Download or read book A Practical Introduction to Beam Physics and Particle Accelerators written by Santiago Bernal and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a brief exposition of the principles of beam physics and particle accelerators with emphasis on numerical examples employing readily available computer tools. Avoiding detailed derivations, we invite the reader to use general high-end languages such as Mathcad and Matlab, as well as specialized particle accelerator codes (e.g. MAD, WinAgile, Elegant, and others) to explore the principles presented. This approach allows the student to readily identify relevant design parameters and their scaling and easily adapt computer input files to other related situations.
