We are pleased to announce that a Topical Workshop on Instabilities, Impedance and Collective Effects shall be organized by Synchrotron SOLEIL on the 16th and 17th January 2014 as a sub-series of Low Emittance Rings (LOWεRING) Workshops.
The goal of the workshop is to bring together experts working on collective beam instabilities and related subjects in low emittance lepton rings. The latter include damping rings, test facilities for linear colliders, B‐ factories and electron storage rings. The theme will be generically all potentially important collective effects that may arise and jeopardise the performance of currently running and future low emittance lepton rings. Participants will benefit from the experience of colleagues who have theoretically and experimentally studied the physics behind, and have developed and operated countermeasures.
This shall be the first topical workshop after the three general ones organised in the past since 2010:

The state of the art in the design of accelerator systems in light source storage rings has today many challenges and issues in common with those of linear collider damping rings and future e+/e‐ circular collider upgrade projects. The series of workshops specifically aims at strengthening the collaborations within the low emittance ring community, including the LOWεRING collaboration network and the USR workshops community. The workshop is supported by the EuCARD2 project.
Workshop sessions will include:
- Impedances and Instabilities
- Two-Stream Instabilities
- Particles Scattering
- Coherent Synchrotron Radiation Instabilities
Relevant information about the workshop venue and organization, registration procedure and scientific programme will be communicated shortly in a second announcement.
Proposals for contributions to the workshop should be addressed to one of the workshop organizers
Ryutaro Nagaoka (Synchrotron SOLEIL), E. Al-Dmour (Maxlab), F. Antoniou (CERN), T. Demma (LAL), E. Karantzoulis (Elettra), A.-S. Müller (ANKA), G. Rumolo (CERN)
