CASE
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.
The main goals of CASE are:
• To train scientists and engineers with the aim of advancing the field of accelerator science;
• To develop a unique program of educational outreach that will provide broad access to a research accelerator; and,
• To attract Federal and industrial funding for an expanding interdisciplinary research and education program that utilizes accelerators.
The development of CASE capitalizes on resources at both institutions:
• BNL has a panoply of state of the art accelerators engaged in a broad spectrum of sciences, with many outstanding scientists already affiliated with and teaching at SBU; many of the SBU faculty in various fields already use the existing accelerator based facilities at BNL for their own research;
• SBU has a recently retired research accelerator – the Tandem Van de Graaff (TvDG) – whose control room has been renovated to become a modern | Physics Teaching Laboratory (PTL) that serves graduate, undergraduate students as well as K-12 teachers and students.
The Center will be headed by Distinguished Teaching Professor Thomas Hemmick http://skipper.physics.sunysb.edu/~hemmick of Stony Brook and Adjunct Professor Vladimir Litvinenko http://www.bnl.gov/bnlweb/pubaf/pr/PR_display.asp?prID=04-89 of BNL.
