Nordic countries to cool up accelerator science
One of the partners of the oPAC project, the European Spallation Source, is co-organising a summer school for accelerator physics and technology, in Lund University from August 17 to 21, 2015. The BAS2015 summer school is primarily intended for students from Northern Europe at levels between the bachelor's and master's degrees. The objective is to broaden the opportunities for education in accelerator physics and technology and to introduce students to the field of accelerator physics, showing that this is an interesting and broad subject, carried out in an international environment. The initiative shall encourage students to pursue a career in accelerator physics and technology.
This first edition of the Baltic Accelerator School also aims to develop a partnership between European universities in order to establish this school as a regular event. The school will be organised by MAX IV Laboratory, European Spallation Source (ESS), Lund, Uppsala, Aarhus, Oslo and Jyväskylä Universities, together with a partnership of several European universities. The contact person for the BAS2015 Summer School is Christine Darve (christine.darve@esss.se).
