Introduction to Beam Instrumentation and Diagnostics

Accelerator Physics 2016-01-20 v1

Abstract

These lectures aim to describe instruments and methods used for measuring beam parameters in particle accelerators. Emphasis will be given to new detection and analysis techniques in each field of accelerator instrumentation. A clear distinction is made between 'instrumentation', the design and construction of the instruments themselves, and 'diagnostics', the use of the data from these instruments for running and improving the performance of the accelerator.
