Challenges in Beam Instrumentation and Diagnostics

Dr. Thibaut Lefevre of CERN will be giving the next joint UK accelerator seminar on Thursday 2nd of December at 16:15. The talk will be given on Zoom, details of which can be found on the seminar series Indico page.

CERN operates a large accelerator complex that serves a diverse experimental physics programme. The beam instrumentation group designs, builds and maintains all the instruments that characterise the beam properties across the whole complex. This talk will guide you through a selection of the most recent devices that are used daily by the operators to tune the beams. It will also present the main R&D activities carried out in our group to be able to meet the challenging needs of CERN's future projects.
