Conveners
Louis Costrell Awards Session
- Sarah Cousineau (Oak Ridge National Laboratory)
Winner will talk about his career highlights and the projects he has been involved in.
Speaker will share thoughts, using examples from my own research, about why accelerator theory is important and what helps to make inventions.
Attosecond x-ray free-electron lasers (XFEL) are the brightest source of isolated sub-fs pulses, with a peak brightness that surpasses table-top high-harmonic generation sources by seven orders of magnitude. In my talk I will discuss the development of attosecond x-ray science capabilities at the Linac Coherent Light Source: from the first demonstration of isolated attosecond pulses to the...
Nonlinear lattice optimization and correction become increasingly important as storage ring light sources continue to push towards ultra-low emittances. An advanced algorithm based on machine learning technique, called multi-generation Gaussian process optimizer (MG-GPO), was applied to find optimal nonlinear lattice solutions, and was demonstrated to outperform traditional algorithms. It was...
