Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are newly discovered radio transient sources. Their high dispersion measures indicate an extragalactic origin. But due to the lack of observational data in other wavelengths, their progenitors still remain unclear.…
Hadron beams develop intensity-dependent transverse-longitudinal correlations within radio-frequency quadrupole (RFQ) accelerating structures. These correlations are only visible in six-dimensional phase space and are destroyed by…
At the Fermilab Booster, and many other proton facili-ties, an intense proton beam is accumulated by multi-turn injection of an H- beam through a stripping foil. The circu-lating beam scatters off the injection foil and large-angle Coulomb…
Fast external noise, which gives fluctuation into the beam orbit, is discussed in connection with beam-beam effects. Phase noise from crab cavities and detection devices (position monitor) and kicker noise from the bunch by bunch feedback…

Variations in the Faraday rotation measure (RM) of repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) provide critical diagnostics of the dynamically evolving magneto-ionic environments surrounding their progenitors. Sudden, transient ``RM flares'' can…

New high current accelerator facilities like proposed for HIDIF or ESS require a beam with a high brilliance. These beams can not be produced by a single pass rf-linac. The increase in brightness in such a driver linac is done by several…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond duration transients observed in the radio band, with their origin and radiation mechanism remaining unclear to date. Growing evidence indicates that at least some FRBs originate from magnetars and…
