“…Among the most notable contributions of the Tevatron to the accelerator technology and beam physics are the development and first large scale deployment of accelerator quality superconducting high field magnets; the first high energy accelerator ever built with permanent magnets; the world's most advanced antiproton production and cooling complex which delivered more than 90% of the world's total man-made nuclear antimatter (17 nanograms) over the decades; the highest performance antiproton stochastic cooling and electron cooling systems; the first extensive operational use of slip-stacking and barrier bucket rf manipulation methods; electron lenses for beam-beam compensation and hollow electron beam collimation; great advancements in beam physics through the studies of the beam-beam effects, crystal collimation, electron cloud (83) and beam emittance growth mechanisms; new theories of beam optics (84,85), intra-beam scattering and instabilities (86); sophisticated beam-beam and luminosity modeling (87,88); and more efficient beam instrumentation (89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96).…”

“…When operations ceased a luminosity of 4.3×10 32 cm -2 sec -1 at 1. 96 TeV had been achieved. Many formidable challenges, arising both from technology and fundamental accelerator physics limitations, were overcome both to achieve the initial goal and the subsequent factor of four hundred improvement.…”

For more than 25 years the Tevatron was the highest energy accelerator in the world, providing the first access to particle collisions beyond 1 TeV and achieving an ultimate performance a factor of four hundred beyond the original design goals. This article reviews the many formidable challenges that were overcome, and the knowledge gained, in building, operating, and improving the Tevatron over its lifetime. These challenges included: the first operations of an accelerator based on superconducting magnets, production of antiprotons in sufficient numbers to support a useable luminosity, management of beam-beam, intrabeam, and other collective effects, novel manipulations of the beam longitudinal phase space, and development and application of a wide variety of innovative technologies. These achievements established the legacy of the Tevatron as the progenitor of all subsequently constructed high energy hadron colliders.Comment: Submitted to Annual Reviews of Nuclear and Particle Scienc

For almost a quarter of a century, the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider was the centerpiece of the world's high energy physics program -since it began operation in December of 1985, until it was overtaken by LHC in 2011. The aim of this unique scientific instrument was to explore the elementary particle physics reactions with center of mass collision energies of up to 1.96 TeV. The initial design luminosity of the Tevatron was 10 30 cm −2 s −1 , however as a result of two decades of upgrades, the accelerator has been able to deliver 430 times higher luminosities to each of two high luminosity experiments, CDF and D0. The Tevatron has been shut off since September 30, 2011. The collider was arguably one of the most complex research instruments ever to reach the operation stage and is widely recognized for many technological breakthroughs and numerous physics discoveries. In this paper, we briefly present the history of the Tevatron, major advances in accelerator physics, technology implemented during the long quest for better and better performance, and the lessons learned from our experience.
