News about Tiara

The TIARA preparatory phase has been extended for one year, until December 31st 2014.

Upgrade of the Swiss Light Source for R&D on ultralow vertical emittance

A high resolution beam size monitor has been commissioned at the SLS for verification of vertical emittance values below 1 pm.

RF drive system for MICE installed at the ICTF

Ionisation cooling is required to reduce the emittance of a muon beam rapidly for application in future accelerators for neutrino factories and muon colliders.

Concluding the TIARA Preparatory Phase

Almost 3 years since the TIARA Kickoff meeting, the TIARA participants met in Daresbury to review the progress within the Work Packages (WPs) and finalise the last deliverables.

E-learning: a new training opportunity for European accelerator science

Currently around 500 students each year commence master’s and PhD courses related to accelerator science and technology.

A versatile test cryostat for low beta superconducting cavities

In WP9 of the TIARA-PP project, the IPN Orsay team has raised the challenge of designing a versatile test cryostat capable to host almost all type of fully-equipped SC cavities, including the wide range of low beta structures.

Demonstration of Rf drive system MICE achieved

Ionisation cooling is required to reduce the emittance of a muon beam rapidly for application in future accelerators for neutrino factories and muon colliders.
