Anatoli Petrovich Bugorski (Russian: Анатолий Петрович Бугорский; born 25 June 1942) is a Russian retired particle physicist. He is known for surviving a radiation accident in 1978, when a high-energy proton beam from a particle accelerator passed through his head. [1] [2]
A fixed-target experiment in particle physics is an experiment in which a beam of accelerated particles is collided with a stationary target. The moving beam (also known as a projectile) consists of charged particles such as electrons or protons and is accelerated to relativistic speed. The fixed target can be a solid block or a liquid or a ...
[17] [18] [19] With this among other improvements, throughout the 1990s, CESR had the highest luminosity of any colliding-beam system in the world and became valuable as a synchrotron light source [13] The pretzel orbits scheme was subsequently embraced and successfully incorporated into the Tevatron particle accelerator at Fermilab and the ...
One dimensional position-momentum plot, showing the beam ellipse described in terms of the Courant–Snyder parameters. In accelerator physics, the Courant–Snyder parameters (frequently referred to as Twiss parameters or CS parameters) are a set of quantities used to describe the distribution of positions and velocities of the particles in a beam.

A second beam splitter: identical to the initial one. This beam splitter is positioned opposite the first, at the intersection between the lower path and upper path (after they have been redirected by the ordinary mirrors), at the exit of the box. A pair of photon detectors: located outside the box, they are aligned with the second beam-splitter.
A particle beam is a stream of charged or neutral particles.In particle accelerators, these particles can move with a velocity close to the speed of light. [1] There is a difference between the creation and control of charged particle beams and neutral particle beams, as only the first type can be manipulated to a sufficient extent by devices based on electromagnetism.

James Benjamin Rosenzweig is a experimental plasma physicist and a distinguished professor at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). [1] In the field of plasma wakefield acceleration, he is regarded as the father of the non-linear "blowout" interaction regime, where a laser beam, when fired into a plasma at intense levels, expels electrons from the plasma and creates a spherical ...
