Interaction of ultrarelativistic electron and proton bunches with dense plasmas
@article{Rukhadze2012InteractionOU, title={Interaction of ultrarelativistic electron and proton bunches with dense plasmas}, author={A. A. Rukhadze and Saltanat Sadykova}, journal={Physical Review Special Topics-accelerators and Beams}, year={2012}, volume={15}, pages={041302} }
Here we discuss the possibility of employment of ultrarelativistic electron and proton bunches for generation of high plasma wakefields in dense plasmas due to the Cherenkov resonance plasma-bunch interaction. We estimate the maximum amplitude of such a wake and minimum system length at which the maximum amplitude can be generated at the given bunch parameters.

Self-modulation instability of a long proton bunch in plasmas.

It is shown that the self-modulation of the proton bunch competes with the hosing instability which tends to destroy the plasma wave, and a method is proposed and studied through PIC simulations to circumvent this problem, which relies on the seeding of theSelf-Modulation instability in the bunch.

It is shown that energy gradients can exceed 1 GeV/m and that the driven electrons can be accelerated from 0.0 m 0 c 2 to 3 m 2 before the driving beam slows down enough to degrade the plasma wave.

Energy doubling of 42 GeV electrons in a metre-scale plasma wakefield accelerator
- PhysicsNature

An energy gain of more than 42 GeV is achieved in a plasma wakefield accelerator of 85 cm length, driven by a 42GeV electron beam at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC), in excellent agreement with the predictions of three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations.
