Program Holland@CERN

Holland@CERN and CERN@Holland!
As you have probably noticed, the Netherlands has a new government.
One of the main priorities of the new coalition agreement is
‘innovation’, because - I quote – ‘strengthening the innovative power
of industry is vital to future economic development. Good cooperation
between industry, knowledge institutions, and government is of great
importance. The relationship between knowledge, science, applied
research and innovation policy will be strengthened.’ To this end the
new government has even created a new Ministry of Economic
Affairs, Agriculture and Innovation, which is sponsoring
Holland@CERN.
But that is about government. Most important for innovation are of course enterprises, academic
and research institutions. Like the highly qualified 28 Dutch companies now attending this hightech exposition at CERN. A compliment to Nikhef - and my good friend Jos Engelen! - Stichting
FOM/Plasmafysica Rijnhuizen and Dutch Scientific!
CERN is one of the largest and most respected research institutions in the world. It has an
outstanding academic and scientific reputation in particle physics. Achievements such as the
discovery of W and Z bosons, the first creation of antihydrogen atoms and the discovery of direct
CP-violation are direct results of experiments at CERN. CERN produced several Nobel Prize
winners in physics – including three Dutchmen. Nowadays, we can all learn about such
achievements on the World Wide Web – which started as a CERN project. For enterprises
looking for innovative opportunities, CERN is certainly a place to be. So my advice to you: bring
Holland to CERN and CERN to Holland. A win-win!
I would like to welcome all participants to this exposition. And please do not hesitate to knock on
my door in Geneva or call upon my colleagues in Bern or the ministry in The Hague if we can
assist you.

Fundamental science and business
Holland, the Netherlands, was one of the signatories of the
intergovernmental agreement by which CERN was founded in 1954. So in
that sense: Holland is at CERN since 1954. There is, however, every
reason to welcome this event, Holland@CERN, in 2010.
The fundamental science pursued at CERN is aimed at pushing back the
boundaries of knowledge. That has happened successfully in the past and
the Large Hadron Collider, in operation since October 2009, holds great
promises for the future. At CERN pushing back the boundaries of knowledge implies pushing
back the boundaries of technology. A similar observation can be made for the European
Synchrotron Radiation Facility, also involved in the organisation of this event. And this provides
a natural connection between fundamental scientific research and innovative private enterprises:
they need and can reinforce each other. Researchers define what they need – processors, fast
electronics, light and strong materials, high current density superconductors, ultra high vacuum,
sophisticated cryogenics, etc., etc. – and (common) R&D projects lead to the desired products,
sometimes to immediate ‘business’ for the private party, sometimes to new products that bring
benefits at a longer timescale. And of course there are also examples where high-tech advanced
products are already available: also in that case an event like Holland@CERN can be very useful
in bringing parties together.
The ‘knowledge economy’ on which European, so also Dutch, wealth and well being will be
based to an ever greater extent can only flourish if there is an open and lively innovation system.
In such a system public and private R&D, researchers and private enterprises need to be in
constant and constructive contact. May this event contribute to that contact!

Abstracts
Harald Reichert: Upgrade plans ESRF (9 November 16:30 Auditorium)
"At the Holland@CERN event, Harald Reichert represents Francesco Sette, Director General of
the ESRF. A physicist who spent a major part of his career at the Max-Planck-Institute for Metal
Research, Harald took office as one of two Directors of Research at the ESRF on 1 January 2009.
His presentation on the ESRF Upgrade Programme will outline the four components of this 180
million Euro capital investment over 7 years (2009-2015), which will keep the ESRF at the
forefront of synchrotron science worldwide: improvements to the accelerator complex, expanded
experimental halls, development of eight new Upgrade Beamlines to enable new science, and
advances in instrumentation. In line with the audience, his presentation will focus on the
technological challenges of instrumentation, including data processing, and new beamlines."
