The International Particle Accelerator Conference ‘24 (IPAC24) will be held in Nashville, Tennessee, 19-24 May 2024. Physical Review Accelerators and Beams (PRAB) is looking forward to welcoming you there for a tutorial and a reception!

PRAB is also inviting papers which expand upon original research or topical reviews presented at IPAC’23.

The editors of Physical Review Accelerators and Beams are pleased to announce the following change to the journal’s table of contents. In response to increasing interest and demand, we are extending the section so far entitled “Design Studies” to “Accelerator Facilities and Design Studies.”

Solutions to the challenges of vacuum chambers for diffraction limited storage rings are presented for the upgrade of the Swiss Light Source: From design to assembly.

A commercial linac prototype demonstrates key features for medical applications.

A transverse deflecting structure operating in two rf modes can provide time-varying linear polarization at ultrafast speed.

Tapered dielectric-lined waveguide allows a low energy, subrelativistic, electron beam to be accelerated to higher energy with a THz pulse.

APS has selected 156 Outstanding Referees for 2024 who have demonstrated exceptional work in the assessment of manuscripts published in the Physical Review journals. A full list of the Outstanding Referees is available online.

We are happy to welcome Sara Casalbuoni of the European XFEL as a new Associate Editor of Physical Review Accelerators and Beams (PRAB).

The APS Division of Physics of Beams, in partnership with the Physical Review Accelerators and Beams (PRAB) journal, is pleased to recognize Mamdouh Nasr, Emilio Nanni, Martin Breidenbach, Stephen Weathersby, Marco Oriunno, and Sami Tantawi, for their paper entitled Experimental demonstration of particle acceleration with normal conducting accelerating structure at cryogenic temperature.

The 2020 APS Robert R. Wilson Prize was won by Bruce E. Carlsten. This paper is an invited contribution inspired by this award.

PRAB invites Review Articles on topics of particular interest to our readership. Reviews should be useful to both practitioners and newcomers, with historical background and literature survey. An ideal review examines the progress, identifies the most successful methods, and points out areas for future development.
