About

M. Taborelli is a leading expert in surface engineering for particle accelerators, specializing in the mitigation of electron clouds and secondary electron yield (SEY) through advanced laser and plasma coating technologies. Their major contributions include pioneering picosecond pulsed laser systems for roughening internal surfaces of up to 15-meter-long tubes, effectively suppressing electron multipacting by creating microstructures that scatter electrons and drastically reduce SEY. Additionally, Taborelli developed a robotic in-situ plasma deposition technique for coating RHIC cold bore vacuum tubes with thick oxygen-free high-conductivity copper (OFHC), solving critical ohmic heating and electron cloud problems in superconducting magnets. Their work, cited in key accelerator physics papers, has directly enabled stable operation of high-energy colliders. Notable achievements include the first demonstration of mobile mole-mounted magnetrons for in-situ coating of 316LN stainless steel, a breakthrough for long-tube surface treatments. With over 100 publications and patents, Taborelli’s innovations are foundational for next-generation accelerators, offering scalable solutions for beam-induced vacuum challenges.
