IPAC'23 - Conference guide

IPAC’23 Accelerator Awards IPAC’23 / CONFERENCE GUIDE 37 The European Physical Society Accelerator Group (EPS-AG) has offered four awards on the occasion of the 14th International Particle Accelerator Conference (IPAC’23) and selected the following winners, who have made outstanding contributions to accelerator science and technology, and who are committed to its peaceful use and collaboration. Rolf Wideröe Prize The Rolf Wideröe Prize for outstanding work in the accelerator field with no age limit. The winner will receive an engravedmedal, andmake an oral presentation during the Accelerator Prizes Special Session during IPAC’23. Katsunobu Oide The EPS-AG Rolf Wideröe Prize for outstanding work in the accelerator field has been given to Katsunobu Oide, KEK and visiting scientist at CERN / University of Geneva, for his many conceptual contributions to linear and circular particle colliders. Examples include the Oide limit of final focus systems and the design of the final focus test beam at SLAC, crab crossing in circular colliders, the beam optics design code SAD, design work for KEKB and KEK-ATF, advanced lattice design for the FCC study, and his leading role in design, commissioning and performance optimization of KEK accelerators. Gersh Budker Prize The Gersh Budker Prize for a recent, significant contribution to the accelerator field with no age limit. The winner will receive an engraved medal, and make an oral presentation during the Accelerator Prizes Special Session during IPAC’23. Mikhail Krasilnikov The Gersh Budker Prize for a recent, significant, original contribution to the accelerator field has been awarded to Mikhail Krasilnikov, DESY/ Zeuthen, for his achievements in the development of high brightness electron beams and a high power, tunable THz SASE free electron laser based on those beams, demonstrating lasing at the PITZ facility in 2022.
