The HIAT Series - Venues • HIAT 2009 is the 11th in a series of conferences, going back to 1973 in Daresbury and followed by Strasbourg (1977), Oak Ridge (1981), Buenos Aires (1985), Strasbourg-Heidelberg (1989), Legnaro (1992), Canberra (1995), Argonne(1998), Delhi (2002), Brookhaven (2005). • In the US, occasionally, it has been associated to SNEAP (Symposium for North-East Accelerator Personnel), a workshop attended also by high level technical staff.
The HIAT Series – Development… • Electrostatic Accelerators (till 1985) • Electrostatic Acceleratorsand Boosters, includingLinacs and Storage Rings (1989 – 1992) 1992: applicationssuchasRIBs, AMS, laser acceleration start toenter 1998 (namedHIAT since 1995): RIBs and AMS get more space, on the solidbranches of the accelerator-rooted conference 2002: ECR sources and SC linacshave a somewhatwiderspace 2005: smallnumberoftalks on previoustopics
The HIAT Series - @ present • HIAT deals with heavy ion accelerators and their components, including their design, realization, test and operation. • -Electrostatic Accelerators- Room Temperature and Superconducting Linac Boosters and Cavities- Room Temperature and Superconducting Cyclotrons- Synchrotrons and Storage Rings- RIBFacilities- Ion Sources and Traps- Main Accelerator Systems and Components (e.g. RF, Vacuum, Control, Diagnostics, Cryogenics, Radioprotection, Mass Spectrometry, mbeamFacilities) • Devoted to the accelerator teams of any institution running or developing heavy ion facilities or their components for nuclear physics and astrophysics as well as their applications in medicine, accelerator mass spectrometry, material analysis and processing, nuclear waste management, dynamics of nuclear fusion and fission, radiation science and dosimetry, development and production of radionuclides, environmental metrology, etc.
With respect to main conferences, focus is rather on technical and operation issues (e.g. development on specific components) than on general status reports on big machines • HIAT gives opportunity of oral presentations to young scientists
Participants HIAT09 129attendees (17countries) from : • 23 – hosting lab • 63 – elsewhere in EU (13 of which from elsewhere in Italy) • 23 – Asia • 17 – North America • 1 – Oceania

Experience asnewcomers in JACOW • Webpagehandled by Indico: OK • Paper processingthrough SPMS software: quite fine paper fixing with the PitStop code received from V. Schaa; preparation of the XML file for the SPMS systemwas more cumbersome (database structurewaschangedduring the process…) but a lot of «online» supportfrom the CERN Team anyway. EventuallyOK • Lessonslearned: • involve your team in paper processing of otherconferences (up to the conclusion of the process...); • a SPMS updatedmanualwouldcertainly be beneficial
HIAT2012 will be held in Chicago, Illinois USA from June 18-21, 2012 (Host: Argonne National Laboratory) Venue: Chicago HistoryMuseum
