Introductory remarks (1/2)! Particle accelerators are technological black boxes
producing either flux of particles impinging on a fixed target or debris of interactions emerging from colliding particles
In trying to clarify what the black boxes are one can list the technological problems describe the basic physics and mathematics involved
Most of the phenomena in a particle accelerator can be described with
➊ classical mechanics ➋ electro-dynamics ➌ special relativity ➍ quantum mechanic is required in a couple of cases just for leptons
(synchrotron radiation, pinch effect)!

Introductory remarks (2/2)!
However there are some complications: many non-linear phenomena many particles interacting to each other and with a complex surroundings the observables are averaged over large ensembles of particles
to handle high energy high intensity beams a complex technology is required
large scale vacuum high power microwaves superconducting technology very strong and precise magnets computer control large scale project management accelerator physics (beam dynamics)

Why accelerators ?!
Particle accelerators can produce charged particle beams of protons (and anti-protons) ions electrons (and positrons) muons neutrons other secondary particles
Common applications are Fundamental research (creation of new particles, observation of new
interactions) Ultra-precise Proton and Electron Microscopy High Brightness Photon Sources for Material Analysis and Modification,
Spectrometry, … . Ion Implanters, for Surface Modification and for Sterilization and
Polymerization Radiation Surgery and Therapy of Cancer

Ultra-precise microscopy! Probing particles are required for studies of the elementary
constituents The associated de Broglie wavelength λ of a probing particle
defines the minimum object size that can be resolved: microstructure can be identified if probing particle λ < dim (structures to be studied <10-15 m, visible light ~500 nm)
€
λ =hp
= h × cE
with h = 4 × 10−15
eVs (Plank constant)p = momentum, E = energy
⎧ ⎨ ⎩
Resolving Smaller Objects Requires Higher Momentum Probe Particles
Example of probe wavelength electrons with p = 1 keV/c ⇒ λ = 4×10-12 m photons with E = 1 keV ⇒ λ = h×c/E ~ 1.2 x 10-9 m. electrons have ~ 300 times better resolution than
photons (electron-microscopy !)
Typical microscopic sizes Atom 10-10 m Nucleus 10-14 m Proton 10-15 m Quark 10-19 m

Microscopic scale of λ!
Quarks and leptons can be sensed down to distances of 10-19 meters by means of particles from giant accelerators with particle energies of > 1000 GeV
The living cell is commonly studied by means of an optical microscope which receives scattered photons of visible light.
living cell are investigated by optical microscopes objects of the atomic dimension by electron microscopes nucleus and sub-nuclear objects by particle accelerators
Sub-micron objects such as the constituents of a living cell are often investigated in electron microscopes where electrons, accelerated typically to a few hundred kilovolts, are used to hit the objects and scatter from them

Why accelerators: need to produce under controlled conditions HIGH INTENSITY, at a CHOSEN ENERGY particle beams of GIVEN PARTICLE SPECIES to do an EXPERIMENT
An experiment consist of colliding particles either onto a fixed target or with another particle beam.
The cosmo is already doing this with different mechanisms: while I am speaking about 66 109 particles/cm2/s are traversing your body, with this spectrum before being filtered by the atmosphere.
Why particle accelerators in fundamental reserch?
The universe is able to accelerate particles up to 106 MeV protons,…but in uncontrolled conditions

Particles from accelerators colliding to each other or with target particles may lead to the creation of new matter
New mass is created from the collision energy according to the formula E=mc2
It is thus by conversion to mass of excess kinetic energy in a collision that particles, antiparticles and exotic nuclei can be created.
Creating matter!

Matter constituent and interaction!In an accelerator for fundamental physics discovery we need:
enough energy to produce directly the different particles enough intensity (i.e. particle interaction) to produce enough particles
In the last 100 year, the history of accelerator physics is a continuous fight to get energy and intensity to study known and
unknown particles and their interactions

…some accomplishments
Technological development required for each step different particle species used in the different colliders:
electron-positrons and hadron colliders (either p-pbar as Tevratron, or p-p as LHC)

The proper particle for the proper goal
Pros: with a single energy possible to scan different processes at different energies. Discovery machine (LHC)
Cons: the energy available for the collision is lower than the accelerator energy, e.g. reduced collision energy
Electrons and positrons are (so far) point like particles: no internal structure
The energy of the collider is totally transferred into the collision ECM= Eb1+ Eb2= 2×Eb (= 200 GeV in LEP)
Protons (and antiprotons) are formed by quarks (uud) kept together by gluons
The energy of each beam is carried by the proton constituents, and it is not the entire proton which collides, but one of his constituents ECM < 2×Eb (≈ 1 TeV in LHC)
Pros: the energy can be precisely tuned to scan for example, a mass region. Precision measurement (LEP)
Cons: above a certain energy is no more convenient to use electron because of too high synchrotron radiation

reminder
The accelerators are basic tools for physics discovery: new ideas and technological breakthrough sustained an impressive exponential progress of their performance for almost a century
Many different type of accelerator are used for particle and nuclear physics research, however the large majority of the existing accelerators is used for a multitude of practical applications
The synchrotrons are the backbone of accelerator complex, however old ideas and concepts are still revisited and upgraded to achieve more demanding requirements
Colliders are the master tool in the quest of the highest energy, whilst fixed target operation allow reaching the highest rates
Hadron and lepton colliders play complementary roles for discovery and high-resolution investigations

Surface source
Volume source
Penning source Magnetron source Ion sources: ◆ positive ions sources
■ formed from electron bombardment of a gas ■ extracted from the resulting plasma:
species ranging from H to U (multiply charged)
◆ negative ion sources: principal interest is in H-, for charge exchange injection ■ surface sources: in a plasma, H picks up electrons from an activated surface ■ volume sources: electron attachment or recombination in H plasma ■ polarized ion sources: e.g., optically pumped source -> some penalty in intensity,
relatively high (> 65 %) polarization

Electron sources ◆ electron production mechanism:
■ thermo ionic emission (pulse duration controlled by a pulsed grid) ■ photocathode irradiation by pulsed laser (laser pulse width
determines the pulse duration) ◆ initial acceleration methods
■ DC HV guns -> 50-500 keV acceleration ■ RF guns: cathode forms one wall of the RF cavity
-> rapid acceleration to > 10 MeV in a few cells -> mitigates space charge effects, -> makes for low emittance
