Historical context

Main UK domestic accelerators:

NINA – Daresbury Lab: 5 GeV e- synchrotron (closed 1977)

SRS (2 GeV e- synchrotron) > 1980

Diamond – Rutherford Lab

NIMROD – Rutherford Lab: 7 GeV p synchrotron (closed 1978)

ISIS (800 MeV p synchrotron) > 1985

Historical context (contd.)

Closure of the domestic ‘particle physics’ accelerators caused a migration of UK accelerator scientists to overseas labs

(largely, but not entirely, to CERN)

In the 1980s and 1990s very few (if any!) PhDs were awarded in accelerator science

- subject had essentially disappeared at undergraduate level

New Era

2000: Particle physics community launched initiative for a revival of accelerator science in UK – science driven

2000-2003: small R&D efforts started (mainly) on linear collider and neutrino factory topics

2003: PPARC awarded significant funding for national consortia to work on LC and NuFac (incl. MICE)

2003: John Adams Institute and Cockcroft Institute were established by PPARC + universities to revitalise the national academic expertise in accelerator science

Other universities: IC, UCL, QMUL, Brunel, Birmingham, Dundee, Strathclyde, Warwick … also involved

Teaching (JAI example)

First year of PhD programme, courses in:

• Accelerator physics: Ted Wilson + Riccardo Bartolini

• Hamiltonian dynamics: Chris Warsop

• Specialist lectures in magnets, RF …

• Accelerator applications: (Diamond, ISIS, CERN, medical)

• Design study project as a team:

eg. Diamond booster, CLIC damping ring …

Additional comments

• 4 staff at RAL + Diamond doing part-time PhDs with JAI

• MSc: programme in accel. physics starting at RHUL

RF (Strathclyde, Lancaster)

• Bachelors degree:

now some introductory courses in accelerator physics (eg. Oxford ‘minor option’ 3rd year)

• For our next meeting I will try to give a more quantitative picture
