Mihaly Vadai has successfully passed his PhD viva this morning with the usual minor corrections.

It is our pleasure to announce that Mihaly Vadai has successfully passed his PhD viva this morning with the usual minor corrections. 

 

Mihaly Vadai was a PhD student on a joint collaboration between QMUL EECS and CERN (Switzerland) and his work was focused on “Beam Loss Reduction by Barrier Buckets in the CERN Accelerator Complex”. In the framework of a QMUL EECS and CERN SY joint PhD project, he developed firmware for a radiofrequency drive in the accelerator and took part in the implementation of a unique beam manipulation, which achieved a significant beam loss reduction for fixed-target beams in the CERN PS. He was supervised jointly by myself and also Dr Heiko Damerau (CERN).