Jean-Michel Georgoux: ESRF purchasing service (9 November 16:00 Auditorium)
The ESRF is funded by 19 member countries and scientific associates, but has its legal
foundation as a private company operating under French law. Jean-Michel Georgoux is Head of
the ESRF Purchase Service. His presentation will outline ESRF Purchasing rules and the main
ESRF Purchasing sectors. He will give details on how to do business with the ESRF in practical
terms.
Thierry Lagrange: CERN purchasing procedures (9 November 16:00 Auditorium)
At the foundation of CERN there was determined that all the goods and services will be obtained
from the member states. To provide a level playing field the Purchase Department handles the
procedures involved. The head of the Finance and Procurement Department, Thierry Lagrange is
responsible for these procedures and will reveal its secrets.
Wim Bras: 10 Years DUBBLE (9 November 17:45 Auditorium)
The Dutch Belgian BeamLines at the ESRF have been officially operational since 5/6/2000. In
June 2010 the 500th publication with data from these beam lines appeared.
The DUBBLE project consists of two beam lines which use ESRF bending magnet radiation to
perform different X-ray scattering and spectroscopy techniques. The beam time available for
Dutch and Belgian users is complementary to the beam time available on the public ESRF beam
lines.
The main techniques in use on the beam lines are Small- and Wide Angle X-ray scattering and Xray absorption spectroscopy. Both these techniques find a wide range of applications in the
Dutch- Belgian research community. This ranges from very applied research like the structure
evolution in plastic films during the production of garbage bags to very fundamental work on
density fluctuations in undercooled water. But also biologically interesting subjects like the
structure of different spider silks under tension or pure physics in the form of the deformation of
crystalline structure under 30 Tesla magnetic fields.
In the presentation a brief introduction to the beam lines and history will be given. This will be
followed by several examples for which not only the experiment but also the scientific context is
understandable for the interested lay-person.
Roger Ruber: The CLIC accelerator (9 November 17:45 Auditorium)
Roger Ruber was born on the 20th of July 1966 in Grevenbicht, thirty kilometers north of
Maastricht in the Netherlands' province of Limburg. After passing through Dutch secondary
school (HAVO and VWO), he studied applied physics at the Technische Hogeschool Eindhoven.
After his graduation in 1991 he acquired a one year grant from the Japanese Ministry of
Education (Monbusho) to study detector magnet systems at the National Laboratory for High
Energy Physics (KEK). After returning to Europe he took up research at the Department of
Radiation Sciences at Uppsala University on the WASA detector set-up for meson rare-decay
studies. In 1997 he passed his engineering licentiate degree specializing in the development of
superconducting magnets and was offered a research engineer position at Uppsala University. In
1999 he was offered a senior research engineer position at the The Svedberg Laboratory (TSL)
and was promoted the same year to a technical doctorate degree in physics at Uppsala University.
In 2000 he was invited to spend a sabbatical year as visiting scientist at KEK. A year after
returning to Uppsala, he was asked to become on-site project coordinator for the installation and
commissioning of the ATLAS detector’s Central Solenoid at CERN. This work, in parallel with
development of instrumentation for the ATLAS Toroid magnets was completed in 2006 with the
successful commissioning of the Central Solenoid and Barrel Toroid. Since then he is active at
Uppsala University on the development of the CLIC and ESS accelerator.
Now Roger is strongly involved in the CLIC project, the future of accelerators.

Product information
ECM Technologies develops electrochemical machining processes for metal products of
complex geometry (i.e. Turbine blades) that can hardly or not at all be made by conventional
machining processes. The ECM technology is very suitable for products of super alloys even
in large series.
Characteristics of the ECM process:
• The product after processing is free of burrs
• No-contact process principle, no mechanical forces
• The process does not cause thermal or physical strain in the product
• Unlike other machining techniques, no upper-layer deformation occurs
• 3-Dimensional products can be processed in one single step
• High surface quality level attainable (Ra < 0,02 µm) depending on material used
• High dimensional accuracy attainable
• Material strain which loosens during the process will be compensated where possible
• Stainless steels are affected by various conventional machining techniques in the
upper-layer, as a result of which local rust formation can occur. This is not the case
with ECM
• Using the ECM technique generates more freedom in design for a product
• ECM is a technique with a high machining speed at relatively low costs.

