Health & Safety Group, ALBA Synchrotron facility, Cerdanyola del Vallès, Spain
ALBA is the Spanish synchrotron facility formed with a 3GeV electron synchrotron accelerator generating bright beams of synchrotron radiation, located in Cerdanyola del Vallès (near Barcelona city).
The electrons are accelerated in a 100 MeV linear accelerator (LINAC). Then, the electron beam enters in a synchrotron...
The US Department of Energy (USDOE) National Labs are typically structured with an Executive Management team consisting of a Lab Director, Deputy Director for Science and a Deputy Director for Operations. The latter serves as the Laboratory’s Chief Operations Officer (COO), overseeing the mission support operations that help enable the science mission of the laboratory. A major responsibility...
The High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) is an upgrade of the LHC to achieve instantaneous luminosities a factor of five larger than the LHC nominal value, thereby enabling the experiments to enlarge their data sample by one order of magnitude compared with the LHC baseline programme.
The HL-LHC project deliverables rank from standard industrial equipment to innovative unprecedented technologies,...
Several negative experiences at Jefferson Lab uncovered a programmatic weakness in the way we tasked contractors providing various services. A process is being put in place to correct this deficiency.
