Particle Accelerator Physics I: Basic Principles and Linear Beam Dynamics

Particle Accelerator Physics I is an introduction to the field of high-energy particle accelerator physics and particle-beam dynamics. It covers the dynamics of relativistic particle beams, basics of particle guidance and focusing, lattice design, characteristics of beam transport systems and circular accelerators. This text is aimed at students and scientists who are interested in an introduction to particle-beam optics and accelerator physics. It provides a general understanding of particle-beam physics and forms a broad basis for the further, more detailed studies of nonlinear beam dynamics and associated accelerator physics problems presented in the second volume, which focuses on nonlinear and higher-order beam dynamics.
