proton Beams and Applications, M. Syphers (NIU) and S. Henderson (ANL) • Third-and-a-Half and Fourth Generation Light Sources, K.J. Kim (U. Chicago) and F. Sannibale (LBNL) • Manipulation of Electron Beam Phase Space, Y. Sun (ANL) and G. Stupakov (SLAC) • https://napac2016.aps.anl.gov/Events/Short-Courses • IPAC’18 (Saturday all day & Sunday morning): • Eight courses: https://student-tutorials.ipac18.org/program.html • 60 students registered, ~ 50 students attended

  7. Recent AccelConf Short Courses + Feedback • CARRI ‘18: • Vacuum (3 hrs, 2 parts), Walt van Hemert, Aligent Tech • Ion Beam Analysis (2 hours), Yongqiang Want, LANL • Relevance of Electrostatic Accelerators in Industrial and Research Applications and Recent Developments at NEC (1.5 hours), Eric Alderson, National Electrostatic Corp • Electrostatic Accelerator Basics and Recent Developments at HVE (1.5 hours), NicolaePodaru, High Voltage Engineering Europa • Cyclotrons: Beam Production and Applications (1.5 hours), Brian Roeder, Cyclotron Institute, Texas A&M U • Classes parallel with sessions. Irregular format & approaches • CAARI puts high emphasis on applications and intends to continue “class” series with different topics every 2 years.

  8. Short Course Discussion: Sunday 4 hours4 x 2-hours or 2 x 4-hours, Science & Eng Threads • Likely not many show in advance for Sunday • Much work for instructors to prepare 3 hours of lectures for few students • Improve: Recruit local MSU students: ~ 15 possible • Proposal: Use USPAS courses linked to future sessions • Exploit developed USPAS materials: increase quality & reduce prep load • Brief exposure to established topics: Can get more via linked USPAS class • Dual use posting tutorials on USPAS site • Motivate improvements & Increase exposure • If works repeat pattern in future • Improve quality with repetition & build choice library to ease process • Possible minuses? • Less chance for new talent • But USPAS “teams” typically experienced/inexperience (one deliver) • Past IEEE sponsorship: Issue posting materials on USPAS web site? • Organize parallel Science & Engineering threads • Avoid cross compete

  9. Short Course Organization: Sunday Option 1: 2 x 3:30 Option 2: 4 x 1:45 Room 2 Room 1 Room 2 Room 1 • 30minbreak, topic reset • 30minbreak, topic continued • Student Posters follow 14:00 Recommend Option 1 Lower turnout likely More time for real course vs similar to Tutorials

  10. Proposed Short Courses derived from USPAS Red: Science, Pick 1 or 2 Blue: Eng, Pick 1 or 2 • USPAS June 2020 Session • Fundamentals: Sannibale (LBNL) • Grad Accel Physics: Lund (MSU/USPAS) • CM & EM for Accel: Eldred (Fermilab) • Measure & Control Beams: Minty (BNL) • RF Supercon: Belomestnykh (Fermilab) • Cyclotrons (overview): Baartman (TRIUMF) • Cyclotrons (build): Koeth (U Maryland) • Laser Phys for Accel: TBA • Beam Cooling Survey: TBA • LLRF: TBA • Timing & Synch: Wilcox (LBNL) • USPAS January 2020 Session • Fundamentals: Emery (ANL) • Grad Accel Physics: Bogatz (Jlab) • Microwave Measurements: de Santis (LBNL) • RF Systems: Nassiri (ANL) • Space-Charge: Lund (MSU/USPAS) • Particle Wakefield Accel: Rosenzweig (UCLA) • Laser-Plasma Accel: Mori (UCLA) • Photocathode Physics: Bazarov (Cornell) • Electron Injectors: Filippetto (LBNL) • Eng for Accel: Yakovlev (Fermilab) • Magnetic Sys + Insertion Dev: Schlueter (LBNL)

  11. Tutorial Discussion: Tue-Fri (4), 1.5 hours each • Concurrent with Sessions + Posters • Choose “orthogonal” topics to minimize draw competition • Choose both Engineering, Physics/Modeling topics • Option 1: Connect tutorials to Plenary Topics • Same speakers / group to give chance for basic fill in elaborating • Different speakers • Option 2: Basic Tutorial Topics • Examples: Dynamics, Beam Sources, SRF Cavities, … • Mostly draw from recent past USPAS courses in similar logic to short courses • Mix Options 1 & 2 ? • Open Questions: • 1 or 1.5 hours? • 8:30am, or is there a better time to not conflict with existing programming. • Could we add an interactive / short exercise component to the tutorials, especially if they are 1.5 hours?

  12. NAPAC 2019 Tutorials: Option 1 • Strong link to content presented at NAPAC: focus on cutting edge research but at a senior undergraduate / early graduate level • Plenary & invited speakers as lecturers

  13. NAPAC 2019 Tutorials: Option 2 • General, introductory tutorials covering fundamentals in key areas • Target intro students: help introduce to field • Topics (choose 1 each) different than overlap MC sessions

  14. Conclusions • Need to begin contacting instructors • Longer lead time, start soon as SPC endorses approach • Funding/Support • Do we have $ for instructor support or student travel ? • Sponsorship for students / catering for packed Sunday ? • Please let us know your thoughts ! • Which Short Course & Tutorial options • Ideas to increase attendance • Funding & Sponsorship Alysson Gold, SLAC vrielink@stanford.edu Steve Lund, MSU, USPAS lund@frib.msu.edu
