MAD-X 2016 is a yearly course series given at CERN within the framework of the 2016 Technical Training Program on the MAD-X tool used around the world for designing, studying and simulating beam physics for particle accelerators. The lecturer is Laurent Deniau, from BE-APB, who leads the MAD team since 2011.
Two trainings will be delivered:
1. Methodical Accelerator Design MAD-X: Beginners
http://cern.ch/course/?169MAD01
Session: 21-22 November (half day: mornings)
2. Methodical Accelerator Design MAD-X: Intermediate
http://cern.ch/course/?169MAD02
Session: 05-06 December (half day: mornings)
Target audience: Designed for those needing to become familiar and to acquire some practical working methodology in particle accelerator design with MAD-X.
Pre-requirements: The course requires some prior knowledge of accelerators and beam physics (e.g. optic) as the theory is not detailed.
The series will be composed of 4 half day lectures, given in English with questions and answers also possible in French. Participation in all lectures is encouraged to allow people to gain maximum benefit from the course.
If you are interested in MAD-X - 2016, please discuss with your supervisor. Registration is required, participants must sign up via the links to the training catalogue given above, limited number of places available! Attendance will be recorded in the personal training records.
