- The paper experimentally demonstrates a novel compact particle beam optics design. It is a summary of several years of work of a large international collaboration around Accelerator Test Facility (ATF2), Japan. The method allows de-magnification of the beam’s image, whilst controlling and correcting chromatic aberrations and achieve an extremely small spot size of less than 65 nm. This result is a crucial step towards feasibility of the next energy frontier lepton collider and is a significant accelerator engineering breakthrough. State of the art beam instrumentation devices, developed by the author, were required to achieve this impressive result.