Abstracts (continued)
Bernard Denis: Knowledge & Technology Transfer (10 November 9:00 Council
Chamber)
CERN encourages knowledge and technology transfer, or generally speaking the access to
technologies, expertise and industrial processes to industries, universities and laboratories.
Different technology transfer modes are used to allow the access to CERN technology by
industry. These include contracted and collaborative research, service and consultancy and the
licensing of intellectual property. The presentation will describe CERN technological domains,
the technology transfer modes, provide for examples of available technologies and business
opportunities as well as a successful case of transfer from High Energy Physics to the X-ray
material analysis instrumentation market.
Lucie Linssen: The CLIC study of a Multi-TeV Linear Collider (10 November 9:30
Council Chamber)
The talk presents the CLIC accelerator and detector studies. A future multi-TeV electron-positron
collider will be the best tool to complement and extend the physics discovery reach of the LHC.
To this aim R&D is currently carried out on the Compact LInear Collider (CLIC) technology and
its physics detector concepts. CLIC is based on a novel two-beam acceleration with very high
acceleration fields (up to 100 MV/m), allowing to reach collision energies of 3 TeV in an
accelerator complex of some 48 km length. The technology is developed by a large international
collaboration and uses several accelerator test facilities worldwide, among which the CTF3 test
facility at CERN. The results of more than two decades of R&D are currently being laid down in
a Conceptual Design Report. The present status and principal results of the R&D will be
presented together with plans for the upcoming technical design phase.
Germana Riddone Fabrication of CLIC RF structures and components (10
November 10:00 Council Chamber)
The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) study is focused on the design of an e- e+ linear collider at
colliding beam energy of 3 TeV with a luminosity of 2·1034 cm-2 s-1. CLIC is based on the
innovative two-beam acceleration scheme, in which the RF power is extracted from a low energy
but high-intensity drive beam, and transferred to a high energy accelerating beam, called main
beam. The accelerating structures of the main beam operate at 11.9942 GHz with an accelerating
gradient of 100 MV/m. The two linacs (each about 21 km) are equipped with two-beam modules,
housing all the main RF and focusing components. To fulfil the CLIC requirements, the different
parts of the RF structures should be fabricated and aligned with a precision of few microns. The
presentation focuses on the engineering and fabrication issues of the RF structures and RF
components. The main steps of the fabrication process, including machining, surface treatment,
alignment and bonding, are reviewed together with the present achievements. This challenging
work in carried out in collaboration with several international industrial partners and institutes.
Special effort is still required to enlarge the market and qualify new European companies. The
talk ends with the presentation of the future CLIC needs and perspectives for industrialization
and mass production coming phases.
Roland Garoby: Plans for the Upgrade of the LHC Injector Complex (10
November 11:00 Council Chamber)
An accelerator complex made-up of 2 linacs and 4 synchrotrons (Linac2, Linac3, LEIR, PS
Booster, PS and SPS) is being used to provide proton and heavy ion beams to the LHC. These
accelerators, which were designed and built many decades ago, have been modified to meet the
needs of the Collider (the oldest one being the PS, which accelerated beam to high energy for the
first time in 1959). Until now, they have performed excellently and with a remarkable flexibility.
Extensive consolidation will however be mandatory for reliable operation until ~2030 (the
expected end of life of the LHC), in combination with major upgrades to allow for pushing the
LHC performance as well as its discovery reach as far as possible. The technical solutions for the
upgrade will be defined and implemented before ~2017 in the frame of the “LHC Injectors’
Upgrade” (LIU) Project. Large investments will have to be made in many different types of
equipment (RF, kickers and pulsed high voltage systems, power converters, magnets, etc.).
