Nanobeam 2008 workshop
May 25-30, 2008, Budker INP, Novosibirsk, Russia
FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT
Dear Colleague,
Recently high quality beams with nanometer and sub-nanometer scale emittance and fewnanocoulomb charge per bunch became available. It opens great prospects for different
applications. The first and the most ambitious is the linear collider. The numerous lower-scale
projects cover the wide field from advanced x-ray sources to heavy-ion therapy. New challenges
on beam quality, beam-optical systems, diagnostics, feedback, and stabilization of beam line
components are under intensive investigation now. From the other hand, achievements of
accelerator technology are used in nanoscience and nanotechnology, and number of such
applications increases from year to year. Two previous Nanobeam workshops took place at
Lausanne (Switzerland) in 2002 and at Uji (Japan) in 2005.
The Nanobeam 2008 workshop is organized by the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics.
The scientific interests of this institution lie in the field of advanced accelerator techniques as
round beam collider, free electron lasers and synchrotron radiation x-ray sources, energy
recovery devices, electron coolers, linear colliders, advanced beam sources, etc. It will be
reflected in the scientific program of the workshop, which will focus not only on the linear
collider issues, but on the other advanced accelerator applications also.
The Nanobeam 2008 will be submitted to ICFA to become one of the ICFA Advanced
Beam Dynamics Workshops.
Nanobeam 2008 will be held from 25 to 30 of May, 2008. The Nanobeam 2008 workshop
site is the Novosibirsk scientific center (Akademgorodok). Registration will be open in
December 2007. For detailed information on the workshop please consult the workshop website
