Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolZeus Diaz is an accelerator physicist with a PhD and nearly two decades at ALBA Synchrotron, specializing in simulation-driven beam dynamics and particle tracking. He has built custom tracking integrators in C and Matlab, led a tenfold acceleration of magnetic optics measurement and fitting now adopted by other facilities, and implements Slurm-based large-scale simulations of realistic magnetic and alignment errors. Comfortable in the control room and with Tango/Python bindings, he blends hands-on experimental work with advanced online optimization—applying multidimensional Powell and Gaussian Process methods to extend beam lifetime. He has co-supervised a PhD and mentored undergraduates, pairing technical depth with clear communication and team leadership. Outside the lab he manages a global financial portfolio using long-term, data-driven strategies, reflecting his analytical approach to complex systems. Based in the Greater Barcelona area, he continues designing ALBA’s upgrade and integrating novel computational and control solutions into accelerator operations.
