AWAKE, The Advanced Proton Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration Experiment at CERN
E. Gschwendtner, E. Adli, L. Amorim +88
The Advanced Proton Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration Experiment (AWAKE) aims at studying plasma wakefield generation and electron acceleration driven by proton bunches. It is a…
Path to AWAKE: Evolution of the concept
A. Caldwell, E. Adli, L. Amorim +118
This report describes the conceptual steps in reaching the design of the AWAKE experiment currently under construction at CERN. We start with an introduction to plasma wakefield ac…
Generalized Transformation Design: metrics, speeds, and diffusion
Paul Kinsler, Martin W. McCall
We show that a unified and maximally generalized approach to spatial transformation design is possible, one that encompasses all second order waves, rays, and diffusion processes i…
Classical Dynamics of Free Electromagnetic Laser Pulses
S. Goto, R. W. Tucker, T. J. Walton
We discuss a class of exact finite energy solutions to the vacuum source-free Maxwell field equations as models for multi- and single cycle laser pulses in classical interaction wi…
Axionic suppression of plasma wakefield acceleration
D. A. Burton, A. Noble, T. J. Walton
Contemporary attempts to explain the existence of ultra-high energy cosmic rays using plasma-based wakefield acceleration deliberately avoid non-Standard Model particle physics. Ho…
Free Electron Lasers using `Beam by Design'
J. R. Henderson, L. T. Campbell, B. W. J. McNeil
Several methods have been proposed in the literature to improve Free Electron Laser output by transforming the electron phase-space before entering the FEL interaction region. By u…
Spatially Dispersive Inhomogeneous Electromagnetic Media with Periodic Structure
Jonathan Gratus, Matthew McCormack
Spatially dispersive (also known as non-local) electromagnetic media are considered where the parameters defining the permittivity relation vary periodically. Maxwell's equations g…
Stern-Gerlach surfing in laser wakefield accelerators
Stephen P. Flood, David A. Burton
We investigate the effects of a Stern-Gerlach-type addition to the Lorentz force on electrons in a laser wakefield accelerator. The Stern-Gerlach-type terms are found to generate a…
On the self-force in Bopp-Podolsky electrodynamics
Jonathan Gratus, Volker Perlick, Robin W. Tucker
In the classical vacuum Maxwell-Lorentz theory the self-force of a charged point particle is infinite. This makes classical mass renormalization necessary and, in the special relat…
The Dynamics of Compact Laser Pulses
S. Goto, R. W. Tucker, T. J. Walton
We discuss the use of a class of exact finite energy solutions to the vacuum source-free Maxwell equations as models for multi- and single cycle laser pulses in classical interacti…
Non-perturbative aspects of particle acceleration in non-linear electrodynamics
David A. Burton, Stephen P. Flood, Haibao Wen
We undertake an investigation of particle acceleration in the context of non-linear electrodynamics. We deduce the maximum energy that an electron can gain in a non-linear density…
