Description
"Field Simulation for Accelerator Magnets" is a comprehensive two-volume reference on the electromagnetic design and measurement of accelerator magnets. It covers the design and optimization of magnets with highly uniform fields, which are crucial for accelerating electrons or hadrons in particle accelerators used in various scientific fields.
The volumes provide essential mathematical foundations for project engineers and beam physicists, and are valuable for students of electrical engineering and physics. They offer detailed discussions on topics such as vector algebra, network theory, field computation, magnetic measurements, beam optics, and more. Additionally, they explore mathematical optimization techniques, multiphysics simulation, and model-based systems engineering.
Authored by a leading expert, these volumes are an excellent resource for learning mathematical methods and numerical techniques applicable in industry and science.
