The 40MeV linear accelerator and 3$\mu$m free-electron laser (FEL) facility at UH offers a versatile platform for advanced beam physics experiments and compact radiation source development. In this talk, I will discuss opportunities for applying AI and machine learning methods to optimize key beam parameters critical for the performance of the FEL and the inverse Compton scattering (ICS)....
The axion is a compelling hypothetical particle that could account for some or all of the dark matter in our universe, while simultaneously explaining why quark interactions within the neutron do not appear to give rise to an electric dipole moment. The most sensitive axion detection technique in the 4-40 ueV mass range makes use of the axion-photon coupling and is called the axion cavity...
