Xie Jialin Prize
The ACFA Xie Jialin Prize for exceptional work in the accelerator field has been given to Hitoshi Tanaka, deputy director of RIKEN SPring-8 Center, for his many contributions to linear and circular accelerator-based photon sources. Examples of his works include: girder-based magnet alignment suppressing COD sensitivity against magnet mis-alignment; achievement of the...
Nishikawa Tetsuji Prize
Nishikawa Tetsuji Prize for his significant contribution to high performance high charge state ECR ion source development, especially in the domain of the next generation ECR ion source development, superconducting ECR ion source high performance operation and key technologies development.
Hogil Kim Prize
Riccardo Pompili got his PhD in Physics in 2013 at the University of Rome “Tor Vergata” with a thesis related to the development of an Electro-Optical Sampling diagnostics conceived for beamdriven plasma wakefield accelerators. For his PhD thesis he was awarded in 2014 by the “Young Scientist Prize” of the Italian Synchrotron Light Society. Currently he is the scientific...
Mark Oliphant Prize
Adam’s work focuses on the application of Fixed Field Accelerator technologies to hadron therapy, investigating novel techniques for beam extraction, transport, and delivery. He completed the initial design study for a large energy acceptance beamline technology demonstrator as part of the ‘TURBO’ project at Melbourne University, looking at both beam optics and magnet...
