Organization

The Accelerator Research Department is composed of more than 90 people (technicians, engineers & physicists). The management of the activity, which is focused on the Department projects, is organized around 2 thematic "poles" :

• the ALTO pole, dedicated to the production of stable & radioactive ion beams, including associated R&D,
  
• the SUPRATECH pole, dedicated to the R&D for superconducting accelerating cavities and associated experiments.
  

Three transverse groups are also supporting these main thematics :

• the Modeling & Simulation group, dedicated to accelerator design and simulations,
  
•  the Electronics for Accelerators group, dedicated to RF and high-voltage electronics developments and to R&D on beam diagnostics,
  
• the Design Office group, dedicated to mechanical design, definition of technical specifications, tenders and fabrication/installation monitoring.
