Biography
Srinivas Krishnagopal completed his Masters in Physics from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay in 1985, and his Ph.D. in accelerator physics from Cornell University, in 1990. During his Ph.D. he worked, with Bob Siemann, on the beam-beam interaction in colliders, and made important contributions to the understanding of bunch-length effects in the beam-beam interaction, and beam-energy inequality. In particular he studied the dynamics of round-beam colliders: this included a study of the beam-beam compensation experiment at DCI.
