Center for Accelerator Science and Education

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.

Goals

The main goals of CASE are:

  • To train scientists and engineers with the aim of advancing the field of accelerator science;

Courses taught by CASE Faculty

  • 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 Collaboration

Research Opportunities

CASE faculty are involved in many exciting projects. Please contact us for more information.

  1. ILC is just starting a 2 year very detailed investigation on the electron cloud phenomena using the CESR ring at Cornell. This is a unique opportunity. Anyone interested should contact:
    Contact: Mike Harrison <Harrison@bnl.gov>
  2. Students needed to help in developing simulation codes in two areas:
    1. spin dynamics and tracking
    2. dynamics of high intensity beams: space charge,impedances, beam-beam, etc
      Contact: Alfredo U Luccio <Luccio@bnl.gov>
  3. We are looking for students to work on the Stony Brook Tandem Van de Graff accelerator to:
    1. Finish implementing the new control system.
    2. Implement new experiments for the Stony Brook Graduate Laboratory.

    These are ideal MSI minor projects. Contact: Thomas K Hemmick <Thomas.Hemmick@stonybrook.edu>


Past Projects

9MV FN-8 Tandem Van de Graaff
First on its own and then as an injector to the Superconducting Heavy Ion Linac, FN-8 was used for Nuclear Physics research at Stony Brook for 40 years.



Pb/Sn plated Split Loop Resonator

The Stony Brook Superconducting Heavy Ion Linac was commissioned in 1983 and used until 2007. Superconducting RF research at Stony Brook led to the development of the SQWR, the SRFQ and the CPM based SRF controller, among other achievements.
