DESCRIPTION:Fritz Caspers\nFor our November Stammtisch\, Fritz Caspers wil
 l talk about his research at CERN\n\nFritz Caspers was born in Bonn\, Germ
 any\, in 1950. He studied electrical engineering at the RWTH (Technical Un
 iversity) Aachen (Germany) between 1969 and 1975. Afterwards he became sci
 entific assistant at the "Institut für Hoch- und Höchstfrequenztechnik" 
 at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum (Germany) until spring 1982. He worked in 
 the field of optical fiber technology as well as microwave measurements an
 d received his PhD there (with honors). He joined CERN as a “CERN fellow
 ” in 1982\, working on cavity perturbation measurements and beam couplin
 g impedance evaluation. In 1984 he became member of the antiproton accumul
 ator group and got involved in the development of stochastic cooling syste
 ms for antiproton beams and also had overall operational responsibility fo
 r this part of CERN. He has given many lectures in the CERN accelerator sc
 hool and other schools (JUAS) on RF-\, microwave and beam-diagnostic relat
 ed subjects since about 1990 and served in numerous review committees (CER
 N\, Japan\, China Germany and USA) over several decades. He has authored o
 r co-authored nearly 400 papers (available via CDS CERN) and about 30 pate
 nts or patent applications. Scientific activities include beam stability i
 ssues\, stochastic beam cooling\, RF measurement techniques\, EMIC/EMC res
 ponsibilities and microwave based axion/dark matter search. His present st
 atus (2019) is CERN-user in the experimental physics department. He is lif
 e Fellow of the IEEE since Jan. 2019. Scientific journal reviews include P
 RD\, PRL\, IEEE-IM\, IEEE-ED\, NIMA and many others.
