HG2006 Workshop on High-Gradient Radio Frequency



Meeting to be held at CERN on 25-27 September 2006 in Room 40/S2-B01 (Building 40).

The objective of the workshop is to bring the high-gradient RF community together to present and discuss recent theoretical and experimental developments. Significant progress has recently been made in understanding the basic physics of rf breakdown and developing techniques for achieving higher gradients. This workshop should contribute to maintaining these efforts and to promoting contacts and collaboration.

The scientific programme will be organized in half day sessions dedicated to:

  • High-gradient rf experimental results
  • Theory and computation
  • High-gradient technology, materials and processing
  • Specialized experiments on related high-gradient or high-power phenomenon like dc discharge and pulsed surface heating
  • Reports from collaborations and projects.

Each session will consist of selected presentations followed by a dedicated discussion.
