A proton-driven Muon Collider, in the configuration that has resulted from the efforts of the International Muon Collider Collaboration (IMCC), poses multiple and exceptional magnet system challenges. Addressing these challenges will…
The demand and the potential for automation in the construction sector is unmatched, particularly for increasing environmental sustainability, improving worker safety and reducing labor shortages. We have developed an autonomous walking…
We designed and validated a novel simulator for efficient development of multi-robot marine missions. To accelerate development of cooperative behaviors, the simulator models the robots' operating conditions with moderately high fidelity…
Education is a major force for economic and social wellbeing. Despite high aspirations, education at all levels can be expensive and ineffective. Three Grand Challenges are identified: (1) enable people to learn orders of magnitude more…
In light of its many benefits, home automation systems are one of the subjects that are becoming ever more prevalent. The term "home automation" describes the remote monitoring and management of household equipment. The Internet and its…
Planetary exploration missions require robust locomotion systems capable of operating in extreme environments over extended periods. This paper presents the DISTANT (Distant Transmission and Steering Systems) design, a novel approach for…
Quantum computing has the potential to revolutionize multiple fields by solving complex problems that can not be solved in reasonable time with current classical computers. Nevertheless, the development of quantum computers is still in its…
This paper presents a novel control protocol for robust distance-based formation control with prescribed performance in which agents are subjected to unknown external disturbances. Connectivity maintenance and collision avoidance among…
This paper describes the construction and operational status of an accelerator test facility for Project X. The purpose of this facility is for Project X component development activities that benefit from beam tests and any development…
In this paper we will provide an overview of the hadron colliders built to date and the design and operational challenges that each of these machines has faced. Many of these are inherent to the ongoing effort to optimise the instantaneous…
There is a great body of work in the areas of tele-assistance/tele-collaboration offering novel and effective ways to improve collaboration between personnel located at a remote mine site and off-site personnel located in major metropolitan…
Crystal channeling technology has offered various opportunities in accelerator community with a viability of ultrahigh gradient (TV/m) acceleration for future HEP collider in Energy Frontier. The major challenge of the channeling…
Accelerator radio frequency (RF) technology has been and remains critical for modern high energy physics (HEP) experiments based on particle accelerators. Tremendous progress in advancing this technology has been achieved over the past…
Recent researches on robotics have shown significant improvement, spanning from algorithms, mechanics to hardware architectures. Robotics, including manipulators, legged robots, drones, and autonomous vehicles, are now widely applied in…
Studies in astroparticle physics are actively developed all over the world. It is clear that the effectiveness of the work depends strongly on the information exchange rate and on the overall coordination of this activity. An international…
Nowadays many telescopes around the world are automated and some networks of robotic telescopes are active or planned as shown by the lists we draw up. Such equipment could be used for the training of students and for science in the…
Computer modeling is essential to research on Advanced Accelerator Concepts (AAC), as well as to their design and operation. This paper summarizes the current status and future needs of AAC systems and reports on several key aspects of (i)…
Robotic fleets can be extremely efficient when working concurrently and collaboratively, e.g., for delivery, surveillance, search and rescue. However, it can be demanding or even impractical for an operator to directly control each robot.…
This recounting of the history of the last three-and-a-half decades of advanced accelerator concepts is offered from a decidedly parochial point of view -- that of the career of the author, Prof. James Rosenzweig of the UCLA Dept. of…
EDFA, as part of the Power Plant Physics and Technology programme, has been working on the pre-conceptual design of a Demonstration Power Plant (DEMO). As part of this programme, a review of the remote maintenance strategy considered…
