Nb3Sn will be a workhorse superconductor for building high-field accelerator magnets (dipoles, quadrupoles) for future energy-frontier circular colliders, but the performance of the state-of-the-art Nb3Sn conductors is still insufficient for this application. In the past few years a new type of Nb3Sn conductor with artificial pinning centers (APC) based on the internal oxidation method has...
Development of an accelerator-based tunable THz source prototype for pump-probe experiments at the European XFEL is ongoing at the Photo Injector Test facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ). The proof-of-principle experiments on the THz SASE FEL are performed utilizing the LCLS-I undulator installed in the PITZ beamline. The first lasing at a center wavelength of 100 µm was observed in the summer...
In 1981 when I entered KEK, I did not know anything about accelerators and beam dynamics at all. Since then I have been helped by so many accelerator researchers in Japan and many countries. Here let me pick up a number of such people who could help me though my accelerator research. This prize is only made possible by those people.
