Their remarkable achievements in particle acceleration have significantly contributed to the scientific community and have been recognised worldwide.
Massimo Ferrario's innovative contributions in high-brilliance photoinjectors, FEL physics, and particle acceleration with plasma are truly impressive.
Lucio Rossi's developments on superconducting magnets and their realisation for the LHC collider and upgrade projects inspire many scientists worldwide.
Frank Zimmermann's seminal discoveries in beam physics have enabled high-luminosity, high-energy colliders for particle physics, and his contributions to the understanding and modelling various effects related to accelerated electron beams have been of utmost importance for all electron accelerators.
Their recognition with the "Enrico Fermi" Prize is a testament to their vision, hard work, and dedication.
We are proud that all three of them have been sharing their expertise as CAS lecturers, underlining the quality of the courses.
Their achievements inspire us all to strive for excellence in our fields. We offer our heartfelt congratulations on their well-deserved recognition, and we wish them continued success in their future endeavours.
