Explores quantum mechanics fundamentals, including wave mechanics, Schrödinger equation, and Dirac equation, along with applications in decay rates and particle accelerators.
Explores accelerator applications in society, from science to medicine, and reflects on the role of accelerators in driving theoretical understanding and scientific discovery.
Introduces Quantum Field Theory as the way to reconcile Quantum Mechanics with Relativity, emphasizing the need for a local field due to the impossibility of instantaneous interactions at a distance.
Explores circular accelerators, colliders, luminosity calculation, beam-beam forces, different collisions, and the LHC luminosity reach, emphasizing the effects of beam-beam interactions.
Explores plasma accelerators, focusing on high accelerating fields using plasma wakes, experimental results, and challenges in achieving high beam quality.
