1st annual RFTech meeting

Monday 29 Mar 2010, 09:00 → 21:50 Europe/Berlin

4a, Building 1b (DESY. Hamburg)

DESY cordially invites you to the 1st RFTECH annual meeting taking place at the DESY premises in Hamburg on 29 March. RFTECH coordinates and integrates the European development of radiofrequency (rf) technology for future particle accelerators and associated research infrastructures, in a worldwide context. RFTECH encompasses all aspects of RF technology, e.g. klystron development, RF power distribution system, cavity design, and low-level RF system, for linear accelerators and storage rings, including transversely deflecting (crab) cavities and financial aspects such as costing tools.
