Motivation
Registration will open on June 23, 2025.
SNEAP is a conference to discuss all aspects of the operation of electrostatic accelerators. The operation of the BNL Tandem Van de Graaff facility benefits from interactions with the wider SNEAP community. Learning from the experience of other laboratories operating electrostatic accelerators. Without this event there will be a loss of knowledge transfer among laboratories operating electrostatic accelerators. BNL has benefited from previous SNEAP meetings. The BNL Tandem is currently undergoing an upgrade and the experience of other laboratories that have undergone similar upgrades would be very valuable and make the transition smoother.
