主讲人简介：

Dr. Jeff Corbett, SLAC National Accelerator LaboratoryDr. Jeff Corbett received his B.S. in Electrical Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley in 1983 and PhD in Plasma Physics at UCLA in 1989. He then joined Stanford Linear Accelerator Center to work on particle colliders and synchrotron radiation light sources. Dr. Corbett is currently responsible for diagnostic systems for the SPEAR3 accelerator complex with a research interest in visible photon beam diagnostics.

讲座简介：  

Particle accelerators have been used for many years to study nuclear and high-energy physics phenomena. In the process new developments in accelerator technology often lead the way to new research opportunities. An important example is the field of synchrotron radiation science. In this lecture we look at the history of particle accelerators from early pioneering experiments to recent applications including large scale synchrotron radiation x-ray facilities and the advent of the 'free electron laser' which can produce short pulse radiation with very high instantaneous beam power.
