Institute for Science and Technology of Accelerating Systems

Most particle accelerators use radio-frequency cavity systems to provide energy to the particle beam or, in some cases, to manipulate the beam properties. Operation at high fields and high beam currents poses many challenges. The Institute for Science and Technology of Accelerating Systems (BE-IAS) researches, designs, constructs and operates novel cavity systems for modern accelerators. These involve not only the cavities themselves, the optimization of their design or the materials they are made of, but all the auxiliary systems that are essential for operation in the accelerator. Frequently, modern accelerators are based on superconducting radio-frequency technology (SRF) systems and the institute R&D focuses to a large extent on these.
