Electron-Cloud Effects in past and future machines - walk through 50 years of Electron-Cloud studies

Abstract

Past electron-cloud (e-cloud) observations, studies and mitigation techniques are quickly reviewed along with some ongoing code developments, the preceding ECLOUD workshops, recent contacts with the spacecraft community, the important role of Francesco Ruggiero, and a few current electron-cloud topics discussed at ECLOUD12 in La Biodola.Comment: 9 pages, contribution to the Joint INFN-CERN-EuCARD-AccNet Workshop on Electron-Cloud Effects: ECLOUD'12; 5-9 Jun 2012, La Biodola, Isola d'Elba, Ital
