  This paper introduces a portfolio assessment in mathematics for first-year engineering students that was implemented at the University of Agder (UiA) in 2022. The portfolio consists of two key components, contributing 60% and 40% of the final grade, respectively: 1. Four computer-aided assessment (CAA) tests under supervision, providing immediate feedback on the students’ performance. The students can take each test up to four times, with their best attempt counting toward their final grade. 2. A written assignment, where students apply mathematical concepts from the curriculum to solve an engineering problem. We observe that the students take advantage of multiple test attempts, and that after each test, they organically form groups to discuss the problems with each other. Additionally, the university's math support center sees increased usage during test periods. Biggs et al. (2007) claim that learning is a result of what the student does and that active students foster deep learning. We argue that this assessment design encourages the students to become active in their own learning. The written assignment also helps students to relate mathematical competence to realistic engineering problems, thus making the subject more relevant to their studies. We claim that this competence is equally important for engineers as it is to solve difficult calculus problems by hand.

  In the scope of an upgrade of the injector chain of CERN’s accelerator complex, a new linear accelerator, Linac4, is under construction. This accelerator will replace the existing 50 MeV proton linac, Linac2. By increasing the beam energy to 160 MeV, Linac4 makes it possible to double the brightness in the PSB, and ultimately increase the luminosity in the LHC. Linac4 will accelerate beams of negative hydrogen (H−) to be injected into the PSB by multi-turn, charge exchange injection. The ion source was initially based on the non-caesiated RF-volume source from DESY. However, the beam extraction from this source could not handle the 45 keV beam energy required by the RFQ. A new beam extraction system has therefore been designed, via IBSimu simulations [1], to extract and transport the H− ion beam respecting the Linac4 requirements. Key features of the extraction system is a tuneable puller voltage to adapt the extraction field to the ion and electron beam currents, and a magnetized Einzel lens to dump the co-extracted electrons with an energy below 10 keV. This new extraction system has been successfully commissioned at the Linac4 ion source test stand, and is currently being used during the commissioning of the components of Linac4. An H− beam peak current of 60 mA has been measured at the test stand, and long-term stable H− beams of 35 mA have been demonstrated. The extraction system is flexible for the connection of different plasma generators, and can also be used to extract a proton beam by inverting the polarities of the high voltage transformers.
