Research Highlights:

 

Beam Dynamics and Lattice Design
Study of beam transport in recirculating superconducting linacs, beam optics and lattice design for transport lines at CEBAF, development of an on-line beam optics analysis via differential orbit measurement, lattice design of a wide aperture recirculating linac muon accelerator for future neutrino factory.
Recirculating Linacs for Neutrino Factory

Development of a conceptual lattice design for a 20-50 GeV muon accelerator based on recirculating SC linacs. Feasibility studies of acceleration and transport of a large phase-space of short-lived muons implemented in a proof-of-principle lattice for a recirculating linac accelerator based on 200 MHz. Appropriate lattice design choices combined with a sextupole correction to suppress chromatic effects are being explored to optimize beam transport in the proposed muon accelerator complex (straight linac and multi pass recirculating linac).



Novel Cooling and Acceleration Schemes, Crystal Channeling

Concept of a crystal micronundulator based on channeling of relativistic particles through a strain modulated superlattice, E763 demonstration experiment at TRIUMF. High gradient (GeV/m) acceleration scheme based on laser pumping of a relativistic beam transversely excited by a modulated crystal channel. High gradient inverse Cherenkov acceleration-demonstration experiment at BNL.

 

Coherent Instabilities
Analytic study of multi-bunch potential well distortion effects for a partially filled ring. Numerical simulation of the coupled bunch instability (longitudinal phase-space tracking). Nonperturbative analysis of the negative mas instability, Analytic studies of chromatic effects on the head-tail instability, Quasi-nonlinear Vlasov equation modeling of the saturation of collective instabilities and energy overshoot.
