Both linear and circular machines will be covered, with emphasis on electron beam rather than proton or ion beams. For linear accelerators, an overview of microwave structures and sources will be given. More time will be spent on circular accelerators, covering the transverse beam dynamics concepts of orbit, phase space, beam emittance, betatron functions and envelope, dispersion, tunes, chromaticity with its correction and beam stability. Interaction of accelerator physics and technology are also discussed. PB - JACoW Publishing CP - Geneva, Switzerland ER -
