Frontiers of Particle Beams; Observation, Diagnosis and Correction Proceedings of a Topical Course Held by the Joint US-CERN School on Particle Accelerators at Anacapri, Isola di Capri, Italy, October 20–26, 1988

This volume presents the latest ideas and developments in the world of beam diagnostics in particle accelerators and storage rings. It brings together papers by internationally recognized experts and by the younger scientists in the field. The lectures treat three main themes: - Phenomena used in be...
