Alojz Paulin (r) in 1959 at the completed microtron in Ljubljana

Alojz Paulin (born August 10, 1930 in Podbrezje, Kingdom of Yugoslavia (now part of the municipality of Naklo , Slovenia )) is a retired Slovenian physicist who dealt with various particle accelerators and their concepts.

Life

Alojz Paulin was born in Podbrezje, where he also attended elementary school. He attended high school in Ljubljana , Klagenfurt and Kranj . In 1948 he enrolled at the University of Ljubljana , studied electrical engineering and physics and graduated on August 6, 1955. He received the title Master of Science on May 29, 1962 and Doctor of Science on June 20, 1962 at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the University of Ljubljana.

He is a member of IEEE , EPS , DPG , ETAN and the Vacuum Society of Slovenia, part of IUVSTA .

activities

In the 1950s, Paulin built an X-band microtron for 3.5 MeV at the IJS . He also publishes a number of calculations, including electron volts or for a microtron with an intensified magnetic field . A microtron of this type was built 2 years later at the Fiziciskih Problem Institute at the Kapica Institute in Moscow . He also took part in the construction of the 3 MeV electrostatic accelerator according to Vaan-de-Graff , where he was specifically responsible for the construction of the accelerator tube. At DESY in Hamburg he was responsible for the high frequency of the 7-GeV accelerator and a member of the group that planned the PETRA storage ring .

As an assistant professor at the Institute for High Frequency Technology at the ETH Zurich , he dealt with high frequency plasma and was involved in the planning and construction of the 600 MeV FFAG cyclotron , especially in the areas of injection and extraction. He also spent some time in the cyclotron lab of Michigan State University , where a superconducting cyclotron was built, and took part in the project and construction of the cyclotron at the Institute of Nuclear Science "Vinča" .

In 1976 he was appointed to the University of Maribor , first as an associate professor and in 1981 as a full professor. Together with Kansky , he also founded the post-graduate course in vacuum technology, which doctoral students from all over Yugoslavia attended.
