Ting Xu

Ting Xu is a Professor in the Department of Physics & Astronomy at Michigan State University, affiliated with the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB). His research advances superconducting magnet technology, cryogenic systems, and particle accelerator design for nuclear physics applications. He leads developments in high-power ion sources, RF cavity optimization, and beam dynamics for next-generation rare isotope facilities.

Research Focus: Xu specializes in:

• Superconducting magnet engineering for beamline transport and ion sources
• Cryomodule design and thermal management for continuous-wave accelerators
• RF cavity surface treatments to maximize accelerating gradients
• Beam diagnostics and power scaling for heavy-ion accelerators

His recent publications (2023-2025) demonstrate consistent focus on FRIB commissioning, uranium beam acceleration, and cryogenic resonator innovations. Over 80% of his latest work involves experimental validations of superconducting systems, with recurring themes in vibration control, multipacting suppression, and plasma-based cavity processing.
