Calculations of collimator wakefield phenomena

The thesis will describe the state of the art in calculations, simulations and measurement of wakefields in collimators. I will present a wide ranging summary of work completed over t he last five years. I will introduce improved methods for the analytical calculation of wakefields and I will apply...
