For the first time, the CERN Accelerator School (CAS) will be held in Lithuania! The CAS course “Introduction to Accelerator Physics” will be held in 2022. from September 18 to October 1 at Victoria Hotel Kaunas.
This Introductory CAS Course represents the core teaching of all CAS courses and also represents the ideal opportunity to be introduced into the field of particle accelerators. This course will be of interest to staff and students from laboratories and universities, as well as companies manufacturing accelerator equipment. The course will focus on various aspects of beam dynamics and will provide an introduction to the underlying accelerator systems. Key topics will be consolidated through a series of discussion sessions and tutorials, while topical seminars will complete the program.
The European Organization for Nuclear Research, collectively known as CERN, organizes four schools every year in a different country around the world. One school’s course lasts two weeks and attracts students from all over the world. This year it will be held in Kaunas.
CERN is a place where fundamental research is carried out in the field of particle physics. Here the aim is to find out what is happening in the Universe, what everything is made of and how it interacts with each other. Answering these questions requires tools, and an accelerator is one of those tools.
