DESCRIPTION:SOLARIS National Synchrotron Radiation Centre is pleased to an
 nounce the National Centre SOLARIS – Basics of Accelerator Physics tak
 ing place from Tuesday\, 9th October to Tuesday\, 28th of January 2026 in 
 Kraków\, Poland. The lecture series "Basics of Accelerator Physics" offe
 rs a comprehensive overview of the principles\, design\, and applications 
 of particle accelerators. This course begins with a historical perspective
  on the development of accelerators and an overview of their main types.It
  delves into the fundamental aspects of beam dynamics\, covering both tran
 sverse and longitudinal dynamics\, as well as addressing linear imperfecti
 ons\, error sources\, and correction methods. A brief introduction to nonl
 inear dynamics is also provided.Interactive tutorials form an integral par
 t of the course\, enabling students to gain hands-on experience with MADX 
 and XSuite\, industry-standard tools for accelerator design and simulation
 . Students will engage in practical exercises\, such as building sequences
  for SPS-like and race-track machines\, matching tunes and chromaticities\
 , and applying correction techniques to magnet misalignments.Advanced topi
 cs include diagnostics and instrumentation\, beam cleaning and collimation
  techniques\, and the use of synchrotron light sources. The course also ex
 plores specialized applications of accelerators in medical and industrial 
 fields.The objectives of this lecture series are to impart a solid underst
 anding of the physics behind particle accelerators\, familiarize students 
 with the conventions and nomenclature used in the field\, and illustrate t
 he diverse applications of accelerators in science and industry. Through p
 ractical tutorials\, students will develop proficiency in using common com
 putational tools for accelerator design and gain the foundational knowledg
 e required to pursue a career in this dynamic field.The course is prepared
  and executed by specialist working for many years in the area of Accelera
 tor Physics\, its applications\, and methods development: Dr Marcin Pateck
 i from Warsaw University of Technology. Registration via Indico does not 
 guarantee admission to the course. The course will be hosted in an online
  form every Thursday between 08:30 and 10:00\, starting 8th of October\, 
 2025 and ending 28th of January\, 2026.\n\nhttps://indico.solaris.edu.pl/e
