项目摘要

The overall objective of this CAREER proposal is to integrate beam physics research at Cornell University's Laboratory of Elementary Particle Physics (LEPP) with undergraduate research, education, and outreach in the Physics Department at Alfred University. The research objective is to expand our knowledge of the interrelationship between accelerator beam dynamics and the performance of storage rings, specifically the Cornell Electron-Positron Storage Ring (CESR). This novel approach to accelerator research will encompass remote operation of sophisticated beam diagnostic equipment to measure the beam dynamics and correlate with important accelerator parameters. The objectives of the outreach and educational components of this project are to: i) provide undergraduate students with the opportunity to work on a research project at a large user facility with sophisticated state-of-the-art equipment that will provide them with valuable research skills in experimental physics and reinforce their knowledge of classical and modern physics; ii) develop a laboratory for light optics and fast imaging systems whose equipment can be used at Cornell, Alfred or potentially at other universities; and iii) provide a location for high school students to learn about accelerators as an outreach to the local community and a recruiting tool for prospective physics majors at Alfred University.

该职业提案的总体目标是将康奈尔大学基本粒子物理实验室 (LEPP) 的束流物理研究与阿尔弗雷德大学物理系的本科生研究、教育和推广相结合。研究目标是扩展我们对加速器束动力学与存储环（特别是康奈尔电子正电子存储环（CESR））性能之间相互关系的了解。这种加速器研究的新颖方法将包括复杂的束流诊断设备的远程操作，以测量束流动力学并与重要的加速器参数相关联。该项目的外展和教育部分的目标是： i) 为本科生提供在大型用户设施中开展研究项目的机会，该设施拥有先进的先进设备，这将为他们提供有价值的研究实验物理技能并强化经典和现代物理知识； ii) 开发一个光学光学和快速成像系统实验室，其设备可在康奈尔大学、阿尔弗雷德大学或其他大学使用； iii) 为高中生提供一个了解加速器的场所，作为对当地社区的宣传和阿尔弗雷德大学未来物理专业的招生工具。
