Did you know that particle accelerators play an important role in many functions of todays society and that there are over 30 000 accelerators in operation worldwide? A few examples are accelerators for radiotherapy which are the largest application of accelerators, altogether with more than 11000 accelerators worldwide. These accelerators range from very compact electron linear accelerators with a length of only about 1 m to large carbon ion synchrotrons with a circumference of more than 50 m and a huge rotating carbon ion gantry with a weight of 600 tons! There are also a growing number of synchrotron light sources in the world. The light in these sources are created by electrons that are accelerated to almost the speed of light. This light can reveal the molecular structures of materials and also take x-ray pictures of the inner structure of objects. Synchrotron light sources are very important in life sciences, material sciences and chemistry. Another type of accelerators are used in spallation sources, like the European Spallation Source in Lund, Sweden. Here protons are accelerated to very large energies. They produce neutrons when they are smashed into a disc of tungsten. These neutrons are used for finding the inner structure of objects and atomic structures of materials. Finally there are many accelerators for basic physics, like the large hadron collider in Cern. This course takes you on a journey through the technologies used in particle accelerators: The microwave system which produce the electromagnetic waves that accelerate particles; The magnet technology for the magnets that guide and focus the beam of particles; The monitoring systems that determine the quality of the beam of particles; Finally the vacuum systems that create ultra high vacuum so that the accelerated particles do not collide with molecules and atoms. Exciting right! The course is graded through quizzes, one for each of the four modules. Throughout the course there are also a number of training quizzes to offer you support. The four modules in the course are: RF-systems, Magnet technology, Beam diagnostics, and Vacuum techniques. In total there are 48 lectures, where each lecture is a 2-4 minutes long video presentation. Some of the lectures are followed by short texts with complementary information and all will hopefully be an exciting collection for you to engage with. Have fun!

粒子加速器技术(NPAP MOOC)的基础知识:您是否知道粒子加速器在当今社会的许多功能中起着重要作用,并且全世界有超过3万种加速器在运行?放射治疗用的加速器就是其中的几个例子,这是加速器的最大应用,在全球范围内共有11000多个加速器。这些加速器的范围从长度仅为1 m的非常紧凑的电子线性加速器到周长超过50 m的大型碳离子同步加速器以及重量为600吨的巨大旋转碳离子龙门架! 世界上同步加速器光源的数量也在增长。这些源中的光是由电子产生的,电子被加速到接近光速。这种光可以揭示材料的分子结构,也可以拍摄物体内部结构的X射线照片。同步加速器光源在生命科学,材料科学和化学中非常重要。散裂源中使用了另一种类型的加速器,例如瑞典隆德的欧洲散裂源。在这里,质子被加速到非常大的能量。当它们被粉碎成钨盘时,它们会产生中子。这些中子用于发现物体的内部结构和材料的原子结构。最后,有许多用于基础物理的加速器,例如Cern中的大型强子对撞机。 本课程将带您了解粒子加速器中使用的技术:微波系统产生电磁波以加速粒子;用于引导和聚焦粒子束的磁体的磁体技术;确定粒子束质量的监控系统;最后,真空系统会产生超高真空,从而使加速后的粒子不会与分子和原子碰撞。令人兴奋的权利! 该课程通过测验进行评分,四个模块各测验一个。在整个课程中,还有许多培训测验为您提供支持。本课程中的四个模块是:射频系统,磁体技术,束诊断和真空技术。总共有48个讲座,每个讲座都是2-4分钟的视频演示。一些讲座之后是带有补充信息的简短文本,希望所有这些都将成为您参与的激动人心的收藏。 玩得开心!
