Hasan Padamsee
Hasan Saruda Padamsee (* 1945 ) is an American physicist who deals with high-energy accelerators .
Padamsee graduated from Brandeis University with a bachelor's degree in 1967 and received his PhD from Northeastern University in 1973 . He then conducted research at Cornell University on high-frequency techniques for superconductors (Superconducting Radio Frequency, SRF) for accelerator physics . Among other things, he clarified the processes involved in the thermal breakdown of superconductivity and found a way out in the use of very pure niobium with a high residual resistance ratio . In 1990 he initiated the TESLA project at Cornell University , which later resulted in an international collaboration, and the International Linear Collider project . In 2014 he became technical director at Fermilab for the development of SRF for the Linac Coherent Light Source II at SLAC and for the Proton Improvement Program (PIP-II) at Fermilab.
In 1981 he was a visiting scientist at CERN . He later also gave lectures at CERN on SRF.
In 2015 he received the Robert R. Wilson Prize . In 2012 he received the IEEE Particle Accelerator Science and Technology Award (PAST) and in 1993 he became a Fellow of the American Physical Society .
