BES Light Sources Beam Stability Workshop

DATE: November 1, 2018  
PLACE: Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, 1 Cyclotron Road, Bldg. 54, Room 130 (Perseverance Hall)

WELCOME!

The 1st BES Light Sources Beam Stability Workshop will be hosted by the Advanced Light Source (ALS) at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory on November 1, 2018.

The goal of the Workshop to bring together engineers, accelerator and beamline scientists in order to discuss most vexing beam stability challenges in their respective facilities. The Workshop will encompass both electron and photon stability issues including environmental contributions to stability such as temperature drifts, vibrations, etc. The forward-looking goal is to integrate electron and photon stability and, for the experiments that require a high degree of coherence and/or nanosized focused beam, to develop methodology that will deliver high quality, stable beam into the experimental station.
