Accelerator Physics – serie

This textbook explains the basic principles of high-energy crystal channeling physics and introduces a non-specialist into the bent-crystal applications at accelerators. It covers topics such as charged particle channeling in straight and bent crystals, different mechanisms of particle trap into channeling mode, theory of dechanneling, computer simulations, and effects of crystal lattice distortions. It deals with crystal bending methods, and experimental schemes are discussed in detail and compared to the theory. The second half of the text considers the crystal applications: beam extraction, splitting, focusing, diagnostics etc.

This BriefBook is a much extended glossary or a much condensed handbook, depending on the way one looks at it. In encyclopedic format, it covers subjects in statistics, computing, analysis, and related fields, resulting in a book that is both an introduction and a reference for scientists and engineers, especially experimental physicists dealing with data analysis.

This BriefBook is a much extended glossary or a much condensed handbook, depending on the way one looks at it. It deals with detectors in particle and nuclear physics experiments. The authors describe, in encyclopedic format, the physics, the application, and the analysis of data from these detectors. Ample reference is made to the published literature. An introduction for newcomers, a reference for scientists.

This monograph describes the basic physics of high-energy crystal channeling and introduces the nonspecialist to the application of bent-crystals at accelerators. It covers topics such as charged particle channeling in straight and bent crystals, particle trapping into the channeling mode, the effects of crystal lattice distortions, and computer simulations. It also deals with crystal bending methods and discusses experimental schemes and theoretical results. Particular consideration is given to the projects for crystal use at future large hadron colliders. The topics are treated in a textbook style with many figures. The book addresses students as well as the working physicists in high-energy physics laboratories.
