Training the eyes of an accelerator: CAS Beam Instrumentation course in Split

Thibaut Lefevre, Head of CERN’s Beam Instrumentation Group, reflects on how the CAS Beam Instrumentation course in Split bridges fundamentals and cutting‑edge diagnostics, why hands‑on work and community building matter, and how CAS proceedings help train the next generation of accelerator experts.

The CERN Accelerator School holds training courses on accelerator physics and associated technologies at different levels for physicists, engineers, technicians and students. The courses take place in different member states of CERN and consist of a programme of lectures and tutorials spread over a period of one to two weeks.

We welcome participants from all countries world-wide!
