Franklin James „Frank“ Sacherer (22. May 1940–31. August 1978) was an a American theoretical physicist who specialized in accelerator science.[1][2]
He joined CERN as a visiting scientist within the Synchro-Injector Division in 1969. Sacherer became staff member in 1977 and was then transferred to the ISR Department, within the ISR-TH group lead by Eberhard Keil. During his years at CERN, Sacherer developed a strong interest for stochastic cooling.
Sacherer died in a mountaineering accident together with his colleague Joseph H. Weis.
The accelerator group of the European Physical Society awards the Frank Sacherer Prize for an individual in the early part of his or her career, having made a recent significant, original contribution to the accelerator field.
