Biography

The Particle Beam Physics Laboratory (PBPL) at UCLA is a state-of-the-art center for research on intense relativistic beams and fundamental physics. Over its thirty-year history, PBPL has produced dozens of successful PhDs. The laboratory focuses on cutting-edge research areas such as wakefield acceleration, nonlinear effects in intense-laser-electron collisions, and advanced photocathode systems. Research directions include the development of cryogenic RF accelerators, novel sources for relativistic Compton scattering X-rays, and various applications in medicine and cultural heritage studies. With its rich tradition in accelerator science dating back to Galileo, PBPL plays a pivotal role in developing transformative acceleration techniques and their applications across multiple fields.
