Summer 2021 USPAS Session

Courses run in parallel so students may take one two-week full course OR two one-week half courses. Each two-week course is eligible for 3 units of credit from Stony Brook University

June 14-25, 2021

• Fundamentals of Accelerator Physics and Technology with Simulations and Measurements Lab (undergrad level)
  Instructors: Simon C. Leemann, Fernando Sannibale, Stefano DeSantis and Michael Betz, Lawrence Berkeley National Lab


• Accelerator Physics
  Instructors: Steven Lund, Michigan State University and USPAS; Yue Hao, Michigan State University; Yichao Jing, Brookhaven National Lab; Jonathan Wong, Oak Ridge National Lab


• Measurement and Control of Charged Particle Beams
