Prof. Wang Sheng is a senior researcher in accelerator physics, and now the deputy director of the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) and the director of IHEP’s Dongguan Campus.
Prof. Wang received his bachelor degree from Beijing Institute of Technology in 1990 and his doctorate degree in accelerator physics and technology from China Institute of Atomic Energy in 1996. From 1996 to 1998, he was a postdoc researcher at the IHEP, working on the beam-to-beam interaction study for BEPC and BEPCII. From 2000, he spent two years in KEK of Japan and participated in the preliminary research of J-PARC, Japan's high-current proton accelerator project. Returned to China in 2002, he joined the preliminary research of the China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) project, responsible for the physical design of the accelerator. Since then, he was indulged in this project for more than 20 years.
As the helmsman of the CSNS accelerator system, he led the team with huge success in developing novel technology and expanding the science knowledge boundaries, making outstanding contributions to the construction and the operation of the CSNS project.
Now as the deputy director of IHEP, he is responsible for the daily operation of the Dongguan Campus. He is also the deputy project manager of the High-Energy Photon Source (HEPS), and the preliminary research project leader for the Southern Advanced Photon Source (SAPS).
Prof. Wang has published more than 80 articles, about 40 conference articles, and more than 20 invited conference reports. He also serves as a member of International Advisory Committee of Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC).
