Program Sunday – Student poster session, reception Mon, Tue, Thu – Morning and afternoon presentations – 1 hour of oral posters, 5 min. each – 2 hours poster session Wed – Morning presentations – Outing to Jerusalem Fri – Morning presentations

Student poster session

“On-line Dispersion-free Steering for the Main Linac of CLIC” by Jürgen “Specifications of the Distributed Timing System for the CLIC Main Linac” by Alexander Student poster session winner: “First Demonstration of Optical Frequency Shot-noise Suppression in Relativistic Electron-beams” by A.Nause (University of Tel-Aviv) – collective Coulomb interaction between the electrons of a cold intense beam during beam drift – beam charge homogenizes due to the collective interaction, and its distribution becomes sub-Poissonian – measure sub-linear growth as a function of current of the optical transition radiation
