This course introduces the basic concepts in accelerator theory and practice. After a brief review of classical mechanics, the following topics are developed: longitudinal and transverse motion of particles in linear and nonlinear fields in linear and circular accelerators; effects of synchrotron radiation on particle motion; collective motion of particle beams. Applications in Particle, Nuclear, Surface, and Condensed Matter Physics, Chemistry and Biology will be discussed. Since accelerators are important resources for these fields, their understanding will enable curious scientists better to understand the requirements of their apparatus and to contribute to the direction of the future of their field. Prerequisites include Hamiltonian Mechanics (PHYS 325/326 or PHYS 500) and Electromagnetic Theory (PHYS 435/436 or PHYS 505).
