About
Elena Bez is a leading researcher in laser-based surface engineering for particle accelerator technologies, with a focus on mitigating detrimental electron cloud effects in vacuum systems. Her major contribution lies in developing picosecond pulsed 532 nm laser systems capable of roughening and reducing the secondary electron yield (SEY) of inner surfaces in tubes up to 15 meters long—a critical challenge for next-generation accelerators. By demonstrating that laser-induced surface structuring effectively suppresses electron multipacting through enhanced electron scattering, her work directly addresses a key limiting factor in accelerator performance. Her most cited paper (2023, 3 citations) establishes a scalable method for treating long, narrow beam pipes, a feat previously considered impractical. This achievement has significant implications for the design of high-energy physics facilities, including the Large Hadron Collider upgrades. Bez’s innovative approach to in-situ laser processing positions her as a rising authority in surface science and accelerator engineering, bridging fundamental physics with practical engineering solutions for some of the world’s most demanding experimental environments.
