Description

This will be the third in a series of workshops (started by SNS in 2009) devoted to the topic of H- laser stripping. This year we are including discussions on the utilization of laser systems in other H- accelerator applications. The main topics of discussion will be:
  • the latest advances in the theoretical understanding and experimental verification of H- laser stripping,
  • laser based H- beam diagnostics,
  • other applications for H- beam manipulation with lasers,
  • and advances in laser technology associated high peak and average power laser systems such as optical storage cavities, pulsed optical cavities, fiber systems, fiber transport, transverse beam shaping, etc.

This workshop will bring together international colleagues, national labs, universities, industrial partners working in these areas to share expertise and advancements over the past two years. We also plan to have leading experts in the fields of cryogenic lasers/amplifiers, enhancement cavities, and high power fiber lasers/amplifiers present for presentations on the state of the art developments.
