The Advanced Proton Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration Experiment (AWAKE) aims at studying plasma wakefield generation and electron acceleration driven by proton bunches. It is a proof-of-principle R&D experiment at CERN and the world's first proton driv ...
The operation of Nb–Ti superconducting magnets in He II relies on superfluidity to overcome the severe thermal barrier represented by the cable electrical insulation. In wrapped cable insulations, like those used for the main magnets of the Large Hadron Co ...
It is shown that a correlation inequality of statistical mechanics can be applied to linear low-density parity-check codes. Thanks to this tool we prove that, under a natural assumption, the exponential growth rate of regular low-density parity-check (LDPC ...

High energy accelerators and storage rings are designed to collide charged particle beams and study their collision products. The production rate of the collision products has to be maximized in order to reduce the statistical uncertainty of the produced e ...
A new concept of polyimide electrical insulation for superconducting cables of accelerator magnets was developed in the last years. Its enhanced He II permeability allows a significant improvement of the heat extraction from the coil. This cable insulation ...
Accelerators can be used for hadrontherapy, a cancer treatment in which the patient is irradiated with hadron beams. For this purpose, the Italian foundation TERA proposes the “cyclinac”, composed of a high-frequency linac which boosts the hadrons accelera ...
The energy ramp and the betatron squeeze at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are particularly critical oper- ational phases that involve the manipulation of beams well above the safe limit for damage of accelerator components. In particular, the squeez ...
A charged particle beam travelling at the speed of light produces large electromagnetic wake fields which, through interactions with its surroundings, act back on the particles in the beam. This coupled system may become unstable, resulting in a deteriorat ...
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN near Geneva is an accelerator designed to collide protons at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 14 TeV. It is operational since November 2009 and has delivered collisions up to an energy of √s = 7 TeV in 2010. The LHCb ...
The Ironless Inductive Position Sensor (I2PS) is an air-cored displacement sensor which has been conceived to be totally immune to external DC/slowly-varying magnetic fields. It can thus be used as a valid alternative to Linear Variable Differential Transf ...
