Snapshot of UK graduate training Philip Burrows John Adams Institute for Accelerator Science Oxford University Philip Burrows TIARA Kickoff Meeting, CERN, 23-24/2/11 1

Historical context Main UK domestic accelerators: NINA – Daresbury Lab: 5 GeV e- synchrotron (closed 1977)  SRS (2 GeV e- synchrotron) > 1980  Diamond – Rutherford Lab NIMROD – Rutherford Lab: 7 GeV p synchrotron (closed 1978)  ISIS (800 MeV p synchrotron) > 1985 Philip Burrows TIARA Kickoff Meeting, CERN, 23-24/2/11 2

Diamond: synchrotron source of X-rays Philip Burrows Oxford 19/12/103

Historical context Main UK domestic accelerators: NINA – Daresbury Lab: 5 GeV e- synchrotron (closed 1977)  SRS (2 GeV e- synchrotron) > 1980  Diamond – Rutherford Lab NIMROD – Rutherford Lab: 7 GeV p synchrotron (closed 1978)  ISIS (800 MeV p synchrotron) > 1985 Philip Burrows TIARA Kickoff Meeting, CERN, 23-24/2/11 4

ISIS: synchrotron source of neutrons Philip Burrows Oxford 19/12/105

Historical context (contd.) Closure of the domestic ‘particle physics’ accelerators caused a migration of UK accelerator scientists to overseas labs (largely, but not entirely, to CERN) In the 1980s and 1990s very few (if any!) PhDs were awarded in accelerator science - subject had essentially disappeared at undergraduate level Philip Burrows TIARA Kickoff Meeting, CERN, 23-24/2/11 6

New Era 2000: Particle physics community launched initiative for a revival of accelerator science in UK – science driven : small R&D efforts started (mainly) on linear collider and neutrino factory topics 2003: PPARC awarded significant funding for national consortia to work on LC and NuFac (incl. MICE) 2003: John Adams Institute and Cockcroft Institute were established by PPARC + universities to revitalise the national academic expertise in accelerator science Other universities: IC, UCL, QMUL, Brunel, Birmingham, Dundee, Strathclyde, Warwick … also involved Philip Burrows TIARA Kickoff Meeting, CERN, 23-24/2/11 7

Accelerator Institutes John Adams Institute: Oxford + Royal Holloway Cockcroft Institute: Lancaster, Liverpool + Manchester c. 25 faculty c. 50 PhD students Philip Burrows TIARA Kickoff Meeting, CERN, 23-24/2/11 8

9 UK PhD Students c. 12 students/year

Teaching (JAI example) First year of PhD programme, courses in: Accelerator physics: Ted Wilson + Riccardo Bartolini Hamiltonian dynamics: Chris Warsop Specialist lectures in magnets, RF … Accelerator applications: (Diamond, ISIS, CERN, medical) Design study project as a team: eg. Diamond booster, CLIC damping ring … Philip Burrows TIARA Kickoff Meeting, CERN, 23-24/2/11 10

Additional comments 4 staff at RAL + Diamond doing part-time PhDs with JAI MSc: programme in accel. physics starting at RHUL RF (Strathclyde, Lancaster) Bachelors degree: now some introductory courses in accelerator physics (eg. Oxford ‘minor option’ 3 rd year) For our next meeting I will try to give a more quantitative picture Philip Burrows TIARA Kickoff Meeting, CERN, 23-24/2/11 11
