The mathematical transient Finite Element Analysis (FEA) model is based on a multi-physics scheme that includes an adaptive time step to solve heat balance and electric equations simultaneously. In addition, quench development and powering strategy will be validated using the well-established STEAM-LEDET lumped element code that is currently used for predictive modeling of inductively coupled superconducting coils in, for example, LHC Collider (in collaboration with BNL). The internship is an excellent chance to jump-start a career in applied physics.

Center for Accelerator Science and Education

NEW: We proudly offer opportunities in partaking the prestigious Ernest Courant traineeship through CASE and Stony Brook University. Details can be found here and video about ACT can be founds at https://vimeo.com/818731157/b27bad0273

Article about the traineeship: https://news.stonybrook.edu/university/developing-the-next-generation-of-particle-accelerator-talent/

  • News: Dr. Irina Petrushina won prestigious NY Academy of Sciences Blavatnik Award [1]. SBU News story is at [2] and Blavatnik Award story is at [3] She is also recipient of 2020 RHIC/AGS Thesis Award for her PhD thesis "The Chilling Recount of an Unexpected Discovery: First Observations of the Plasma-Cascade Instability in the Coherent Electron Cooling Experiment" "2020 RHIC/AGS Thesis Award" .

    • The Center for Accelerator Science and Education (CASE) will pursue cutting edge accelerator science and R&D, training of next generation accelerator scientists - graduate and post doctoral – through courses, laboratory and experiments on accelerators. Undergraduate opportunities will play a significant goal of attracting students to the graduate program through introduction to accelerator courses, accelerator laboratory work and summer research opportunities at BNL. The proposed educational program will start with a short term abbreviated educational program of undergraduate, graduate and R&D that will evolve over time.

  • CASE (SBU & BNL), in collaboration with Cornell University and Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), starting Ernest Courant Traineeship in Accelerator Science & Engineering funded by High Energy Physics office of the US Department of Energy ECTA&E. Students in the traineeship program who complete the necessary courses (12 or more credits in accelerator science and engineering) will be issued a Certificate in Accelerator Science and Engineering. This traineeship is available for all students independent of citizenship but funds provided by this DoE award only can be used to provide two years of full support for students who are US citizens or US permanent residents. If you are interested in joining this traineeship contact one of SBU professors listed below: V.N Litvinenko, T. Hemmick, N. Vafaei-Najafabadi (Department of Physics and Astronomy), J.