The three major fields of my activity at CERN are:
The optimisation of the new LINAC 4 accelerator, which is under construction at the moment,
The upgrade study for the LHC interaction regions to improve the collision rate
Teaching activities in Accelerator physics.
The theoretical part of my work is related to the behavior of charged particle beams in the
magnetic fields of an accelerator, and the specification of the magnet field quality in our storage
rings. Mainly the layout of new machine structures (so-called magnet-lattices) and the influence
of their (multipole-) field errors on the particle stability is my daily work.
Bernhard Holzer: LHC-Upgrade (10 November 11:30 Council Chamber)
The presentation gives a short introduction to the layout of the LHC, its main components and the
corresponding parameters of the colliding particle beams. The key aspect - the so-called
luminosity of the collider - reflects the collision rate of the two beams. It is besides the particle
energy the most important parameter and at the same time the focus of the actual machine
operation and the LHC upgrade program at CERN. The luminosity will be discussed in detail and
its design goal will be compared to the present machine performance.
Based on these considerations we will present the concepts that are studied at CERN to increase
the particle collision rate: what do we have to do, to improve the luminosity? What are the new
technical challenges that we face and which are the efforts in research and technical development
that will be needed to reach the goal:
Key words are new s.c. magnet design (Nb3Sn technology) to achieve large aperture / high
gradient magnets, additional or more effective He-cooling, transverse deflecting rf cavities
("crab" cavities) to overcome the geometric luminosity reduction factor and the increase of the
single proton bunch intensity by more effective acceleration in the pre-accelerator chain.
I am working in the group of accelerator physicists that describes theoretically the behaviour of
charged particle beams in storage rings. The understanding of the main beam parameters of LHC
and other operating machines at CERN, as well as the improvement of their performance is
presently a top issue for us. In addition we are responsible for the design of new accelerator
projects.
Collective Promotional Activities programme (CPA)
NL Agency is a department of the Dutch ministry of Economic Affairs responsible for the
implementation of sustainability, innovation and economic development programmes for various
governmental bodies. It is the contact point for businesses, educational institutions and
government bodies for information and advice, financing, networking en regulatory matters.
The division NL EVD International stimulates international business and cooperation and
promotes a positive image of the Netherlands abroad. As a division of a State agency and a
partner to businesses and public-sector organisations, NL EVD International aims to help them
achieve success in their international operations. A growing network of organisations,
government institutions and companies have come to rely on NL EVD International for
information about foreign markets, governments and trade and industry.
One of the services the division NL EVD International provides is the Collective Promotional
Activities programme (CPA). CPA promotes the organization of incoming en out-going trade
missions, collective trade fairs and international promotional activities on behalf of Dutch
companies. Each year, there are about 90 CPA activities, which can take place within any sector
and / or country.

Epilogue
Holland@CERN is an important opportunity for Dutch highly technological firms to show
themselves to physicists and technicians. Good communication is crucial for doing business and
this is supported by an exposition like Holland@CERN, a benefit for both suppliers and buyers.
A pied à terre for firms from the Netherlands formed by the locally working Dutch employees is
another aim of this event. Doing business with Big Science stimulates innovation and with the
knowledge and technology transfer are proofs of valorization.
This First Holland@CERN in almost 15 years would not have been possible without the CPA
sponsor contract of NL EVD International. We, the organisation of Holland@CERN, want to
thank all the people involved in realising this sponsorship.
We also would like to thank the CERN organisation for hosting the event, especially Karine
Robert who has been our local coordinator was of essential support. Merci Karine!
Another word of acknowledgment goes to all the talks and excursions in a varied program during
Holland@CERN. Thank you all very much.
We as initiators were enormously inspired by the enthusiasm we encountered during the months
we have been busy with the organisation of Holland@CERN. We are looking forward to the
event itself and seeing you there and may this Holland@CERN be the first of a new series of
Dutch exhibitions from industries working for Big Science.
