Investigation of particle and photon beams and their mutual interactions with the goal of developing novel accelerators or radiation devices. Some current topics are production and acceleration of high-brightness electron beams for linear colliders and free electron lasers; beam dynamics in ionization cooling for muon colliders and neutrino factories; self-amplified spontaneous emission for intense, coherent x-rays; miniature IR radiation source via Smith-Purcell process using electron microscope beams; phase-space evolution of synchrotron radiation beams and quantum particle beams.
