Annotation Proceedings of the Workshop held November 12-14, 2001 in Kyoto, Japan. Deals with recent topics in the field of ion beam cooling. The approach to hot ion beam cooling is also discussed, from the viewpoint of application of the beam cooling technique.

This book deals with recent topics in the field of ion beam cooling. Indications of one-dimensional ordering observed by electron beam cooling of highly charged heavy ion beams, and crystal beams observed by laser cooling at the RFQ storage ring, are presented together with theoretical and computational investigations on these phenomena. The approach to hot ion beam cooling is also discussed, from the viewpoint of application of the beam cooling technique.

This third open access volume of the handbook series deals with accelerator physics, design, technology and operations, as well as with beam optics, dynamics and diagnostics. A joint CERN-Springer initiative, the "Particle Physics Reference Library" provides revised and updated contributions based on previously published material in the well-known Landolt-Boernstein series on particle physics, accelerators and detectors (volumes 21A,B1,B2,C), which took stock of the field approximately one decade ago. Central to this new initiative is publication under full open access.

This volume covers the field of circular accelerators and related technology for the sub-GeV to multi-GeV energy region from the viewpoint of realization of high performance, i.e., performance and perspectives of operating multi-GeV accelerators, future projects in the multi-GeV energy region, lattice designs and beam dynamics, electron cooling and stochastic cooling, injection and extraction, beam diagnostics, superconducting and normal magnets, magnet power supplies, RF systems, and internal targets. The contributors include leading accelerator physicists from around the world.

This book contains the proceedings of the 1999 ICFA workshop on the physics of high brightness beams. The workshop took a snapshot in time of a fast moving, interdisciplinary field driven by advanced applications such as high gradient, high energy physics linear colliders, high gain free electron lasers, heavy ion fusion, and transmutation of nuclear materials. While the field of high brightness beam physics has traditionally been divided into disparate electron and heavy ion communities, the workshop brought the two types of researchers together, so that a sharing of insights and methods could be achieved. Thus, this book represents a unifying step in the development of the diverse fascinating discipline of high brightness beam physics, with its challenges rooted in collective, nonlinear particle motion and ultra-high electromagnetic energy density.
