Unifying Physics of Accelerators, Lasers and Plasma (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781032352503)

Unifying Physics of Accelerators, Lasers and Plasma introduces the physics of accelerators, lasers and plasma in tandem with the industrial methodology of inventiveness, a technique that teaches that similar problems and solutions appear again and again in seemingly dissimilar disciplines. This unique approach builds bridges and enhances connections between the three aforementioned areas of physics that are essential for developing the next generation of accelerators. A Breakthrough by Design approach, introduced in the book as an amalgam of TRIZ inventive principles and laws of technical system evolution with the art of back-of-the-envelope estimations, via numerous examples and exercises discussed in the solution manual, will make you destined to invent.

Unifying Physics of Accelerators, Lasers and Plasma outlines a path from idea to practical implementation of scientific and technological innovation. This second edition has been updated throughout, with new content on superconducting technology, energy recovery, polarization, various topics of advanced technology, etc., making it relevant for the Electron-Ion Collider project, as well as for advanced lights sources, including Free Electron Lasers with energy recovery.

The book is suitable for students at the senior undergraduate and graduate levels, as well as for scientists and engineers interested in enhancing their abilities to work successfully on the development of the next generation of facilities, devices and scientific instruments manufactured from the synergy of accelerators, lasers and plasma.

Key Features:

• Introduces the physics of accelerators, lasers, and plasma in tandem with the industrial methodology of inventiveness.
• Outlines a path from idea to practical implementation of scientific and technological innovation.
• Contains more than 380 illustrations and numerous end-of-chapter exercises.

Solutions manual is included into the book. The ebook is published in full colour.

Boasting more than 380 illustrations, this highly visual text:

• Employs TRIZ to amalgamate and link different areas of science
• Avoids heavy mathematics, using back-of-the-envelope calculations to convey key principles
• Introduces the Innovation by Design approach based an amalgam of TRIZ inventive principles and laws of technical system evolution with the art of back-of-the-envelope estimations - developing and applying this methodology, you will be destined to invent
• Includes updated materials for all eleven chapters of the first edition, e.g., the FEL invention path analysis, etc.
• The second edition includes new chapters: Beam Cooling and Final Focusing, Beam Stability and Energy Recovery, Advanced Technologies
• The new chapters add topics such as superconducting magnets and accelerating cavities, polarized beams, energy recovery - themes relevant for new projects such as Electron-Ion Collider, or Free Electron Laser based on energy recovery for science or industry
• The second edition also includes a new chapter with illustrations of 40 inventive principles of TRIZ based on the areas of accelerator, laser and plasma technology
• Every chapter includes invention case studies, often making important connections to adjacent areas of technologies, illustrated by the case of EUV light generation invention for semiconductor lithography, etc.
• Includes end-of-chapter exercises focusing on physics and on applications of the inventiveness method, on reinventing technical systems and on practicing back-of-the-envelope estimations; and also includes mini-projects, suitable for exercises by teams of students
