Class Information
- Class Syllabus and Information [last updated 06 Oct 2017]
- Textbook: An Introduction to the Physics of Particle Accelerators (2nd Ed), Mario Conte and William W. MacKay
- Textbook errata and supplementary notes [Waldo MacKay, last updated Jan 2013]
- Some handy computer tools, [Todd, Last updated Jan 2017]
Guidance on Final Presentations
- There is a Presentation Topic Doodle Poll -- please select your topic from that list.
- Final presentations are 15 minutes. Please stick to the time limit, as all presentations will still take a couple of hours.
- Your presentation should include some information that draws on what you have learned in class, and connects to the class material. It does not have to be very technical, but it should have a beginning, middle, and end of your narrative.
- It should include a list of references at the end that you used to assemble your slides.
- A reasonably good sample presentation is included here
